Southeast European power transmission system is modeled by analyzing the system as an evolving grid, which is continually upgrading in order to satisfy the increasing load demand and certain reliability requirements. We adopt a model (known as OPA model) which satisfies two requirements. First,...

Rich-club and page-club coefficients and their null models are introduced for directed graphs. Null models allow for a quantitative discussion of the rich-club and page-club phenomena. These coefficients are computed for four directed real-world networks: Arxiv High Energy Physics paper citation...

We propose a metric for vulnerability of labeled graphs that has the following two properties: (1) when the labeled graph is considered as an unlabeled one, the metric reduces to the corresponding metric for an unlabeled graph; and (2) the metric has the same value for differently labeled fully...

A new family of networks, called entangled, has recently been proposed in the literature. These networks have optimal properties in terms of synchronization, robustness against errors and attacks, and efficient communication. They are built with an algorithm which uses modified simulated...

While development literature has come a long way in conceptualizing and measuring poverty multidimensionally, policy interventions to address it remain trapped in fragmented, sector-specific approaches. One of the main challenges in implementing integrated policy responses to multidimensional...
