Network Definition
A graph G(N, L) (network topology) specifies how nodes are interconnected or related to other nodes by links.
Graph Type
directed?
weighted?
types of nodes and links?
EXAMPLE: Trees, Rings, Complete Graph
Basic Concepts
of an undirected/unweighted network
for simple graphs that are unweighted, undirected and without self-loops and no multiple links
Bounds:
Adjacency matrix A of a network:
Clustering Coefficient C
Distance
Distance d(n,m) between two nodes n and m = the number of links along the shortest path connecting them
Diameter of a network=
Average Distance L
Betweenness
Betweenness 𝐵 𝑙 of a link 𝑙: the number of shortest paths between all possible node pairs in 𝐺 that traverse the
link
Betweenness of a graph G:
Connectivity
Robustness
Star-shaped networks
L=2-N/2 (N>3)
C=0
L≈N/2K
C=3(K-2)/4(K-1)≈3/4
