| Abstract: |
The article presents a four-level communication model (physical, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic) that emphasizes reflexivity, conditionality, and abstraction, and applies general semantics to map signals and contexts. Topics include modeling and map-territory relations, levels of abstraction and conditionality; and communication systems as signal-processing channels with distortion. |
