SUMMARY:Synchronization in Complex Modular Networks - Albert Diaz-Guilera 
 (Universitat de Barcelona)
DTSTART:20071107T160000Z

DESCRIPTION:Synchronization processes in populations of locally interactin
 g elements are in the focus of intense research in physical\, biological\,
  chemical\, technological and social systems. The many efforts devoted to 
 understand synchronization phenomena in natural systems take now advantage
  of the recent theory of complex networks. I report the advances in compre
 hension obtained\, and new features observed\, when synchronizable oscilla
 ting elements are subjected to interact in a complex network topology\, ma
 inly populations of coupled Kuramoto oscillators. I also include a review 
 of applications of synchronization in complex networks to several discipli
 nes: biological systems and neuroscience\, engineering and computer scienc
 e\, and economy and social sciences.\n
