Book Part Citation - Scopus: 2On Their Way Home A Network Analysis of Medieval Caravanserai Distribution in the Syrian Region, According to an 1D Approach(Archaeopress, 2016) Palombini, Augusto; Tavernari, CinziaThe common theory on caravanserais states that they were built at one-day's march distance from each other. Such a pattern may fit some situations, but it does not seem to be present in Syria during the Ayyubid (1174-1260 CE) and Mamluk periods (1260-1517 CE), when most of the region's caravanserais were founded. Caravanserais built during these periods do not seem to follow a precise pattern of distribution along the communication axis of Syria and, as a result, the logic that underlines their distribution remains unclear. The authors face the problem through a GIS-based, network analysis approach that takes into account the building period of each structure and the one-dimensional criterion of distance to its nearest neighbour, also considered in relation to the closeness to urban centres. The results of the analysis are then compared to the historical Syrian caravan networks. The outcomes show interesting aspects both in terms of understanding the route organization, and of predictive methods for focusing on areas where structures not yet located may be expected. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 30Dynamic Integration and Network Structure of the EMU Sovereign Bond Markets(Springer, 2018-04-04) Sensoy, Ahmet; Duc Khuong Nguyen; Rostom, Ahmed; Hacihasanoglu, Erk; Nguyen, Duc KhuongIn this paper, we propose a novel concept of correlation-based stable networks to empirically investigate the dynamic integration and network structure of the European Monetary Union (EMU) sovereign bond markets. The obtained results uncover a high degree of market integration between sample markets over the period preceding the recent financial crises, while segmentation is found afterwards. The stable network analysis shows, for its part, the existence of two different network structures before and after the onset of the European debt crisis, where the in-crisis network structure is characterized by two groups of countries with respect to their fiscal performance. In particular, Belgium is the unique vertex connecting the two groups, making it the channel for shock transmission in the event of worsening debt crisis in the EMU.
