leading figures in media, communications, information theory, AI and A-Life,
advanced media technologies etc.
Remember, there is no such thing as ‘the
Shannon AND Weaver’ Theory of Communication – only 2 separate
papers published one year apart when Weaver offered a clever gloss
(re-interpretation) for human communication issues, of Shannon’s ideas
about the efficient transmitting of information (coding) in telephone systems:
And here they are…
Claude E Shannon's classic paper: A
Mathematical Theory of Communication
Warren Weaver’s much used 1949 commentary on
Shannon’s work
Here
is a good explanation of how the British government system
work – you need to know this sort of thing as general knowledge.
Useful site listing all of the Government Departments
