Evolutionary Dynamics of Complex Communications Networks

This book focuses on all aspects of modern network analysis and design, aiming at presenting a thorough overview of the contemporary design approaches according to the viewpoint of Network Science and Complex Network analysis. This book takes a more radical perspective than previous books by establishing a top-bottom approach where elements of the higher layer are exploited for directly modifying the lowest physical topology, thus closing the design loop in an evolutionary fashion, similar to the one observed in natural processes.
