Network Theory

Networks take many forms and functions in our everyday lives through technology and transportation. As a result, Ana states, “this is not a paperless society… where would we be without transportation.” This is important because transportation does play a major role in how we live our everyday lives. No matter what, we all must travel …

Network

Networks can take many forms and it’s all around us. Anna Nagourney emphasizes the importance of networks and how it applies to science, architecture, finance, transportation,etc.  She stresses on how transportations networks are significant in our daily lives. Everyday, people use public transportation or their own cars to travel from point A to point B. …

Network theory

Networks can take many forms and functions in the audio it states that there are multiple networks and “We have networks like transportation networks, Manufacturing networks, Communication networks, and Energy networks  Anna Nagurney, The Science-Spanning Disciplines.” and different functions on the way we use them. For example, she stated that an example of how many …

Networks Many Forms and Functions

Networks can take many forms and functions without one really knowing how it happens. When we do our everyday things, networks are also doing their part in out lives. Anna Nagourney talks about transportation, applications, simple building evacuations being things that involve us without having our complete thought. As one lives in New York City …

Networks take the form of our everyday lives.

Without networks, there would be utter chaos; almost every form of technology would be as unstable, unreliable, and just about unusable to society. Our everyday interactions would be disrupted, Anna Nagurney mentions transportation as a type of network, which in itself faces many issues. As we all know, New York City subway lines are infamous …

Network Theory

How networks can take many forms and functions? Networks can take many forms and functions because, networks are complex systems. Networks can be made into different iterations because it’s so vast and can be compared in any aspect. Networks, as a whole, is revolved around society in the sense of architecture and economics, in Networks: …

Network Theory

Networks can take many forms and functions in many different ways. As mentioned by Anna Nagurney in “Networks: The Science-Spanning Disciplines” Nagurney mentions railroad networks, transportation networks, energy networks, water networks, and communication networks as many forms of networks that exist. Each and every type of these forms of networks work their own way, they …

Network Theory

When networks are brought up, one might think of computer networks, like your home networks, which has multiple devices connected to the same router. But there’s obviously different forms of networks. Like Nagurney mentioned in her talk, “Networks: The Science-Spanning Disciplines” (3:25), network science is the study of complex networks, like that of telecom networks, …

Networks

“Statistical mechanics taught us that intensive, systemsize-independent quantities offer some of the best measures of a system’s internal characteristics.” This quote from the article is interesting to pick at because it is basically saying that with the knowledge of what is already known, an independent quality of something can be used for a system’s own …

Network Theory

           According to Anna Nagurney and her speech about “Networks – the Science-Spanning Disciplines”, networks can be seen everywhere in our daily lives from economics and business to science, technology and education. A network is considered to be a measurable pattern of connections between different articles in a certain space. A network …
