abstract background: in the age of communication and media that families are rapidly driven towards using satellite channels and other media, considering family health in this regard is essential. a determinant of health is marital satisfaction. the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between watching satellite channels and intimacy and marital satisfaction in isfahan, iran. m...

To achieve an effective and efficient way of disseminating information to ever growing communication channels, we propose an approach that separates the information and communication channels and interlinks them with an intermediary component. The separation enables various dimensions to reuse the information and communication channels in transactional communication. In this paper we introduce ...

The purpose of this study is to assess Farmers’ attitude toward the soil conservation practices in the Kushk-Abad catchment basins in the province of Khorasan Razavi. A sample of 200 farmers was randomly selected from 1200 farmers living in Kardeh catchment basin. Data collection was done through a questionnaire that was administered in 2014. Validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by a pan...

Annotation: Analysis of physiological properties of the nerve fibers, associated with their specialized function – excitation transmission, is done. Possibility in principle of the same principles' usage in the communication channels is established. It is shown that characteristics of nerve fibers as communication channels are comparable to characteristics of existing wire transmission media of...

We consider interactive communication performed over two simple types of noisy channels: binary error channels with noiseless feedback and binary erasure channels. In both cases, the noise model is adversarial. Assuming at most εfraction of the bits can be corrupted, we show coding schemes that simulate any alternating interactive protocol with rate 1 − Θ(H(ε)). All our simulations are simple, ...

Quantum communication between nodes in quantum networks plays an important role in quantum information processing. Here, we proposed the use of the expected number of quantum channels as a measure of the efficiency of quantum communication for quantum networks. This measure quantified the amount of quantum information that can be teleported between nodes in a quantum network, which differs from...

Covert communication refers to the process of communicating data through a channel that is neither designed, nor intended to transfer information. Traditionally, covert channels are considered as security threats in computer systems and a great deal of attention has been given to countermeasures for covert communication schemes. The evolution of computer networks led the communication community...

Consumers share word of mouth face to face, over social media, and through a host of other communication channels. But do these channels affect what people talk about and, if so, how? Laboratory experiments, as well as analysis of almost 20,000 everyday conversations, demonstrate that communicating via oral versus written communication affects the products and brands consumers discuss. Compared...
