Complex Networks
In the last decade we have seen the emergence of a new inter-disciplinary field focusing on the understanding of networks which are dynamic, large, open, and have a structure sometimes called random-biased. The field of Complex Networks is helping us bett

Preface
The International Workshop on Complex Networks series – CompleNet (www.complenet.org) was initially proposed in 2008 with the first workshop taking place in 2009. The initiative was the result of efforts from researchers from the BioComplex Laboratory in the Department of Computer Sciences at Florida Institute of Technology, USA, and the Dipartimento di Ingegneria Informatica e delle Telecomunicazioni, Universita‘ di Catania, Italia. CompleNet aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners working on areas related to complex networks. In the past two decades we have been witne
