Resumé	Small-world and scale-free network analysis tests whether a real-world network exhibits two landmark topological signatures identified in 1998-1999: the Watts-Strogatz small-world property (high local clustering combined with short average path lengths) and the Barabási-Albert scale-free property (a degree distribution that follows a power law, meaning a small number of hubs connect to a disproportionately large share of other nodes). Together these frameworks transformed network science by showing that many social, biological, and technological networks share a common structural grammar.	Temporal network analysis, formalised by Holme and Saramäki in their landmark 2012 Physics Reports survey, is the study of networks in which edges appear and disappear over time. Rather than collapsing all contacts into a single static graph, the approach preserves the precise timing of interactions — whether as contact sequences, time-stamped event lists, or windowed snapshots — and uses that timing to track how influence, disease, or information can actually propagate through the system.
