New measures of this linkage are proposed (for individuals and for entire networks) and reasons why they are superior to some existing measures are detailed through examples.

Robustness Across the Structure of Sub-Networks: The Contrast Between Infection and Information Dynamics

In this paper we make a simple theoretical point using a practical issue as an example. The simple theoretical point is that robustness is not 'all or nothing': in asking whether a system is robust one has to ask 'robust with respect to what property?' and 'robust over what set of changes in the system?' The practical issue used to illustrate the point is an examination of degrees of linkage be...
