%T Grouping complex systems: a weighted network comparative analysis %P 1-20 %D 2007 %L eprints1880 %X In this study, the authors compare two inter-municipal commuting networks (MCN) pertaining to the Italian islands of Sardinia and Sicily, by approaching their characterization through a weighted network analysis. They develop on the results obtained for the MCN of Sardinia (De Montis et al. 2007) and attempt to use network analysis as a mean of detection of similarities or dissimilarities between the systems at hand. %K Complex networks, Commuters dynamics, Weighted networks, Spatial networks, GIS %A Andrea De Montis %A Alessandro Chessa %A Michele Campagna %A Simone Caschili %A Giancarlo Deplano %C Paris, France
