Social phenomena are affected by the structure of networks consisting of personal relationships. In the present paper, the diffusion of information among people is examined. In particular, the relationship between the network structure and the dynamics is studied. First, several networks are...

Reduction in the scaling exponent of the frequency–magnitude power law of regional seismic activity as a precursor to sizable earthquakes has been widely documented and debated. Recently, postulation based on a modified sand-pile model has been proposed as a plausible explanation. The model...

In this paper, an evolution traffic network model considering the influence of the next-nearest neighbor is constructed. Using the model, we focus on studying the topology of the evolution traffic network in order to understand the traffic dynamics better. First, the influence of the...

Many algorithms have been presented to solve the traffic assignment problem. Recently, Bar-Gera introduced the concept of “last common node” into an origin-based algorithm to solve the traffic assignment problem. However, how to find the last common nodes has not been investigated in detail....

Synchronized neuronal activity has been observed at all levels of human and any other nervous systems and was suggested as particularly relevant in information processing and coding. In the present paper we investigate the synchronization of bursting neuronal activity. Motivated by the fact that...

We investigate a new efficient packet routing strategy which mitigates traffic congestion on complex networks. In order to avoid congestion, we minimize the maximum betweenness, which is a measure for concentration of routing paths passing through a node in the network. Danila et al. propose a...

To obtain the optimal number of communities is an important problem in detecting community structures. In this paper, we use the extended measurement of community detecting algorithms to find the optimal community number. Based on the normalized mutual information index, which has been used as a...

In recent years, both researchers and practitioners have devoted attention to environmental sustainability issues in the green supply industry, but, how to design the green logistic network in the eco-industrial system is missing. This article reports on the study of designing green logistic...
