Classes. Races subject: QC Physics description: 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. publisher: Inderscience date: 2010 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: De Montis, Andrea and Caschili, Simone and Chessa, Alessandro and Campagna, Michele Urban management in the face of complexity: commuting networks in insular Italy.
