Information Transfer
Information
transfer or presenting verbal accounts of facts and processes in pictorial
form and conversely changing graphic representations to writing, involves
learning how to0 restate a given body of material in different ways.
Information
transfer is used specifically in the contexts of narration, physical
description, listing and classifying, comparison and contrast, showing cause
and effect relationship and generalizing from numerical data.
Pictorial
representation gives quick viewing of a large amount of data, easily un
derstood than in written form and comparison becomes convenient.
Information can
be transferred in many ways.

The selection of medium depends on the information to be
transferred and the range or people to
be informed.
A picture is a thousand words. So sometimes more information
in an effective way can be transferred in a picture form than in words.
Actually each medium has its own advantage.
Another is that written form to be transferred into
pictorial form or vice versa.
2. Information transfer
In
telecommunications, information transfer is the process of moving
messages containing user
information from a
source to a sink via a Communication channel. In this sense, information transfer is
equivalent to data transmission which highlights more practical,
technical aspects.
