  2. Structural analog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_analog

    A structural analog, also known as a chemical analog or simply an analog, is a compound having a structure similar to that of another compound, but differing from it in respect to a certain component. [1] [2] [3] It can differ in one or more atoms, functional groups, or substructures, which are replaced with other atoms, groups, or ...

  3. Mass communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_communication

    In social science, mass communication is related to communication studies, but has its roots in sociology.Mass communication is "the process by which a person, group of people or organization creates a message and transmits it through some type of medium to a large, anonymous, heterogeneous audience."

  4. Molecular communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_communication

    The molecules are delivered into communications media such as air and water for transmission. The technique also is not subject to the requirement of using antennas that are sized to a specific ratio of the wavelength of the signal. Molecular communication signals can be made biocompatible and require very little energy. [2] [3]

  5. Comparison of analog and digital recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_analog_and...

    Since analog media is composed of molecules, the smallest microscopic structure represents the smallest quantization unit of the recorded signal. Natural dithering processes, like random thermal movements of molecules, the nonzero size of the reading instrument, and other averaging effects, make the practical limit larger than that of the ...

  6. Media linguistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_linguistics

    It studies the functioning of language in the media sphere, or modern mass communication presented by print, audiovisual, digital, and networked media. Media linguistics investigates the relationship between language use, which is regarded as an interface between social and cognitive communication practice, and public discourse conveyed through ...

  7. Media (communication) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_(communication)

    In communication, media (sing. medium) are the outlets or tools used to store and deliver semantic information or contained subject matter, described as content. [1] [2] The term generally refers to components of the mass media communications industry, such as print media (), news media, photography, cinema, broadcasting (radio and television), digital media, and advertising. [3]

  8. Molecular sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_sensor

    Schematic representation of a chemosensor consisting of a signalling moiety and a recognition moiety that are connected together in some way that facilitates the communication between the two parts. A molecular sensor or chemosensor is a molecular structure (organic or inorganic complexes) that is used for sensing of an analyte to produce a ...

  9. Analogical models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analogical_models

    A simple type of analogy is one that is based on shared properties; [1] [2] and analogizing is the process of representing information about a particular subject (the analogue or source system) by another particular subject (the target system), [3] in order "to illustrate some particular aspect (or clarify selected attributes) of the primary domain".
