Generalised Modelling: Turning Graphs into Models
Turning Graphs into Models --
Generalized modelling of network dynamics
Over the last decade advances in experimental techniques have revealed huge amonts of information on important
real world networks such as metabolic or gene regulatory
nets. However, the extensive data that has been obtained
paints essentially a static picture of these systems
while their functioning is strongly related to dynamics.
It is therefore a major challenge to turn the available
topological information into dynamical models. Generalized
modelling is a new approach that enables us to study certain
dynamical properties of complex heterogeneous networks
very efficiently. The major advantage of this approach is
that it requires only topological information; it is not
necessary to restrict the processes in the network to
specific rate laws, which are often not known. I will
illustrate this approach by examples (and results) from
several disciplines, ranging from chinese dynasties via
ecological food webs to photosynthesis.
