Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book contains an exhaustive overview of various examples of realistic adaptive networks, some theoretical arguments on their behaviour and some methodological tools that can be applied in various situations. It contains 14 contributions by influential authors in the field … . the book contributors have a different disciplinary background gives to this book an interesting inter–disciplinary flavour that modellers in any field will appreciate.” (Floriana Gargiulo, Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation, Vol. 13 (1), 2010)
“The volume articulates this perspective and provides a collection of groundbreaking research papers that illustrate its potential. … The chapters are independent contributions, each with its own bibliography … . However, the way the chapters were selected and organized leads to an overall flow that is easy to follow, and renders the volume an important and accessible reference for researchers.” (H. Van Dyke Parunak, ACM Computing Reviews, January, 2010)
“The volume would … serve as a good introduction to, and overview of, research on adaptive networks for someone entering the field. … contains fourteen invited contributions, plus an introductory chapter by the editors. … Overall, Adaptive Networks is a solid collection that brings together diverse facets of an exciting and growing field with many opportunities for further research.” (Nicholas Geard, Artificial Life, Vol. 16 (4), 2010)
