Lü J., Yu X., Chen G., Yu W. (Eds.) Complex Systems and Networks: Dynamics, Controls and Applications

Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2016. — 483 p. — (Understanding Complex Systems) — ISBN: 978-3-662-47823-3.Nowadays, networks exist everywhere. In the recent decade, complex networks have been widely investigated partly due to their wide applications in biological neural networks, ecosystems, metabolic pathways, the Internet, the WWW, electrical power grids, communication systems, etc., and partly due to their broad scientific progress in physics, mathematics, engineering, biology, etc. The key character for a complex network is that it can represent a large-scale system in nature, human societies, and technology with the nodes representing the individual agents and the edges representing the mutual connections. Thus, the research work on fundamental properties, such as dynamics, controls, and applications of various complex networks has become overwhelming recently.Discovering Cluster Dynamics Using Kernel Spectral Methods
