The Structure and Function of Complex NetworksInspired by empirical studies of networked systems such as the Internet, social networks, and biological networks, researchers have in recent years developed a variety of techniques and models to help us understand or predict the behavior of these systems. Here we review developments in this ...

Complex Networks - Structure and DynamicsCoupled biological and chemical systems, neural networks, social interacting species, the Internet and the World Wide Web, are only a few examples of systems composed by a large number of highly interconnected dynamical units. The first approach to capture the global properties of such systems ...

Evolution of NetworksWe review the recent fast progress in statistical physics of evolving networks. Interest has focused mainly on the structural properties of random complex networks in communications, biology, social sciences and economics. A number of giant artificial networks of such a kind came into existence ...

Hierarchical Organization in Complex NetworksMany real networks in nature and society share two generic properties: they are scale-free and they display a high degree of clustering. We show that these two features are the consequence of a hierarchical organization, implying that small groups of nodes organize in a hierarchical manner into ...

Student-led learning at Calgary school - Canadian Coalition of Self-Directed LearningThere are no bells at Bishop Carroll High School ushering students onto their next class. There are no classes, for that matter, no timetables telling students where to be and what to study. For almost 40 years, the southwest Calgary high school has embraced self-directed learning by allowing ...
