Abstract

A network is defined as a collection of points (called nodes or vertices) joined together in pairs by lines called edges. Many systems in physics, engineering, biology and social sciences can be thought of as networks. An array of coupled systems can be considered as a network where the nodes represent the elements or units of the system and the edges represent the interactions or couplings between them. Networks of coupled systems are used to model biological oscillator networks [1–5], excitable media [6], neural networks [7–10] and genetic networks [11–13]. A network composed of a number of interacting systems (identical or nonidentical) often forms a complex dynamical system with new fascinating properties that are not realizable in the individual systems. The fascinating properties include synchronous oscillations, induced oscillations, fast system response, computational power and so on.
