Inspired by empirical studies of networked systems such as the Internet, social networks,
and biological networks, researchers have in recent years developed a variety of techniques
and models to help us understand or predict the behavior of these systems. Here we review
developments in this field, including such concepts as the small-world effect, degree
distributions, clustering, network correlations, random graph models, models of network
growth and preferential attachment, and dynamical processes taking place on networks.
