abstract = "Does the assignment order of a fixed collection of slightly
distinct subsystems into given communication channels influence
the overall ensemble behavior? We discuss this question in the
context of complex networks of nonidentical interacting
oscillators. Three types of connection configurations are
considered: Similar, Dissimilar, and Neutral patterns. These
different groups correspond, respectively, to oscillators alike,
distinct, and indifferent relative to their neighbors. To
construct such scenarios we define a vertex-weighted graph
measure, the total dissonance, which comprises the sum of the
dissonances between all neighbor oscillators in the network. Our
numerical simulations show that the more homogeneous a network,
the higher tend to be both the coupling strength required for
phase locking and the associated final phase configuration spread
over the circle. On the other hand, the initial spread of partial
synchronization occurs faster for Similar patterns in comparison
to Dissimilar ones, while neutral patterns are an intermediate
situation between both extremes.",
