Fig. 48.

Time evolution of synchronization error $〈\delta 〉$ for $\tau =0.2$ (empty circles), 0.3 (filled circles), 0.4 (empty squares), 0.5 (filled squares), 0.6 (empty diamonds), 0.7 (filled diamonds), 0.9 (empty up triangles), 1.1 (filled up triangles), and 1.5 (empty down triangles). In all cases, the results are ensemble averages over 5 different random initial conditions for a dynamical network of $N=200$ identical chaotic Rössler oscillators. Inset: Synchronization time $T_{sync}$vs. switching time $\tau$ (open circles refer to different initial conditions, solid line is the ensemble average).
