the two terms information and communication have some ambiguities. yet, there is not a consensus on their definitions. but they have some common characteristics, which make them be used interchangeably, information is the basic element for communication. information, inevitably. does net end to communication while when there is communication, there is information 100. communication is the natur...

conclusions according to the results, parents need accurate information about the health and the death of their neonates in the nicu. they also need to communicate with healthcare professionals and their babies. communication is regarded as a channel for obtaining information. therefore, the healthcare team needs to address these families’ needs and attempt to fulfill their requirements in neon...

CHANNEL CODING FOR NETWORK COMMUNICATION: AN INFORMATION THEORETIC PERSPECTIVE Channel coding helps a communication system to combat noise and interference by adding “redundancy” to the source message. Theoretical fundamentals of channel coding in point-topoint systems have been intensively studied in the research area of information theory, which was proposed by Claude Shannon in his celebrate...

This paper formalizes the communication of agents with modal operators in arrow logic. A communication between agents consists of an agent's utterance and the other agent's perception, thus, both of the utterance and the perception are regarded as parts of a communication channel between agents. Information is regarded as a propositional content of a sentence. An information channel where infor...

In many communication situations, the transmitter and the receiver must be designed without a complete knowledge of the probability law governing the channel over which transmission takes place. Various models for such channels and their corresponding capacities are surveyed. Special emphasis is placed on the encoders and decoders which enable reliable communication over these channels.

the brain – computer interface (bci) provides a communicational channel between human and machine. most of these systems are based on brain activities. brain computer-interfacing is a methodology that provides a way for communication with the outside environment using the brain thoughts. the success of this methodology depends on the selection of methods to process the brain signals in each pha...

(0.1) The basic model of communication is that of sending information between communication partners, Alice and Bob say, who communicate through some channel, which might be anything as, for example, a telephone line, radio, an audio compact disc, a keyboard, and so on. This leads to the following questions: Exercise (11.1) • Information theory. What is information? How much information can be ...

This paper presents an information theory based detection framework for covert channels. We first show that the usual notion of interference does not characterize the notion of deliberate information flow of covert channels. We then show that even an enhanced notion of “iterated multivalued interference” can not capture flows with capacity lower than one bit of information per channel use. We t...
