Abstract. In this paper we introduce Spatio-TEmporal Parametric Stepping (STEPS) - a simple parametric mobility model which can cover a ectrum of human mobility patterns. STEPS mak...
A power law degree distribution is established for a graph evolution model based on the graph class of k-trees. This k-tree-based graph process can be viewed as an idealized model...
Understanding how the structure of a network evolves over time is one of the most interesting and complex topics in the field of social networks. In our attempt to model the dynam...
It has recently been observed that the node degrees of many real-world large-scale networks, such as the Internet and the Web, follow a power law distributions. Since the classical...
We investigate a framework where agents search for satisfying products by using referrals from other agents. Our model of a mechanism for transmitting word-of-mouth and the result...
