Understanding how information navigates through nodes of a complex network has become an increasingly pressing problem across scientific disciplines. Several approaches have been proposed on the basis shortest paths or diffusive navigation. However, no existing tackled challenges efficient communication in networks without full knowledge their global topology under external noise. Here, we deve...

The paper provides a agent-based model, which describes distribution of informative messages, containing links to informational resources in the Internet. The results of modeling have been confirmed by studying a real network of Twitter microblogs. The paper describes stages of building a corporate system of monitoring network informational resources, the content of which is determined by links...

this paper assumes the cell formation problem as a distributed decision network. it proposes an approach based on application and extension of information theory concepts, in order to analyze informational complexity in an agent- based system, due to interdependence between agents. based on this approach, new quantitative concepts and definitions are proposed in order to measure the amount of t...
