在过去的几十年里，在光学、化学、生物学和生态学等领域，人们对耦合单元的大型网络中集体动力学的出现进行了研究。最近，复杂网络提供了一个具有挑战性的框架，研究动态单元的同步，基于整体拓扑结构的复杂性和耦合单元的局部动力学性质之间的相互作用。在这项工作中，我们回顾了建设性的作用，这样复杂的布线网络的耦合动力系统的同步。我们审查的主要技术，已提出评估的倾向，一个给定的网络系统的同步（同步性）。我们还将描述的主要应用，特别是在视图中选择的最佳拓扑结构的耦合配置，提供增强的同步功能。
During the last decades the emergence of collective dynamics in large networks of coupled units has been investigated in fields such as optics, chemistry, biology and ecology. Recently, complex networks have provided a challenging framework for the study of synchronization of dynamical units, based on the interplay between complexity in the overall topology and local dynamical properties of the coupled units. In this work, we review the constructive role played by such complex wirings for the synchronization of networks of coupled dynamical systems. We review the main techniques that have been proposed for assessing the propensity for synchronization (synchronizability) of a given networked system. We will also describe the main applications, especially in the view of selecting the optimal topology in the coupling configuration that provides enhancement of the synchronization features.
