1,2004年EPJB(Eur. Phys. J. B 38, 143–145 (2004))列出了网络科学研究的十大问题(见下面列表),然而七年时间过去了,很多问题还是没有能够很好地回答。
2,通过数据如何将特定系统中的问题与一般性的科学问题联系起来?
3,对于社会网络和通讯网络数据,什么才是一般性的根本问题?
4,我们过多地关注用什么样的方法研究网络,然而背后系统所面临的真正问题往往被忽略。
Are there formal ways of classifying the structure of different growing models?
Are there further statistical distributions that can provide insights on the structure and classification of complex networks?
Why are most networks modular?
Are there universal features of network dynamics?
How do the dynamical processes taking place on a network shape the network topology?
What are the evolutionary mechanisms that shape the topology of biological networks?
How to quantify the interaction between networks of different character (networks of networks)?
Is it possible to develop tools to address in a systematic fashion the robustness and vulnerability of large technological and infrastructural networks?
How to characterize small networks?
Why are social networks all assortative, while all biological and technological networks disassortative?
