    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_theory

    Theory can be seen as a way to map the world and make it navigable; communication theory gives us tools to answer empirical, conceptual, or practical communication questions. [1] Communication is defined in both commonsense and specialized ways. Communication theory emphasizes its symbolic and social process aspects as seen from two ...

  3. Cybernetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cybernetics

    Cybernetics is the transdisciplinary study of circular causal [1] processes such as feedback and recursion, where the effects of a system's actions (its outputs) return as inputs to that system, influencing subsequent action. [2]

  4. Models of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    Many models of communication include the idea that a sender encodes a message and uses a channel to transmit it to a receiver. Noise may distort the message along the way. The receiver then decodes the message and gives some form of feedback. [1] Models of communication simplify or represent the process of communication.

  5. Closed-loop communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-loop_communication

    Closed-Loop Communication in Aviation. Similar to the military, the Aviation profession also uses closed-loop communication. In this field, closed-loop communication is known as Crew Resource Management. Adopting this form of communication has minimized loss of separation, safety has improved, and fewer errors have occurred.

    [2] [5] [20] Communication is an endless process in the sense that people constantly decode and interpret their environment to assign meaning to it and encode possible responses to it. [5] [20] Models without a feedback loop, like the Shannon–Weaver model and Lasswell's model, are called linear transmission models. They contrast with ...

  8. Open loop (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_loop_(disambiguation)

    Control system, a system for controlling a signal or process that may operate with an open or closed feedback loop; Control theory, the theory of control systems, which involves the analysis of feedback loops; Feedback, the effect of having the output of a system affect its input and thus have an effect on its subsequent output

    The theory of CMM was developed in the mid-1970s by W. Barnett Pearce (1943–2011) and Vernon E. Cronen. Communication Action and Meaning was devoted to CMM, is a thorough explication of CMM, which Pearce and Cronen introduced to the common scholarly vernacular of the discipline.
