	HFCL TUTORIAL
		Communication is a process that serves to connect senders and receivers of messages in space and time.
		Although human beings tend to be interested primarily in the study of human communication, the process is present in all living things and, it can be argued, in all things.
		Human communication takes place within, and cannot be separated from, the complex social environments within which all communicators must live.

	Communication - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Seeking to define "communication" as a static word or unified discipline may not be as important as understanding communication as a family of resemblances with a plurality of definitions as Ludwig Wittgenstein had put forth.
		This form of communication formed by a dyad and larger is sometimes referred to as the psychological model of communication where in a message is sent by a sender through channel to a receiver.
		Human spoken and written languages can be described as a system of symbols (sometimes known as lexemes) and the grammars (rules) by which the symbols are manipulated.

	Chimpanzee Communication
		Human speech is commonly recognized as the dividing line between ourselves and the rest of the animal world.
		This level of communication comes from chimps' deep understanding of the social world around them, which means that each chimp must be able mentally to model the impact of its own actions on the group as well as being able to guess the intentions of others (McCrone 150).
		The desire and potential for communication of specific ideas is there The conclusion may be drawn that early man about two million years ago must have been at least as socially advanced as the modern chimp, and has since evolved to the language-speaking species we are today.

	Multimedia Developers Can Learn from the History of Human Communication (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Whenever possible, the initiator of the communication has employed whatever additional methods were available to enhance the communication and make it as effective as possible.
		This attention to audience, rather than to the self of the communicator (the actor) and to the content of the message (the script), is key to the creation of effective communication.
		Music, both as a direct and a symbolic means of communication in songs and in background music, was combined with dance and theater to increase the effectiveness of the communication.

	Communication
		Students in the Department of Communication examine a variety of perspectives on human symbolic behavior, including the history of rhetorical theory and criticism; persuasion in contemporary public discourse; the dynamic processes of interpersonal, organizational, and intercultural communication; and the processes and effects of communication via print and electronic media.
		The contemporary discipline of communication, deeply rooted in the classical Greek tradition of rhetorical theory, history, and practice, extends this rhetorical base to critical investigation and generation of human communication theory in a variety of contexts.
		Communication majors take an introductory course that examines the major concepts and themes of these three subject areas, two courses that integrate more advanced theory with practical experience, and two courses in research methods -- one quantitative and one qualitative.

	Linguistics 001 -- Lecture 25: Human and non-human communication
		One clear evolutionary puzzle is why -- if communication systems are as useful as we generally think they are -- the rest of the animal kingdom seems to have put so little emphasis on elaborating them beyond this size of a few tens of hard-wired elements.
		In addition, human communication -- by means of spoken language or in other ways -- seems to involve a much better-developed "theory of mind", involving more conplex and abstract models of others' knowledge, beliefs, intentions and goals, and much more complex and systematic use of these models to plan sequences of communicative acts.
		At the same time, human facial expression, (aspects of) human "body language", and (aspects of) human voice modulation in speaking, seem quite similar in kind to animal displays, and indeed similar in detail in many cases to the expressions and gestures of other primates.

	Bridging Media: Computers and Human Communication
		This paper projects impacts of prospective computer media on human communication based on a theoretical perspective that argues such prediction is possible given knowledge of a medium's characteristics.
		Face to face communication retains its dominance, aided by technology that allows people to "beam" from one place to another at the speed of some subatomic transport vehicle and technology that allows city sized starships to travel across the galaxy at warp speeds.
		This paper attempts to project the kinds of impact computer media will have on human communication in very general terms, based on a theoretical perspective that argues such prediction is possible and typology of media that creates a media space in which it is possible to project other media.

	Understanding human communication-Effective communications-Interactive communications-Ong's view of communications (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Human communication, verbal or other, differs from the conventional or "medium" model most basically in that it is interactive.
		In real human communication, however the sender has to be not only in the sender position but also in the receiver position before he or she can send anything.
		The practical implications for effective communications are significant.When speakers forget or ignore the interactive nature of communication, as frequently occurs in organizations where speakers mistake their hiearchical power over their employees for an actual capacity to force listeners to listen, the outcome is predictably diastrous.

	International Workshop on Communication between Human and Artificial Agents, IAT 2006, Hongkong (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The ability to communicate in a complex manner with others, to exchange ideas and thoughts, to convey factual information as well as wishes, goals, and plans, to issue commands, instructions and questions, and to express emotions and interact on a social level, is one of the most important and distinguishing aspects of humankind.
		They have been shown to be effective for communication among agents in multi-agent systems, or for simple human-agent interaction, but they are far from reflecting the complexity of human communication.
		The ultimate goal of this endeavour is to bridge the gap between the richness, complexity and expressiveness of human communication, and the (in)ability of artificial agents to deal with it and to (inter)act adequately within cooperation with humans.
