Communication is the act of conveying intended meanings from one entity or group to another through the use of mutually understood signs and semiotic rules.[1]

The scientific study of communication can be divided into:[2]

  • Information theory - which studies the quantification, storage, and communication of information in general;
  • Communication studies - which concerns human communication;
  • Biosemiotics - which examines communication in and between living organisms in general.
