Controlling polymer network topology
Chapter 1: Introduction to Polymer Network Topology on a (Macro)Molecular Level Polymer network topology, comprising the ways in which strands and junctions are connected in polymer networks, plays a critical role in dictating many material properties. Here we discuss classical challenges in the …

Statistical analysis of protein interaction network topology
Complex networks arise in diverse areas of natural and social sciences and network topology is a key determinant of such systems. In this work we investigate the protein-protein interaction network of the KSHV herpesvirus, which is the first viral system available, and compare it to a prototypical …

Dynamic Reconfiguration of Network Topology in Optical Networks
Dynamic reconfiguration of the logical topology of a network is generally used to adjust the shape of the network to adhere to changes in traffic. In this thesis the logical topology reconfiguration problem for a WDM network is combined with the multi-path routing of traffic throughout the network. …

Disruption Information, Network Topology and Supply Chain Resilience
… new type of quantitative framework for assessing network resilience. This framework includes three basic elements: robustness, recoverability and resilience, which can be assessed with respect to different performance measures. Then we present a comprehensive analysis on how network structure and …

Discovering network topology by correlating end-to-end delay measurements
Conventional methods of discovering network topology require the cooperation of network elements. We present a method of network topology discovery based solely upon end-to-end delay measurements that requires only the cooperation of end systems. Previous work using end-to-end measurements has …

OPTIMIZING RAIL NETWORK TOPOLOGY ATTRIBUTES FOR TRACK RECLASSING, ACQUISITION AND REPURPOSING
… freight and passengers. Given the mature rail network, the network's enhancement is often done by reclassing or repurposing existing rails or acquiring new rails. This thesis focuses on optimizing the topology of a network and proposes a methodology to optimize its efficiency using track …

Effects of stream network topology on fish assemblage structure and bioassessment sensitivity in the mid-Atlantic highlands, USA
Stream fish assemblages exist within stream networks defined by the size and proximity of connected streams (i.e., stream network topology). The spatial position of sites within stream networks may therefore regulate opportunities for fish dispersal to access distant resources or colonize "new" …

An investigation into expanding the capabilities of peer-to-peer networks: combining centralized network infrastructure into decentralized peer-to-peer network topology
… signalling for session management over wireless networks. It’s the basis of a wide range of IP multimedia services. SIP relies on centralized servers according to its standard specifications and current usage. However, server based approaches are typically non-scalable as they may involve a large …
