Many natural and human systems can be represented as networks, including the Internet, social interactions, food webs, and transportation and communication flows. One thing that these types of networks have in common, is that they can each be represented as a series of vertices (or nodes) and edges (or links). This blog entry presents a nice description of networks, highlighting the differences between various network types (directed, undirected, weighted, unweighted, etc.).
