Emergence of Complexity in Financial Networks
We present here a brief summary of the various possible applications of network theory in the field of finance. Since we want to characterize...

Characteristics of Biological Networks
Network principles describe uniformly systems as diverse as the cell or the Internet. The emergence of these networks is driven by self-organizing...

Classes of the Shortest Pathway Structures in Scale Free Networks
We study a problem of data packet transport between a pair of vertices on scale-free network, and introduce load of a vertex as the accumulated sum...
-
The Optimal Pathin an Erdős-Rényi Random Graph
We study the optimal distance $\ell_{\mbox{\scriptsize opt}}$ in...

Information Dynamics in the Networked World
We review three studies of information flow in social networks that help reveal their underlying social structure, how information spreads among them...
-
Clustering in Complex Networks
Real, mostly socially rooted networks have the tendency to form the simplest morphological structures observable: triangles, or in other words...
-
Boolean Modelingof Genetic Regulatory Networks
Biological systems form complex networks of interaction on several scales, ranging from the molecular to the ecosystem level. On the subcellular...

Nonlinear Instabilities in TCP-RED
With the growing size and popularity of the Internet, congestion control has emerged as an important problem. Poor management of congestion can...
-
Dynamics of Congestion Control
One reason for the success of TCP and its widespread usage in the Internet is its ability to control network congestion. A TCP source uses implicit...

2. Analysis of Switched and Impulsive Systems
The analysis will focus on the case where the switchings are governed by a finite state machine. This is because the common Lyapunov function method...

Modeling TCP/RED: a Dynamical Approach
Today’s Internet applications, such as World Wide Web, file transfer, Usenet news, and remote login, are delivered via Transmission Control Protocol...
-
On Dynamics of Transport Protocols Over Wide-Area Internet Connections
The Transport Control Protocol (TCP) is widely deployed over the Internet for reliably transporting data [27], and it accounts for a significant...

Case-based Medical Informatics
The “applied” nature distinguishes applied sciences from theoretical sciences. To emphasize this distinction, we begin with a general, meta-level...
-
Medical Diagnosis and Prognosis Based on the DNA Microarray Technology
Immense genomic data have been accumulated through various research activities such as the Human Genome Project. A genome is the entire collection of...

3. Stability of Linear Switched and Impulsive Systems
In the previous chapter, we have set up the basic framework for the stability analysis of switched and impulsive systems. The framework provides the...
