We demonstrate that the self-similarity of some scale-free networks with respect to a simple degree-thresholding renormalization scheme finds a natural interpretation in the assumption that network nodes exist in hidden metric spaces. Clustering, i.e., cyc ...
Online social networks have gained importance in recent years. Furthermore, there is a need for designing smart applications for social networks which take into account the behaviour of dynamical processes over these networks. This requires structural know ...
A statistical physics perspective of complex networks: from the architecture of the Internet and the brain to the spreading of an epidemic Statistical physics has revealed itself as the ideal framework to describe large networks appearing in a variety of d ...
We propose a new model of small-world networks of cells with a time-varying coupling and study its synchronization properties. In each time interval of length /spl tau/ such a coupling is switched on with probability p and the corresponding switching rando ...
The topology of large social, technical and biological networks such as the World Wide Web or protein interaction networks has caught considerable attention in the past few years (reviewed in Newman 2003), and analysis of the structure of such networks rev ...
We consider the problem of analytically evaluating semantic interoperability in large-scale networks of schemas interconnected through pairwise schema mappings. Our heuristics are based on a graph-theoretic framework capturing important statistical propert ...
In this paper we investigate optimization of synchronization cost in undirected dynamical networks. To do so, proper weights are assigned to the networks’ edges considering node and edge betweenness centrality measures. The proposed method gives near-optim ...
Small-world networks embedded in Euclidean space represent useful cartoon models for a number of real systems such as electronic circuits, communication systems, the large-scale brain architecture and others. Since the small-world behavior relies on the pr ...
The framework of complex networks has been shown to describe adequately a wide class of complex systems made up of a large number of interacting units. In this framework, a node is associated to each unit and two nodes are connected by an edge if the two u ...
Data exchanges between various modules and tools raise interfacing difficulties in a multilayer environment. This aspect may become particularly critical in a distributed context. ...
