This book, first published in 2004, describes the application of
statistical physics and complex systems theory to the study of the
evolution and structure of the Internet. Using a statistical
physics approach the Internet is viewed as a growing system that
evolves in time through the addition and removal of nodes and
links. This perspective permits us to outline the dynamical theory
required for a description of the macroscopic evolution of the
Internet. The presence of such a theoretical framework appears to
be a revolutionary and promising path towards our understanding of
the Internet and the various processes taking place on this
network, including, for example, the spread of computer viruses or
resilience to random or intentional damages. This book will be of
interest to graduate students and researchers in statistical
physics, computer science and mathematics studying in this subject.
