Scale-free network model, the evolution of social communication networks

Abstract

Information is spread quickly in today's tech-connected communication network and we want to know more about the communication networks' relationships. In this paper, an improved scale-free network model of social communication is introduced to simulate the evolution of social communication networks. In this model, we regard the subjective factors of participants and development of social network as the main causes of network evolution. The two kind of participants (active participants and common participants) divided by the desire to communicate with others, meanwhile the desire to communicate changes with the development of economic and education are taken into consideration. Finally, we get a picture of the evolution of social communication networks from 1870 to 2010. The algorithm can provide guidance for the study of social communication networks.
