Produktdetaljer
Biografisk notat
Vito Latora is Professor of Applied Mathematics and Chair of Complex Systems at Queen Mary University of London. Noted for his research in statistical physics and in complex networks, his current interests include time-varying and multiplex networks, and their applications to socio-economic systems and to the human brain. Vincenzo Nicosia is a Lecturer in Networks and Data Analysis at the School of Mathematical Sciences at Queen Mary University of London. His research spans several aspects of network structure and dynamics, and his recent interests include multi-layer networks and their applications to big data modelling. Giovanni Russo is Professor of Numerical Analysis in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the Universit... degli Studi di Catania, Italy, focusing on numerical methods for partial differential equations, with particular application to hyperbolic and kinetic problems.'This is a substantial text which will serve a broad section of readers who wish to gain insights into complex networks. Some effort will be needed to get the most out of this book but the reader who expends that effort will be well-rewarded. In turn, the authors are to be congratulated for the effort that they have made to produce such a delightful text.' K. Alan Shore, Contemporary Physics
'Thanks to its colloquial style, the extensive use of examples and the accompanying software tools and network data sets, this book is the ideal university-level textbook for a first module on complex networks. It can also be used as a comprehensive reference for researchers in mathematics, physics, engineering, biology and social sciences, or as a historical introduction to the main findings of one of the most active interdisciplinary research fields of the moment.'
