The knowledge-base evolution in biotechnology: A social network analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply the methodological tools typical of social network analysis (SNA) within an evolutionary framework, to investigate the knowledge base dynamics of the biotechnology sector, where knowledge is here considered a collective good represented as a co-relational and a retrieval-interpretative structure.

A Set of Measures of Centrality Based on Betweenness
Linton C. Freeman
- 01 Mar 1977
TL;DR: A family of new measures of point and graph centrality based on early intuitions of Bavelas (1948) is introduced in this paper, which define centrality in terms of the degree to which a point falls on the shortest path between others and there fore has a potential for control of communication.

Optimum Locations of Switching Centers and the Absolute Centers and Medians of a Graph
TL;DR: It is shown that the optimum location of a switching center is always at a vertex of the communication network while the best location for the police station is not necessarily at an intersection.
