Information Horizons in Networks
We investigate and quantify the interplay between topology and ability to
send specific signals in complex networks. We find that in a majority of
investigated real-world networks the ability to communicate is favored by the
network topology on small distances, but disfavored at larger distances. We
further discuss how the ability to locate specific nodes can be improved if
information associated to the overall traffic in the network is available.Comment: Submitted top PR
