Based on

(i) Shannon information,

(ii) energy-time quantization rule, and

(iii) quasi-static information-energy correspondence,

a new general rule for the quantization of quasi-static information states in a non-equilibrium environment is provided if the distance from equilibrium ΔS and the mean temperature of the environment T are known as a function of time. The method is applied to the expanding universe in order to find the eigen-informations of long-lived physical structures that are supported by the universe (or a local environment therein) at any given epoch, thus providing an information-theoretical basis for the rise of complexity with time that embodies cosmic evolution.
