Research outlook

Abstract

The research indicates the potential of complex networks research to study a wide array of problems. For this reason, further research activities should be engaged despite of the previously depicted limitations. From a very general perspective, a lot of research effort is required in order to unify the existing fragmented parts into a coherent body of research. But in addition, further research is required in order to approach research opportunities in financial research and complex networks research. The most important research opportunities are depicted in the following chapter. The application of complex networks research to investment theoretical research problems in software markets reveals its interdisciplinars contributions to financial research. The following three research opportunities are most relevant to advance the existing boundaries of financial research.
