Liveblog: de RUG staakt tegen dreigende megabezuiniging
De Rijksuniversiteit Groningen staakt dinsdag 18 maart vanwege de dreigende bezuinigingen in het hoger onderwijs. In dit liveblog volgen we de staking, uniek in de Groningse universitaire geschiedenis...
Vandaag staak ik - het is de beurt aan de @unigroningen.bsky.social en de @hanzehogeschool.bsky.social in de estafettestaking van het hoger onderwijs. De hele dag doet @ukrant.bsky.social verslag.

Yes, I see what you're getting at, guess I misunderstood the question a bit. "Ordered pairs of vertices" is the math / graph-theory language for the unit of analysis, as jimi writes. I tend to think of multiple such attributes as a vector-valued tie variable.

In the book I'm writing with Tom Snijders, we call them "tie variables", those nร(n-1) directed entities x_{ij} we usually analyse.
