A network diagram is a diagrammatical visualisation of a network. A network in general is an interconnected group or system, or a fabric or structure of fibrous elements attached to each other at regular intervals, or formally: a graph.
A network diagram is a special kind of cluster diagram, which even more general represents any cluster or small group or bunch of something, structured or not. Both the flow diagram and the tree diagram can be seen as a specific type of network diagram.
A network diagram depicts a set of objects, that constitute a network. Unlike a system a network is generally not bounded by a clear system border, or determined by a set of subsystems.
