Connectivityto
Connectivityto is a coined term used in information science and network theory to describe a system’s capacity to establish, maintain, and leverage connections with external nodes, services, or domains across multiple layers and modalities. It emphasizes not only whether a connection exists, but also its quality, compatibility, and resilience under changing conditions.
Because there is no universal definition, connectivityto is applied differently in different contexts. Some researchers treat
Measurement approaches for connectivityto vary. Common components include the number of reachable nodes, average or worst-case
Applications span telecommunications planning, Internet of Things ecosystems, cloud and edge computing, and interoperability studies between
Challenges include a lack of standard definition, diverse measurement methodologies, privacy and security considerations, and rapid
