For their article on small world networks, Watts and Strogatz cited 27 sources. Interestingly enough, a lot of these sources were in the biology field. Many sources, in turn, cited this article (8,749). The top 3 authors were G.R. Chen, B.H. Wang, and T. Zhou. And the kinds of journals that tend to cite this article the most are undoubtedly physics. Journals that cite it a moderate amount include computer science, mathematics, and engineering. Journals that cite it the least include pathology, paleontology, and electrochemistry. The pattern of citations over time has steadily increased until this year, 2014. The amount of citations this year extrapolated over the whole 12 month period, though, is still going to be less than 2013. This may suggest new data has been found to supplant or supercede information in this article.
They were cited 8,749 times, mostly in physics and other sciences and they cited others 27 times, the articles that they cited can be generally characterized as Science: physics, psychology, mathematics and many more.
The top 3 authors that cite Watts and Strogatz are G.R Chen, B.H Wang and T. Zhou. Articles that are about science, physics and mathematics tend to cite Watts and Strogatz article. The journals that cite Watts and Strogatz the most is Physics Multidisciplinary, moderate citing in the Multidisciplinary Sciences area, and least citing in Biomedical, Nutrition and many more related to that field. It seems that the articles that cite Watts and Strogatz the most are the ones about physics and although other since related topics cite them there is a big difference in the amount of reference to their article.

Watts and Strogatz cited 27 sources. The disciplines and subjects that are cited seem to revolve around biology in terms of infectious diseases, genetic algorithms, nerves and cellular events. There were also a couple of sources that deals with psychology and spatial relations. This article is cited 8749 times and the top 3 authors who cite this article are Chen GR, Wang BH and Zhou T. The subjects that tend to cite this article are multidisciplinary physics, mathematical physics and physics of fluid plasmas. Over time it seems as though the article is cited more, in 2007 the percentage of citations was 8.343% (of the total citations) and in 2013 it was 13.925%, thus showing an increase in the times the article is cited over time.
The article was cited 8749 times, most frequently by physicists, and scientists. Therefore, the journals that published this article are all scientifically affiliated.
The article is titled “Collective Dynamics of Small-world networks”. In terms of physics, perhaps this article is explaining the physical connectedness we feel from being in a small network together. I suppose through relativity and energy (the few physics terms I know).
In this article, Watts and Strogatz cited 27 references. These citations are in reference to science and math related sources, such as nature, biology, ecology, and mathematical biosciences.
In addition, Watts and Strogatz’s article was cited 8,749 times. The top three authors who cite Watts and Strogatz’s article were Chen Gr, Wang Bh, and Zhou T. Citations regarding this article increased gradually over time.
No, not the pork bacon. Kevin Bacon.
On Tuesday, we spoke about chapter 9 and within that chapter, there was a mention about six degrees of separation. In high school, my teacher made us read a play on six degrees of separation and showed us a website that linked Kevin Bacon to numerous actors/actresses within 6 people.
I’ve put in actors/actresses from the US, Hong Kong, UK, Russia and even Hungary and Turkey…and they all show a link! If you want to try it out, here is the website. It’s fun to try to find someone that he isn’t linked to.
Hi all,
On Thursday April 3rd there will be a fundraising event in the Multi-Purpose Room VC Building from 6 – 10pm. This fundraiser is in aid of a multi-class sustainable project which aims to help people re-think their relationship with food, food access and also bringing healthy organic produce to Baruch College and Corona, Queens. This project aims to fulfill its goal through the form of a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) i.e. a farmers market setup for members of the CSA.
I would like to invite everyone to come out (pass the word) and support a really great cause because education is the key to making a difference in how we think about what we put into our bodies. Besides there’s going to be really great food and a DJ….. what more can you ask for 🙂

Nowadays, many students carry more than one digital device such as laptop and PC tablet and they prefer to use this device in class. As I am a college student, I am always thinking that does digital device help students to improve their college education. Even though there are many positive effect of using digital device in class, but I don’t recommend students to use digital devices in classroom. One of the biggest reasons is that it is easy to be disrupted by digital device. Most students who try to use laptop or tablet in class are doing something else as well such as shopping and facebook. As time goes by, they will focus on what they have been up to instead of listing lecture. Moreover, other students will also be disrupted by watching what he or she is doing through digital device. Thus, I believe that it is better not to use digital device in class.
Here is the link for pros and cons of digital devices.
Twitter just announced that it will be offering two new additions to their popular social network platform (to read the full article, click here). The first addition allows users to tag up to 10 friends in their photos. Prior to this change, the only way to incorporate your friends into a related photo is through mentioning your friends’ name in the limited 144 characters message. The second addition is to allow users to upload to four photos at a time to be merged into one big collage. Prior to this, each photo must be uploaded one by one.
These additions are definitely not unique or new to the social networking environment. For example, Facebook has incorporated friend tagging into their status updates for quite a while. However, on the contrary, Facebook recently adapted Twitter’s use of hashtags.
With all of these sharing (or stealing/copying) of social networking techniques, do you think that it is just a matter of time before there will be little to no differentiation among social networks? Perhaps there will only be one large integrated Social Network? Do you think this is feasible? If not, what is your opinion on the trend of the social networks environment?
While browsing the social media site Facebook today i had come across an interesting site that had been shared by a few of my friends. The UNICEF Tap Project, which has been striving to increase access to clean water for children worldwide since 2007, have created a mobile website app that can tell when your phone is not being used. For every 10 minutes you leave your phone alone, Armani will provide a day of clean drinking water to a child in need. Personally this feels like killing two birds with ones\ stone. You now are more motivated to not check your phone every 10 minutes because the longer you go without touching your phone the more you give to charity. I honestly cannot think of a better reason why i shouldn’t touch my phone. The app works by detecting movement using your phones internal sensor. So far i have donated $5 by just not using my phone. I urge all my fellow classmates to help spread the word about this amazing app because for every minute your NOT on your phone, you are consequently saving a life.
