Network Science

Abstract

OVERVIEW: (1) A committee of technical experts, military officers and R&D managers was assembled by the National Research Council to reach consensus on the nature of networks and network research. (2) It evaluated extensive data collected from the literature and from a large, diverse sample of active network researchers. (3) The data were analyzed to provide both general learning on networks and answers to specific questions about a field of Network Science as posed by the statement of task. (4) The resulting report was published in 2005 and describes a context, scope, content, and challenges for Network Science as a coherent field of investigation for the Army.
