A Monte Carlo model for networks between professionals and society

We propose a network model with a fixed number of nodes and links and with a dynamic which favors links between nodes differing in connectivity. We observe a phase transition and parameter regimes with degree distributions following power laws, P(k)∼k-γ, with γ ranging from 0.2 to 0.5, small-world properties, with a network diameter following D(N)∼logN and relative high clustering, following C(N)∼1/N and C(k)∼k-α, with α close to 3. We compare our results with data from real-world protein interaction networks.
