multiplexed networks  

Definition

  • A multiplexed network, defined as a network with multiple and overlapping content relations, emerges from the dyadic multiplexity of its network ties. A network tie specifies a relationship between two actors and is the conduit or channel through which different types of content may flow between them—such as friendship or finances—and be maintained, transferred, or exchanged.
