A random graph generation algorithm for the analysis of social networks

Abstract: Social network analysis (SNA) is a rapidly growing field with numerous applications in industry and government. However, the field still lacks means to generate random social networks with certain desired properties, thus inhibiting their ability to test new SNA algorithms and metrics. Available random graph generation algorithms suffer from tendencies to generate disconnected graphs and sometimes induce undesirable network properties. In this paper, we present an algorithm, the prescribed node degree, connect… Show more

“…While simulation of computer networks has always played an important role in the design and development of networks as well as protocols and algorithms 9 , due to the above-mentioned increase in the scale and order of complexity, there is a need for newer and more effective techniques and paradigms for modeling and simulation of large-scale networks. As a follow-up to the first part of the special issue on Complex Adaptive COmmunicatiOn Networks and environmentS (CACOONS) 10 , this second part presents a selection of four peer-reviewed papers on the use of two complexity-related multidisciplinary modeling and simulation techniques, namely, agent-based modeling (ABM) 11 and complex networks–based modeling (CN) 12 .…”
