Abstract
The emergence of a globalized and integrated network economy in recent years has generated a broad interest in studies which attempt to identify the opportunities and challenges offered by these developments. Consequently, the relevance of advanced network systems of a transboundary and complex nature has arisen (see, e.g., Batten et al. 1995; Domanski 1999; Fischer and Nijkamp 1999), together with the awareness that the next century promises a better understanding of the behaviour of economic and social systems.
