Information theory point of view on stochastic networks

Abstract

Stochastic networks represent very important subject of research because they have been found in almost all branches of modern science, including also sociology and economy. We provide a information theory point of view, mostly based on its nonextensive version, on their most characteristic properties illustrating it with some examples.
