Public policy is often based on the predictions of disciplines known as the social sciences, that is, sociology, anthropology, and political science. Much of the criminal justice system is based on assumptions about how people will react to the threat of imprisonment or various efforts at rehabilitation. The so-called hard sciences (physics, chemistry, biology) are also used as the basis for laws and regulations where they can predict desired or undesired outcomes. For example, the regulation of nuclear power would not be useful unless it were based on nuclear physics.
II Tools for New Building Blocks, Networks, and Competition/Cooperation The typical toolkit has a few basic pieces that can be used to pound, pry, turn, or cut many different things. In part II we will outline three strategic tools for the communications sector that tell us how things work in almost every communications industry, in nearly every country. They are so versatile because they are based on the fundamentals of three processes at work in every industry: communication itself, networks, and competition and cooperation.
This required that the messages received by radar devices—the “ping” that was bounced off the moving target—be used to predict the future position of the detected enemy craft. This computational problem was solved independently in Russia, by A. N. Kolmogoroff, and in the United States, by Norbert Wiener (1948). 1 Building Blocks of the Information Theory Tool Building Block Definition Examples from the Communications Sector Sender The one attempting to send a message to one or more receivers Radio producer, e-mail sender Receiver Anyone—whether an intended recipient or not—who perceives the message Radio listener, e-mail recipient Encoding The process that puts the message into appropriate form for sending on the channel Changing to analog signal, digital signal Sending device A machine that puts the coded message into the channel Radio transmitter, computer Receiving device A machine that takes the coded message out of the channel Car radio, computer Decoding The process that puts the message into a form that is understandable by the receiver Analog signal becomes audible as music, digital signal becomes readable as text Channel The route through which the message travels.
