  2. Models of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    Shannon–Weaver model of communication [86] The Shannon–Weaver model is another early and influential model of communication. [10] [32] [87] It is a linear transmission model that was published in 1948 and describes communication as the interaction of five basic components: a source, a transmitter, a channel, a receiver, and a destination.

  3. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    The model allows transparent communication through equivalent exchange of protocol data units (PDUs) between two parties, through what is known as peer-to-peer networking (also known as peer-to-peer communication). As a result, the OSI reference model has not only become an important piece among professionals and non-professionals alike, but ...

  4. Application layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_layer

    An application layer is an abstraction layer that specifies the shared communication protocols and interface methods used by hosts in a communications network. [1] An application layer abstraction is specified in both the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) and the OSI model. [2]

  5. Source–message–channel–receiver model of communication

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source–message–channel...

    The SMCR model is usually described as a linear transmission model of communication. [4] [17] Its main focus is to identify the basic parts of communication and to show how their characteristics shape the communicative process. In this regard, Berlo understands his model as "a model of the ingredients of communication". [24]

  6. Lasswell's model of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasswell's_model_of...

    A model of communication is a simplified presentation that aims to give a basic explanation of the process by highlighting its most fundamental characteristics and components. [16] [8] [17] For example, James Watson and Anne Hill see Lasswell's model as a mere questioning device and not as a full model of communication. [10]

  7. Messaging pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messaging_pattern

    The communication channel is the infrastructure that enables messages to "travel" between the communicating parties. The message exchange patterns describe the message flow between parties in the communication process, there are two major message exchange patterns — a request–response pattern, and a one-way pattern.

  8. Text and conversation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_and_conversation_theory

    The concept to understanding structuration is to understand to duality of structure [4] The similarity of Giddens’ theory and conversation and text theory is a mutual-existing and causal relationship of communication. The main difference, between the two, is structuration theory explains how communication impacts the organization, text and ...

  9. Node-to-node data transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node-to-node_data_transfer

    In the OSI model it is handled by the lowest two layers, the data link layer and the physical layer. In most communication systems, the transmitting point applies source coding, [2] followed by channel coding, and lastly, line coding. This produces the baseband signal. The presence of filters may perform pulse shaping.
