<p>A method for defining a domain within a network of nodes mutually interconnected across respective network links is disclosed. The method comprises for each of a plurality of nodes of the network, determining within a network neighbourhood comprising a plurality of tiers Tn of nodes surrounding the node, each tier Tn comprising nodes within a given number of links n of the node, a sum of nodes Sumnodes(Tn) in each tier. For each of the plurality of nodes, a connectivity score CS is provided, the score being a function of the sum of the products of the sum of nodes Sumnodes(Tn) and the tier number n for each tier. Based on the connectivity scores for the plurality of nodes, the extent of at least one network domain within the network, is determined the or each domain comprising a plurality of domain nodes associated with a centroid node having an optimal connectivity score within the plurality of domain nodes.</p> |
