Every day, we expend energy when we control the networks in our lives. For example, to drive our car, we utilize a network whose components include the car’s accelerator, steering wheel, and brake. Knowing how much that effort «costs» can help determine which components to manipulate–and to what degree–to ensure the smoothest, safest ride as you acclerate from 55 to 90 miles per hour. Physicists now reveal a measuring device that could guide scientists in controlling real-world complex systems.
