Indlæser... Linked: How Everything Is Connected to Everything Else and What It Meansaf Albert-László Barabási
   Books Read in 2018 (3,218) Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog.  Gabriyella | Jan 16, 2022 |   As a student of mathematical modeling, I found this book thought-provoking and interesting. Not a stranger to networks, I would say this book still managed to have some effect on me. It would be enough for me to credit this book with re-sparking my interest in the topics of network analysis and mathematical models. A bit on the long-winded side at times, however. But this might be because it is not my first time with networks. 3.5-4/5 (  ) nonames | Jan 14, 2022 | The finding is that if you have a dense network, picking a network node at random and eliminating it will not bring down the network… even if you do so for something like 80% of the network. But removing just 15-20% of the network hubs will cause the whole thing to come crashing down. ( ) jarlalex | Nov 25, 2020 | The book gives a very nice introduction to the world of complex network, covering the random models and moving on to what the authors have discovered and named scale-free organization. The mathematics are far from being heavy and down-to-the-ground examples are always reported to help the reader connecting to her daily life. A very nice book! ( ) ferrarini_luca | Dec 6, 2016 | Aquesta lectura introdueix els no iniciats a la teoria de xarxes, no tant des d'un punt de vista purament matemàtic (que també), com sobretot conceptual. Deixarà satisfets tant els interessants en el punt de vista més analític com els que vulguin un anàlisi més antropològic. Potser ho fa perquè no entre molt en detall en cap de les dues vessants, però com a lectura indtroductòria és més que recomanable.

We've long suspected that we live in a small world, where everything is connected to everything else. Indeed, networks are pervasive--from the human brain to the Internet to the economy to our group of friends. These linkages, it turns out, aren't random. All networks, to the great surprise of scientists, have an underlying order and follow simple laws. Understanding the structure and behavior of these networks will help us do some amazing things, from designing the optimal organization of a firm to stopping a disease outbreak before it spreads catastrophically. In Linked, Barabási, a physicist whose work has revolutionized the study of networks, traces the development of this rapidly unfolding science and introduces us to the scientists carrying out this pioneering work. These "new cartographers" are mapping networks in a wide range of scientific disciplines, proving that social networks, corporations, and cells are more similar than they are different, and providing important new insights into the interconnected world around us. This knowledge, says Barabási, can shed light on the robustness of the Internet, the spread of fads and viruses, even the future of democracy. No library descriptions found. |

Ezek a hálózatok, összefüggő rendszerek az otthonunkon kívül már sokkal természetesebbek és elterjedtebbek, és sokszor úgy szövik át a mindennapjainkat, hogy szinte nem is tudunk róluk. Pedig érdemes megvizsgálni ezeket a mechanizmusokat közelebbről is a könyv szerzője szerint, mert az eredmények segítségünkre lehetnek vírusok leküzdése, a gazdasági válságok kezelése, a terrorizmus visszaszorítása vagy akár az emberi társadalom gondjainak megoldása terén.
