  2. Hub (network science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hub_(network_science)

    In network science, a hub is a node with a number of links that greatly exceeds the average. Emergence of hubs is a consequence of a scale-free property of networks. [1]: 27 While hubs cannot be observed in a random network, they are expected to emerge in scale-free networks. The uprise of hubs in scale-free networks is associated with power ...

  3. Computer network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network

    Computer networking may be considered a branch of computer science, computer engineering, and telecommunications, since it relies on the theoretical and practical application of the related disciplines. Computer networking was influenced by a wide array of technological developments and historical milestones.

  4. Ethernet hub - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_hub

    An Ethernet hub, active hub, network hub, repeater hub, multiport repeater, or simply hub[a] is a network hardware device for connecting multiple Ethernet devices together and making them act as a single network segment. It has multiple input/output (I/O) ports, in which a signal introduced at the input of any port appears at the output of ...

  5. Network science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_science

    Network science is an academic field which studies complex networks such as telecommunication networks, computer networks, biological networks, cognitive and semantic networks, and social networks, considering distinct elements or actors represented by nodes (or vertices) and the connections between the elements or actors as links (or edges).

  6. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    Network science. Network topology is the arrangement of the elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a communication network. [1][2] Network topology can be used to define or describe the arrangement of various types of telecommunication networks, including command and control radio networks, [3] industrial fieldbusses and computer networks.

  7. Scale-free network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale-free_network

    Network science. A scale-free network is a network whose degree distribution follows a power law, at least asymptotically. That is, the fraction P (k) of nodes in the network having k connections to other nodes goes for large values of k as. where is a parameter whose value is typically in the range (wherein the second moment (scale parameter ...

  8. Network theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_theory

    Network science. In mathematics, computer science and network science, network theory is a part of graph theory. It defines networks as graphs where the vertices or edges possess attributes. Network theory analyses these networks over the symmetric relations or asymmetric relations between their (discrete) components.

  9. Star network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_network

    Star network. A star network is an implementation of a spoke–hub distribution paradigm in computer networks. In a star network, every host is connected to a central hub. In its simplest form, one central hub acts as a conduit to transmit messages. [1] The star network is one of the most common computer network topologies.
