## Abstract (arXiv)

Starting from the pioneering works of Shannon and Weiner in 1948, a plethora of works have been reported on entropy in different directions. Entropy-related review work in the direction of statistics, reliability and information science, to the best of our knowledge, has not been reported so far. Here we have tried to collect all possible works in this direction during the period 1948-2018 so that people interested in entropy, specially the new researchers, get benefited.
