Token Ring naturally uses the ring architecture. A mesh topology is usually found in a wide area network (WAN) to provide redundant paths between locations. See Ethernet and Token Ring.

For example, in a shared Ethernet network that uses hubs rather than switches, the logical topology appears as if every node is connected to a common bus that runs from node to node. However ...

1). We then compared the topology of the three drug-target networks in terms of the fraction of nodes belonging to the largest connected component (nLCC) in the corresponding drug network ...
