Connections. Modern societies are in many ways highly connected. Certain aspects of this phenomenon are frequently described as networks: social networks (of people linked by friendship or social interaction) computer networks (the Internet) document networks (World Wide Web) academic networks (collaborations, citations of scientific publications) transportation networks (road, rail, airline, subway) networks in biology (e.g., biochemical, ecological, or neural networks) financial networks (transactions between traders)... What do these structures have in common? How can they be distinguished?
Simple Forms of. In its simplest form, a network is just a collection of points (called vertices or nodes), some of which are joined in pairs (called edges or links). Many systems of interest are composed of individual parts that are in some way linked together. Such systems can be regarded as networks, and thinking about them in this way can often lead to new and useful insights. Network science studies the pattern of connections between the components of a system Naturally, the structure of the network can have a big impact on the behavior of a system. The connections in a social network, for example, affect how people learn, form opinions, or spread a disease.
Network Science A network is a simplified representation of a complex system by vertices and edges. The scientific study of networks is an interdisciplinary undertaking that combines ideas from mathematics, physics, biology, computer science, the social sciences and many other areas. Between these scientific fields, many tools have been developed for analyzing, modeling and understanding networks.
Network An example of a useful and important type of network measures is that of centrality. It is concerned with the question of how important a particular vertex or edge is in a networked system. Different concepts have suggested for capturing mathematically what it means to be central. A simple measure of the centrality of a vertex is its degree, i.e., the number of edges it is part of. Which measurements and calculations give meaningful answers for a particular system depends of course on the specific nature of the system and the questions one wants to ask.
Network Concepts Another interesting network concept is the small-world effect. It is concerned with the question of how far apart two randomly chosen points in a network typically are. Here,distance is usually measured by the number of edges one would need to cross over, when travelling along a path from one vertex to the other. In real world social networks the distance between people tends to be rather small. This observation and is known as the six degrees of separation in popular culture. This course is meant as an introduction to Network Science where, within the given time and space constraints, some but certainly not all of its interesting aspects will be discussed.
Examples of. Newman broadly divides the most commonly studied real world networks into four classes: technological networks, social networks, information networks and biological networks. There is of course some overlap between these classes. But it is an interesting exercise to list important examples within each class, and to describe their general structure, and the techniques used to discover and measure this structure in each example.
Technological. Technological networks rely on a physical infrastructure. In many cases, this infrastructure has been built over many decades It forms part of the backbone of modern societies. This includes road and other transportation networks, power grids, the telephone network, and more recently the Internet.

Social. The vertices of a social network are people, with edges representing some sort of social interaction. A social network s existence does not depend on social networking sites like facebook or twitter. Sociologists have studied social networks long before people started exhibiting their relations to others online. An affiliation network has two types of nodes, one type representing people and another type representing groups of people. In mathematical terms, an affiliation network is an example of a bipartite graph. The affiliation network can be projected onto the set of people, defining a new network which has only the people as vertices...
Information. An information network consists of data items which are linked to each other in some way. Example: relational databases. Sets of information (like scientific publications) have been linking to each other (e.g., through citations) long before computers were invented. However, links in digital form are easier to follow The (World Wide) Web. The WWW is probably the most wide spread and best known examples of an information network. Its nodes are web pages containing information in form of text and pictures, and its edges are the hyperlinks. Hyperlinks run in one direction only, from the page that contains the hyperlink to the page that is referenced. Therefore, the WWW is a directed network, a graph where each edge has a direction.

Biological. Biochemical networks represent molecular level patterns of interaction and control mechanisms in the biological cell: metabolic networks, protein-protein interaction networks and genetic regulatory networks. A neural network can be represented as a set of vertices, the neurons, connected by two types of directed edges, one for excitatory inputs and one for inhibiting inputs. Ecological networks are networks of ecological interactions between species.

Graphs. A graph can serve as a mathematical model of a network. Example As far as the network structure is concerned, this diagram contains the same information, without the distracting details of the US geography. The internet in December 1970. Nodes are computers, connected by a link if they can directly communicate with each other. At the time, only 13 computers participated in that network.
