Abstract:
|
Transportation and mobility networks vary over many time and spatial scales and span international, inter-cultural and linguistic boundaries. The multi-scale nature and complexity of these networks are crucial features in the understanding of epidemic, contagion processes and the large scale spreading of emerging diseases. I will discuss the central statistical features of these networks and recently developed computational tools for the study, modeling and visualization of large scale epidemic spreading on transportation networks. Finally, I will review the impact of the complex features of mobility networks in the definition of the pattern and statistical properties of large scale epidemic outbreaks.
