Previous research has shown that innovation can have various sources and different forms. Innovation can thus be developed by different types of organizations or individuals for several reasons, and it can be related to product or process technologies. One ...
The goal of this master thesis is to analyze the structure of the commercial activities in the cities of Geneva and Barcelona. This study implemented a network‐based approach to predict the location of commercial activities, on the basis of which a tentati ...
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 ...
Complex dynamical networks are ubiquitous in many fields of science from engineering to biology, physics, and sociology. Collective behavior, and in particular synchronization,) is one of the most interesting consequences of interaction of dynamical system ...
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 ...
In this paper we present the results of an agent-based model of open innovation, which suggest the network knowledge advantage underlying open interfirm networks of innovation, as opposed to an advantage arising from the interfirm network structure. To dat ...
Much evidence identifies innovation as the main driver for companies to prosper, grow, and sustain a high profitability. New innovation models of so called ‘Open Innovation’ make companies rethink their innovation management, as it is assumed, that the imp ...
In a network industry like railways, major systemic innovations and new technological trajectories are tightly connected to national institutional frameworks and policies. The major transformation occurring in Europe brought by the liberalization and harmo ...

By considering the eigenratio of the Laplacian of the connection graph as a synchronizability measure, we propose a procedure for weighting dynamical networks to enhance their synchronizability. The method is based on node and edge betweenness centrality m ...
