چکیده
Network connectivity refers to the quality of the connections that link every point in a community to every other point in a community. It is determined by the structure of the street network in terms of the pattern of streets and intersections, but the quality of those connections varies depending on the structure of the network (Handy, et al. 2003). Between any two points, a network might provide one or many connections, direct or indirect connections, connections for all modes or only some. Connectivity is a measure of the quality of the connections that the network provides. From the transportation standpoint, only connections to destinations are important, so network connectivity in this case is defined with respect to land use patterns and the locations of potential destinations.

Connectivity as a Measure of Power System Integrity
Measures of network structural integrity useful in the analysis and synthesis of power systems are discussed. Signal flow methodology is applied to derive an expression for the paths between sources and sinks in a power network. Connectivity and reach ability properties of the network are obtained using the minors of a modified connectivity matrix. Node-connectivity, branch connectivity and mix...
متن کاملToughness of the Networks with Maximum Connectivity
The stability of a communication network composed of processing nodes and communication links is of prime importance to network designers. As the network begins losing links or nodes, eventually there is a loss in its effectiveness. Thus, communication networks must be constructed to be as stable as possible, not only with respect to the initial disruption, but also with respect to the possible...

Mobile sensor networks rely heavily on inter-sensor connectivity for collection of data. Nodes in these networks monitor different regions of an area of interest and collectively present a global overview of some monitored activities or phenomena. A failure of a sensor leads to loss of connectivity and may cause partitioning of the network into disjoint segments. A number of approaches have be...

Wireless sensor networks are often located in areas where access to them is difficult or dangerous. Today, in wireless sensor networks, cluster-based routing protocols by dividing sensor nodes into distinct clusters and selecting local head-clusters to combine and send information of each cluster to the base station and balanced energy consumption by network nodes, get the best performance ...
