Link prediction in a network is mostly based on information about the neighborhood topology of the nodes. Recently, the interest for hybrid link prediction approaches that combine topology information with information about ...

Several social computing participation strategies, such as crowdsensing and crowdsourcing, use mobile ad hoc or opportunistic networks to support the users activities. The unreliability and dynamism of these communication ...

The mobile ad hoc communication in highly dynamic scenarios, like urban evacuations or search-and-rescue processes, plays a key role in coordinating the activities performed by the participants. Particularly, counting on ...

Essential proteins/genes are indispensable to the survival or reproduction of an organism, and the deletion of such essential proteins will result in lethality or infertility. The identification of essential genes is very ...

This article presents a route choice model for public transit networks that incorporates variables related to network topology, complementing those found in traditional models based on service levels (travel time, cost, ...

This work reports a quantitative analysis to predicting the efficiency of distributed computing running in three models of complex networks: Barabási-Albert, Erdõs-Rényi and Watts-Strogatz. A master-slave computing model ...

Background: The identification of essential genes is important for the understanding of the minimal requirements for cellular life and for practical purposes, such as drug design. However, the experimental techniques for ...
