perfSONAR Celebrates 20 Years of Simplifying Global Research Collaboration Through Standardized Network Measurement and Testing | GÉANT CONNECT Online
April 2, 2025 — The global research and education (R&E) community is celebrating a major milestone in high-performance networking and collaboration: the 20th anniversary of perfSONAR. Since April 2005, this powerful, open-source toolkit has enabled researchers and network operators to measure and troubleshoot performance across diverse network environments. perfSONAR’s reach has extended to all seven

soc_net_comms: Networks with group metadata
Snapshots of LiveJournal, Friendster, Orkut, and YouTube online social networks, as well as DBLP and Amazon. Node metadata represents a post hoc definition of a 'community' that a node belongs to, derived from topical labels of the node or interest-based 'groups' that a node links to.
This network has 317080 nodes and 1049866 edges.

Homologous nodes in annotated complex networks
Many real-world networks have associated metadata that assigns categorical labels to nodes. Analysis of these annotations can complement the topological analysis of complex networks. Annotated networks have typically been used to evaluate community detection approaches. Here, we introduce an approach that combines the quantitative analysis of annotations and network structure, which groups nodes according to similar distributions of node annotations in their neighbourhoods. Importantly the node…
