We study numerically the knowledge innovation and diffusion process on four representative network models, such as regular networks, small-world networks, random networks and scale-free networks. The average knowledge stock level as a function of time is measured and the corresponding growth...

Prevailing models of the evolutionary prisoner’s game on networks always assume that agents are pursuing their own profit maximization. But the results from experimental games show that many agents have other-regarding preference. In this paper, we study the emergence of cooperation from the...

In this paper, we construct (d,r) networks from sequences of different irrational numbers. In detail, segment an irrational number sequence of length M into groups of d digits which represent the nodes while two consecutive groups overlap by r digits (r=0,1,…,d−1), and the undirected edges...

This paper regards the outer synchronization between two delay-coupled complex dynamical networks with nonidentical topological structures and a noise perturbation. Considering one network as the drive network and the other one as the response network, the drive–response system achieves...

A new multi-objective simulated annealing (MOSA) algorithm is proposed for optimizing network topology. In this paper, the MOSA algorithm is used to perform two-objective simultaneous optimization. The two objectives examined in this paper are the critical packet generation rate, and average...

Network model recently becomes a popular tool for studying complex systems. Detecting meaningful communities in complex networks, as an important task in network modeling and analysis, has attracted great interests in various research areas. This paper proposes a genetic algorithm with a special...

Many networks of interest in the science, including social networks, computer networks and the World Wide Web, are found to be divided naturally into communities or groups. The problem of detecting communities is one of the outstanding issues in the study of network systems. Based on the...

Many real systems possess accelerating statistics where the total number of edges grows faster than the network size. In this paper, we propose a simple weighted network model with accelerating growth. We derive analytical expressions for the evolutions and distributions for strength, degree,...
