Abstract

An assortative graph growth model was developed in order to describe the behavior of social networks using the case study of the preprint archive at cul.arxiv.org. The model allowed to weight the addition of new nodes and addition of new edges in the microscopial behavior of the network. It was observed that the assortativity can effect the topology of the network significantly. It was also observed that most of the features of the real assortative networks can be reproduced using simulation.
