Random graph generation is an important tool for studying large complex networks. Despite abundance of random graph models, constructing models with application-driven constraints is poorly understood. In order to advance state-of-the-art in this area, we focus on random graphs without short...

This paper studies the decision made by a family to invest in student migration. We propose an empirical structural decision model which reflects the importance of both the return to the investment and the budgetary constraint in the choice of the family. We circumvent the problem of endogeneity...

This article describes how the average path length (APL) of a network is an important metric that provides insights on the interconnectivity in a network and how much time and effort would be required for search and navigation on that network. However, the estimation of APL is time-consuming as...

In recent years, online social networks (OSN) have emerged as a platform of sharing variety of information about people, and their interests, activities, events and news from real worlds. Due to the large scale and access limitations (e.g., privacy policies) of online social network services...

A complex network provides a framework for modeling many real-world phenomena in the form of a network. In general, a complex network is considered as a graph of real world phenomena such as biological networks, ecological networks, technological networks, information networks and particularly...
