Urban management in the face of complexity: commuting networks in insular Italy
by Andrea De Montis, Simone Caschili, Alessandro Chessa, Michele Campagna
International Journal of Sustainable Development (IJSD), Vol. 13, No. 1/2, 2010

Abstract: Complex networks theory allows researchers to deal with systems characterised by uncertainty and unpredictability. It also enables investigating interactions between transport networks and their topology. Recently it has been used to analyse socio-economic processes in urban, regional, and environmental planning. In the light of these advances, the aim of this paper is to present the results of the application of complex networks theory techniques to the characterisation of topological, traffic and spatial properties of commuters' systems in insular Italy.
