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...

Statistical Properties of Chaos in Communication Networks
The behavior of communication networks, like the Internet is complex in many ways. This complexity may have many origins, including the topology of...

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...

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...

10. Future Research Directions and Potential Applications
Many interesting applications of switched and impulsive systems have been presented in the previous chapters. We shall conclude this book by...

Distributed Evidence Filtering in Networked Embedded Systems
Networked embedded sensor systems use the evidence gathered by spatially distributed heterogeneous sensor nodes possessing partial and different...
-
Distributed Control over Failing Channels
We give sufficient convex conditions for the existence of a distributed controller, with the same interconnection structure as the plant, when the...
-
A Cross-Layer Approach to Energy Balancing in Wireless Sensor Networks
We consider a many-to-one real-time sensor network where sensing nodes are to deliver their measurements to a base station under a time constraint...

Plenary Talk Notes on Multi-agent Motion Coordination: Models and Algorithms
Motion coordination is an extraordinary phenomenon in biological systems such as schools of fish and serves as a remarkable tool for man-made groups...
