Dynamics On and Of Complex Networks: Applications to Biology, Computer Science, and the Social Sciences

In the context of network theory, Complex networks can be defined as a collection of nodes connected by edges representing various complex int- actions among the nodes. Almost any large-scale system, be it natural or man-made, can be viewed as a complex network of interacting entities, which is dynamically evolving over time. Naturally occurring networks include - ological, ecological and social networks (e. g. , metabolic networks, gene r- ulatory networks, protein interaction networks, si...
