Networks are convenient mathematical models to represent the structure of complex systems, from cells to societies. In the last decade, multilayer network science – the branch of the field dealing with units interacting in multiple distinct ways, simultaneously – was demonstrated to be an effective modeling and analytical framework for a wide spectrum of empirical systems, from biopolymers networks (such as interactome and metabolomes) to neuronal networks (such as connectomes), from social networks to urban and transportation networks. In this Element, a decade after one of the most seminal papers on this topic, the authors review the most salient features of multilayer network science, covering both theoretical aspects and direct applications to real-world coupled/interdependent systems, from the point of view of multilayer structure, dynamics and function. The authors discuss potential frontiers for this topic and the corresponding challenges in the field for the next future.

This is an overview and structured analysis of contemporary multilayer network visualization. It surveys techniques as well as tools, tasks, and analytics from within application domains. It also identifies research opportunities and examines outstanding challenges along with potential solutions and future research directions for addressing them. Visual Analysis of Multilayer Networks is not only for visualization researchers, but for those who need to visualize multilayer networks in the domain of complex systems, as well as anyone solving problems within application domains. The emergence of multilayer networks as a concept from the field of complex systems provides many new opportunities for the visualization of network complexity, and has also raised many new exciting challenges. The multilayer network model recognizes that the complexity of relationships between entities in real-world systems is better embraced as several interdependent subsystems (or layers) rather than a simple graph approach. Despite only recently being formalized and defined, this model can be applied to problems in the domains of life sciences, sociology, digital humanities, and more. Within the domain of network visualization there already are many existing systems, which visualize data sets having many characteristics of multilayer networks, and many techniques, which are applicable to their visualization.

The science of networks represented a substantial change in the way we see natural and technological phenomena. Now we have a better understanding that networks are, in most cases, networks of networks or multi-layered networks. This book provides a summary of the research done during one of the largest and most multidisciplinary projects in network science and complex systems (Multiplex). The science of complex networks originated from the empirical evidence that most of the structures of systems such as the internet, sets of protein interactions, and collaboration between people, share (at least qualitatively) common structural properties. This book examines how properties of networks that interact with other networks can change dramatically. The authors show that, dependent on the properties of links that interconnect two or more networks, we may derive different conclusions about the function and the possible vulnerabilities of the overall system of networks. This book presents a series of novel theoretical results together with their applications, providing a comprehensive overview of the field.

This book provides the basis of a formal language and explores its possibilities in the characterization of multiplex networks. Armed with the formalism developed, the authors define structural metrics for multiplex networks. A methodology to generalize monoplex structural metrics to multiplex networks is also presented so that the reader will be able to generalize other metrics of interest in a systematic way. Therefore, this book will serve as a guide for the theoretical development of new multiplex metrics. Furthermore, this Brief describes the spectral properties of these networks in relation to concepts from algebraic graph theory and the theory of matrix polynomials. The text is rounded off by analyzing the different structural transitions present in multiplex systems as well as by a brief overview of some representative dynamical processes. Multiplex Networks will appeal to students, researchers, and professionals within the fields of network science, graph theory, and data science.

The adoption of multilayer analysis techniques is rapidly expanding across all areas of knowledge, from social sciences (the first facing the complexity of such structures, decades ago) to computer science, from biology to engineering. However, until now, no book has dealt exclusively with the analysis and visualization of multilayer networks. Multilayer Networks: Analysis and Visualization provides a guided introduction to one of the most complete computational frameworks, named muxViz, with introductory information about the underlying theoretical aspects and a focus on the analytical side. Dozens of analytical scripts and examples to use the muxViz library in practice, by means of the Graphical User Interface or by means of the R scripting language, are provided. In addition to researchers in the field of network science, as well as practitioners interested in network visualization and analysis, this book will appeal to researchers without strong technical or computer science background who want to learn how to use muxViz software, such as researchers from humanities, social science and biology: audiences which are targeted by case studies included in the book. Other interdisciplinary audiences include computer science, physics, neuroscience, genetics, urban transport and engineering, digital humanities, social and computational social science. Readers will learn how to use, in a very practical way (i.e., without focusing on theoretical aspects), the algorithms developed by the community and implemented in the free and open-source software muxViz. The data used in the book is available on a dedicated (open and free) site.

Society increasingly depends on networks for almost every aspect of daily life. Over the past decade, network science has flourished tremendously in understanding, designing, and utilizing networks. Particularly, network science has shed light on the role of the underlying network topology on the dynamic behavior of complex systems, including cascading failure in power-grids, financial contagions in trade market, synchronization, spread of social opinion and trends, product adoption and market penetration, infectious disease pandemics, outbreaks of computer worms, and gene mutations in biological networks. In the last decade, most studies on complex networks have been confined to a single, often homogeneous network. An extremely challenging aspect of studying these complex systems is that the underlying networks are often heterogeneous, composite, and interdependent with other networks. This challenging aspect has very recently introduced a new class of networks in network science, which we refer to as multilayer and interconnected networks. Multilayer networks are an abstract representation of interconnection among nodes representing individuals or agents, where the interconnection has a multiple nature. For example, while a disease can propagate among individuals through a physical contact network, information can propagate among the same individuals through an online information-dissemination network. Another example is viral information dissemination among users of online social networks; one might disseminate information received from a Facebook contact to his or her followers on Twitter. Interconnected networks are abstract representations where two or more simple networks, possibly with different dynamics over them, are interconnected to each other. For example, in zoonotic diseases, a virus can move from the network of animals, with some transmission dynamics, to a human network, with possibly very different dynamics. As communication systems are evolving more and more toward integration with computing, sensing, and control systems, the theory of multilayer and interconnected networks seems to be crucial to successful communication systems development in cyber-physical infrastructures. Among the most relevant dynamics over networks is epidemic spreading. Epidemic spreading dynamics over simple networks exhibit a clear example where interaction between non-complex dynamics at node level and the topology leads to a complex emergent behavior. A substantial line of research during the past decade has been devoted to capturing the role of the network on spreading dynamics, and mathematical tools such as spectral graph theory have been greatly useful for this goal. For example, when the network is a simple graph, the dominant eigenvalue and eigenvector of the adjacency matrix have been proven to be key elements determining spreading dynamics features, including epidemic threshold, centrality of nodes, localization of spreading sites, and behavior of the epidemic model close to the threshold. More generally, for many other dynamics over a single network, dependency of dynamics on spectral properties of the adjacency matrix, Laplacian matrix, or some other graph-related matrix, is well-studied and rigorously established, and practical applications have been successfully derived. In contrast, limited established results exist for dynamics on multilayer and interconnected networks. Yet, an understanding of spreading processes over these networks is very important to several realistic phenomena in modern integrated and composite systems, including cascading failure in power grids, financial contagions in trade market, synchronization, spread of social opinion and trends, product adoption and market penetration, infectious disease pandemics, and outbreak in computer worms. This dissertation focuses on spreading processes on multilayer and interconnected networks, organized in three parts. The first part develops a general framework for modeling epidemic spreading in interconnected and multilayer networks. The second part solves two fundamental problems: introducing the concept of an epidemic threshold curve in interconnected networks, and coexistence phenomena in competitive spreading over multilayer networks. The third part of this dissertation develops an epidemic model incorporating human behavior, where multi-layer network formulation enables modeling and analysis of important features of human social networks, such as an information-dissemination network, as well as contact adaptation. Finally, I conclude with some open research directions in the topic of spreading processes over multilayer and interconnected networks, based on the resulting developments of this dissertation.

Around the globe, there is an increasingly urgent need to provide opportunities for learners to embrace complexity; to develop the many skills and habits of mind that are relevant to today's complex and interconnected world; and to make learning more connected to our rapidly changing workplace and society. This presents an opportunity to (1) leverage new paradigms for understanding the structure and function of teaching and learning communities, and (2) to promote new approaches to developing methods, curricular materials, and resources. Network science - the study of connectivity - can play an important role in these activities, both as an important subject in teaching and learning and as a way to develop interconnected curricula. Since 2010, an international community of network science researchers and educators has come together to raise the global level of network literacy by applying ideas from network science to teaching and learning. Network Science in Education - which refers to both this community and to its activities - has evolved in response to the escalating activity in the field of network science and the need for people to be able to access the field through education channels. Network Science In Education: Transformational Approaches in Teaching and Learning appeals to both instructors and professionals, while offering case studies from a wide variety of activities that have been developed around the globe: the creation of entirely new courses and degree programs; tools for K-20 learners, teachers, and the general public; and in-depth analysis of selected programs. As network-based pedagogy and the community of practice continues to grow, we hope that the book's readers will join this vibrant network education community to build on these nascent ideas and help deepen the understanding of networks for all learners.
