"people-procedure-software-hardware-data" (was someone's previous answer) I don't know about that. Information theory is about the 3 c's : Compression, Correction, and Cryptography. Compression is about abbreviating a message to make it as efficient as possible to get across a telephone wire or some other channel. Like how to compress a CD audio track into an MP3 so you can upload it. Correction is about error correction and checksums to make sure the MP3 is put back together again properly. By the way, almost all transmission methods have loss, and are considered "noisy channels". The goal is a perfect message across and imperfect medium. Cryptography is about encoding and decoding for security. These all have to do with treating data as signals or symbols and seeing what you can do with those symbols in each of these realms. It doesn't matter what song the MP3 stores, and likewise, Information Theory is not concerned with any of the meanings in the compressed, corrected or encrypted data. So, even though "Information" is in the title, it isn't about meaning. Look up Claude Shannon, who is considered the father of Information Theory. The question was put to him by industry how much telephone wire they should install to do what they needed it to do, but have enough bandwidth so they wouldn't have to re-install the wire anytime soon. And he spawned an entire branch of mathematics that gave us the digital age.

How is the big bang theory is an example od scienctific theory?
Hello i am minakshi answer is that the big bang theory is an example of old scientific theory as big bang theory explains that there was an explosion but the isotropy and the homogenity of the universe is not explained by big bang theory to explain his we connect inflatation theory with big bang theory to explain it so the big bang theory is also an example of old scientific theory.

What is the scienific theory?
A scientific theory is a hypothesis that has been supported by much research, and is able to explain a wide variety of observations. During the process of formulating a theory, a hypothesis is refined as experiments yield new information. The purpose of a theory is to explain a scientific law.

Is waves theory explain the love between mother and her child?
I can't seem to find any information on this theory. Unless someone can post any links to info about a theory like this, I dunno. Unless you're referring to the theory about light and sound waves. If that's the case, then no. That theory does not explain love of any kind.

What attempts to explain cognitive development by observing and analyzing mental processes involved in perceiving information is it Social cognitive theory The information-processing?
The information-processing theory attempts to explain cognitive development by observing and analyzing mental processes involved in perceiving information, storing information in memory, and using that information to solve problems. Social cognitive theory, on the other hand, focuses on how cognitive processes are influenced by social factors, such as observational learning and modeling.
