Based on the empirical analysis of the dependency network in 18 Java projects, we develop a novel model of network … final network, follow power-law behaviors: P(k₀) ∝ k₀^1−α, and P(k) ∝ k^1−γ …, respectively. For the total number of links as a function of the network size, we find empirically K(N) ∝ N^β, where β is …
