Abstract: In this paper, inspired by the idea that different nodes should play different roles in network synchronization, we bring forward a coupling method where the coupling strength of each node depends on its neighbors' degrees. Compared with the uniform coupled method and the recently proposed Motter-Zhou-Kurths method, the synchronizability of scale-free networks can be remarkably enhanced by using the present coupling method, and the highest network synchronizability is achieved at β=1 which is similar to a method introduced in [AIP Conf. Proc. 776, 201 (2005)]. Copyright EDP Sciences/Società Italiana di Fisica/Springer-Verlag 2006
