The “new” Science of Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
In recent years, the analysis and modeling of networks, and also networked dynamical systems, have been the subject of considerable interdisciplinary interest, yielding several hundred papers in physics, mathematics, computer science, biology, economics, and sociology journals (Newman 2003c), as well as a number of books (Barabasi 2002, Buchanan 2002, Watts 2003). Here I review the major findings of this emerging field and discuss briefly their relationship with previous work in the social and mathematical sciences.

Retrofit of Heat Exchanger Networks Considering Existing Structure: A New Targeting Procedure
A new retrofit targeting procedure, based on pinch technology has been developed. The new procedure considers existing structure of a given network and finds the most compatible configuration with the network. To achieve this aim, the procedure uses a linear programming technique that maximize the compatibility. Good compatibility between old and new networks helps to make the best use of c...
متن کاملA Deterministic Multiple Key Space Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks via Combinatorial Designs
The establishing of a pairwise key between two nodes for encryption in a wireless sensor network is a challenging issue. To do this, we propose a new deterministic key pre-distribution scheme which has modified the multiple key space scheme (MKSS). In the MKSS, the authors define two random parameters to make better resilience than existing schemes. Instead of a random selection of these parame...
متن کاملPrediction of Kinematic Viscosity of Petroleum Fractions Using Artificial Neural Networks
In this work, artificial neural network (ANN) was utilized to develop a new model for the prediction of the kinematic viscosity of petroleum fractions. This model was generated as a function of temperature (T), normal boiling point temperature (Tb), and specific gravity (S). In order to develop the new model, different architectures of feed-forward type were examined. Finally, the optimum struc...

متن کاملAn improved particle swarm optimization with a new swap operator for team formation problem
Formation of effective teams of experts has played a crucial role in successful projects especially in social networks. In this paper, a new particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed for solving a team formation optimization problem by minimizing the communication cost among experts. The proposed algorithm is called by improved particle optimization with new swap operator (IPSONSO...
متن کاملForecasting Gold Price using Data Mining Techniques by Considering New Factors
Gold price forecast is of great importance. Many models were presented by researchers to forecast gold price. It seems that although different models could forecast gold price under different conditions, the new factors affecting gold price forecast have a significant importance and effect on the increase of forecast accuracy. In this paper, different factors were studied in comparison to the p...
