Semantic communication, regarded as the breakthrough beyond the Shannon paradigm, aims at the successful transmission of semantic information conveyed by the source rather than the accurate reception of each single symbol or bit regardless…
Information Theory concepts and methodologies conform the background of how communication systems are studied and understood. They are mainly focused on the source-channel-receiver problem and on the asymptotic limits of accuracy and…
The Shannon-Weaver model of linear information transmission is extended with two loops potentially generating redundancies: (i) meaning is provided locally to the information from the perspective of hindsight, and (ii) meanings can be…
One can study communications by using Shannon's (1948) mathematical theory of communication. In social communications, however, the channels are not "fixed", but themselves subject to change. Communication systems change by communicating…
Shannon's mathematical theory of communication defines fundamental limits on how much information can be transmitted between the different components of any man-made or biological system. This paper is an informal but rigorous introduction…
Semantic communication is regarded as the breakthrough beyond the Shannon paradigm, which transmits only semantic information to significantly improve communication efficiency. This article introduces a framework for generalized semantic…
There is a wide variety of message-passing communication models, ranging from synchronous ''rendez-vous'' communications to fully asynchronous/out-of-order communications. For large-scale distributed systems, the communication model is…
Semantic communication has emerged as a promising paradigm to address the challenges of next-generation communication networks. While some progress has been made in its conceptualization, fundamental questions remain unresolved. In this…
Enterprise information systems can be developed following a model-driven paradigm. This way, models that represent the organisational work practice are used to produce models that represent the information system. Current software…
Existing communication systems are mainly built based on Shannon's information theory which deliberately ignores the semantic aspects of communication. The recent iteration of wireless technology, the so-called 5G and beyond, promises to…
Despite the fact that Shannon and Weaver's Mathematical Theory of Communication was published over 70 years ago, all communication systems continue to operate at the first of three levels defined in this theory: the technical level. In this…
The 5-layer TCP and 7-layer OSI models are taught as high-level frameworks in which the various protocols that are used in computer networks operate. These models provide valid insights in the organization of network functionalities and…
In this paper, we consider a network communications problem in which multiple correlated sources must be delivered to a single data collector node, over a network of noisy independent point-to-point channels. We prove that perfect…
Classical communication paradigms focus on accurately transmitting bits over a noisy channel, and Shannon theory provides a fundamental theoretical limit on the rate of reliable communications. In this approach, bits are treated equally,…

We propose communication pattern logic. A communication pattern describes how processes or agents inform each other, independently of the information content. The full-information protocol in distributed computing is the special case…
With the wide spread of Internet services, developers and users need a greater understanding of the technology of networking. Acquiring a clear understanding of communication protocols is an important step in understanding how a network…
The last seventy years have witnessed the transition of communication from Shannon's theoretical concept to current high-efficient practical systems. Classical communication systems address the capability-deficiency issue mainly by…
Humans communicate using systems of interconnected stimuli or concepts -- from language and music to literature and science -- yet it remains unclear how, if at all, the structure of these networks supports the communication of information.…
This paper introduces a model of self-organization between communication and topology in social networks, with a feedback between different communication habits and the topology. To study this feedback, we let agents communicate to build a…
