            Abstract : 
This paper is concerned with the global synchronization problem for a class of complex dynamic networks. We first give a sufficient condition for the synchronization of complex networks with any connection. Then in the case that the network connection is directed and has a spanning tree, the global synchronization problem is further investigated. These results are easy to be used for the synchronization of various complex dynamical networks.
