Abstract

This study attempts to find a theoretical basis for the development of digital cities. The ultimate function of a digital city is to support navigation in an environment. Navigation builds on meanings of the environment resulted from semiosis processes. These processes may affect each other when combined so that become able to communicate. Communication is performed with signs and depends on the behavioral co-ordination of communicating parties. The classical theories do not satisfactory explain communication. The paper introduces a new model of communication appropriate for computer treatment.
