Many works have studied the Internet topology, but few have investigated the question of how it evolves over time. This paper focuses on the Internet routing IP-level topology and proposes a first step towards realistic modeling of its…
Researchers have proposed a variety of Internet topology models. However almost all of them focus on generating one graph based on one single static source graph. On the other hand, Internet topology is evolving over time continuously with…
The description of the Internet topology is an important open problem, recently tackled with the introduction of scale-free networks. In this paper we focus on the topological and dynamical properties of real Internet maps in a three years…
The advent of Internet and World Wide Web has led to unprecedent growth of the information available. People usually face the information overload by following a limited number of sources which best fit their interests. It has thus become…
Networks are structures that pervade many natural and man-made phenomena. Recent findings have characterized many networks as not random structures, but as efficent complex formations. Current research has examined complex networks as…
We present here a study of the clustering and cycles present in the graph of Internet at the Autonomous Systems level. Even if the whole structure is changing with time, we present some evidence that the statistical distributions of cycles…
Research on the robustness of the Internet has gained critical importance in the last decades because more and more individuals, societies and firms rely on this global network infrastructure for communication, knowledge transfer, business…
The models of the Internet reported in the literature are mainly aimed at reproducing the scale-free structure, the high clustering coefficient and the small world effects found in the real Internet, while other important properties (e.g.…
The topology of the Internet and its geographic properties received significant attention during the last years, not only because they have a deep impact on the performance experienced by users, but also because of legal, political, and…
We investigate a model of evolving random network, introduced by us previously {[}{\it Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 83}, 5587 (1999){]} . The model is a generalization of the Bak-Sneppen model of biological evolution, with the modification that…
Cybersecurity is the security cornerstone of digital transformation of the power grid and construction of new power systems. The traditional network security situation quantification method only analyzes from the perspective of network…
Graphical models are frequently used to represent topological structures of various complex networks. Current criteria to assess different models of a network mainly rely on how close a model matches the network in terms of topological…
A social network grows over a period of time with the formation of new connections and relations. In recent years we have witnessed a massive growth of online social networks like Facebook, Twitter etc. So it has become a problem of extreme…
We propose a new user-centric imagery of the WWW that foregrounds local usage and its shaping forces, in contrast to existing imageries that prioritize Internet infrastructure. We construct ethnological maps of WWW usage through a network…
In this paper we investigate the evolution of the IPv4 and IPv6 Internet topologies at the autonomous system (AS) level over a long period of time.We provide abundant empirical evidence that there is a phase transition in the growth trend…
This article provides a taxonomy of current and past network modeling efforts. In all these efforts over the last few years we see a trend towards not only describing the network, but connected devices as well. This is especially current…
Understanding social network structure and evolution has important implications for many aspects of network and system design including provisioning, bootstrapping trust and reputation systems via social networks, and defenses against Sybil…
Evolutionary models are used to study the self-organisation of collective action, often incorporating population structure due to its ubiquitous presence and long-known impact on emerging phenomena. We investigate the evolution of…
Information diffusion in online social networks is affected by the underlying network topology, but it also has the power to change it. Online users are constantly creating new links when exposed to new information sources, and in turn…
We introduce a minimal extended evolving model for small-world networks which is controlled by a parameter. In this model the network growth is determined by the attachment of new nodes to already existing nodes that are geographically…
