Over the past decade, investigations in different fields have focused on studying and understanding real networks, ranging from biological to social to technological. These networks, called complex networks, exhibit common topological features, such as a h ...
The articles in this special issue report on up-to-date advances in the broad area of information processing over graphs. Due to the highly cross-disciplinary nature of complex networks, the technical articles in this April 2013 issue of the IEEE Journal o ...
Unprecedented growth of online social networks (OSNs) increasingly makes privacy advocates and government agencies worrisome alike. In this paper, we propose My3, a privacy-friendly decentralized alternative for online social networking. The My3 system exp ...
Bicycle sharing systems exist in hundreds of cities around the world, with the aim of providing a form of public transport with the associated health and environmental benefits of cycling without the burden of private ownership and maintenance. Five cities ...
Coupled neural networks, the Internet, World Wide Web, social networks and interacting biological networks are few examples of systems which consist of a large number of interacting dynamical units. Collective behavior of such systems is a consequence of t ...
This paper shows how the implementation of a networkbased approach to predict the location of commercial activities was used in the urban areas of Geneva (Switzerland) and Lyon (France) to support political decision making. Retail stores are qualitatively ...
Recent experimental analysis has shown that some types of urban networks exhibit a low scatter reproducible relationship between average network flow and density, known as the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD). It has also been shown that heterogeneity ...
How can we localize the source of diffusion in a complex network? Due to the tremendous size of many real networks---such as the Internet or the human social graph---it is usually infeasible to observe the state of all nodes in a network. We show that it i ...
Using a representative national sample of personal networks, this article explores how the spatial dispersion of networks, residential mobility and social support are linked. Three issues will be addressed here. Firstly, how is the spatial dispersion of pe ...
A fundamental problem in wireless networks is determining the broadcast capacity, i.e., the maximum data transfer rate from a given node to every other node in a relay network. This paper studies the scaling of the broadcast capacity for a network with a s ...
