MATH-510 Senior Seminar in Applied Network Analysis
Our world is built of networks: the internet, social networks, transportation networks, communication networks, biological networks. Natural and useful question include "What makes a network robust?" "Can we predict where failures might occur?" "What can we do to slow propagation of viruses along a network?" This courses will cover abstract mathematical properties of networks that can help us answer these questions. These will be examined in the context of both theoretical and real world networks. Further, student groups will analyze and report on a real world network of their choice.
