We introduce and use k-shell decomposition to investigate the topology of the Internet at the AS level. Our analysis separates the Internet into three sub-components: (a) a nucleus which is a small (~100 nodes) very well connected globally…
We consider the $k$-core decomposition of network models and Internet graphs at the autonomous system (AS) level. The $k$-core analysis allows to characterize networks beyond the degree distribution and uncover structural properties and…
The k-shell decomposition plays an important role in unveiling the structural properties of a network, i.e., it is widely adopted to find the densest part of a network across a broad range of scientific fields, including Internet,…
As the Internet AS-level topology grows over time, some of its structural properties remain unchanged. Such time- invariant properties are generally interesting, because they tend to reflect some fundamental processes or constraints behind…
The evolution of the Internet during the last years, has lead to a dramatic increase of the size of its graph at the Autonomous System (AS) level. Soon - if not already - its size will make the latter impractical for use from the research…
The organisation of a network in a maximal set of nodes having at least $k$ neighbours within the set, known as $k$-core decomposition, has been used for studying various phenomena. It has been shown that nodes in the innermost $k$-shells…
In recent years numerous attempts to understand the human brain were undertaken from a network point of view. A network framework takes into account the relationships between the different parts of the system and enables to examine how…
The $k$-core decomposition is a widely studied summary statistic that describes a graph's global connectivity structure. In this paper, we move beyond using $k$-core decomposition as a tool to summarize a graph and propose using $k$-core…
We study how the graph structure of the Internet at the Autonomous Systems (AS) level evolved during a decade. For each year of the period 2008-2017 we consider a snapshot of the AS graph and examine how many features related to structure,…
Heterogeneous graphs generally refers to graphs with different types of nodes and edges. A common approach for extracting useful information from heterogeneous graphs is to use meta-graphs, which can be seen as a special kind of directed…
We introduce a new network statistic that measures diverse structural properties at the micro-, meso-, and macroscopic scales, while still being easy to compute and easy to interpret at a glance. Our statistic, the onion spectrum, is based…
A temporal network is a dynamic graph where every edge is assigned an integer time label that indicates at which discrete time step the edge is available. We consider the problem of hierarchically decomposing the network and introduce an…
Recent study shows that the accuracy of the k-shell method in determining node coreness in a spreading process is largely impacted due to the existence of core-like group, which has a large k-shell index but a low spreading efficiency.…
Decomposing a graph into a hierarchical structure via $k$-core analysis is a standard operation in any modern graph-mining toolkit. $k$-core decomposition is a simple and efficient method that allows to analyze a graph beyond its mere…
K-core decomposition is a commonly used metric to analyze graph structure or study the relative importance of nodes in complex graphs. Recent years have seen rapid growth in the scale of the graph, especially in industrial settings. For…
The structure of the Internet at the Autonomous System (AS) level has been studied by both the Physics and Computer Science communities. We extend this work to include features of the core and the periphery, taking a radial perspective on…
Among the novel metrics used to study the relative importance of nodes in complex networks, k-core decomposition has found a number of applications in areas as diverse as sociology, proteinomics, graph visualization, and distributed system…
Massive networks have shown that the determination of dense subgraphs, where vertices interact a lot, is necessary in order to visualize groups of common interest, and therefore be able to decompose a big graph into smaller structures. Many…
Our current understanding about the AS level topology of the Internet is based on measurements and inductive-type models which set up rules describing the behavior (node and edge dynamics) of the individual ASes and generalize the…
We present a generalized method for calculating the k-shell structure of weighted networks. The method takes into account both the weight and the degree of a network, in such a way that in the absence of weights we resume the shell…
