Abstract :
A large number of experiments show many software systems have the statistical characteristics of complex networks. Complex networks theory provides a global view of observation and analysis of software systems. The basic concepts of complex networks were introduced briefly. The current research results on the combination of complex networks theory and software engineering were summed. And nine future research directions in the area of the combination of complex networks theory and software engineering were presented.
