We present the analysis of multiplicity distributions of charged secondary particles produced in minimum bias and central interactions of [sup 32]S and [sup 16]O at 200[ital A] GeV, [sup 16]O at 60[ital A] GeV, [sup 28]Si at 14.5[ital A] GeV, and protons at 800 GeV with nuclear emulsion in terms of the information entropy and higher generalized fractal dimensions. Comparisons of the [sup 28]Si data with Monte Carlo model VENUS and [sup 32]S data with FRITIOF model are also presented.
