Study of Evolution Model of China Education and Research Network

الملخص EN

By searching the hyperlinks with domain name “.edu.cn” which constitutes the China Education and Research Network, we build a complex directed network containing 366,422 web pages containing 540,755 URLs.

These URLs constitute a complex directed network through self-organization.

By analyzing the topology of China Education and Research Network, we found that it is different from the common Internet in several aspects.

Most of the vertices have incoming links, a few vertices have outgoing links, and very few vertices have both incoming and outgoing links.

The vertex distribution has a power-law tail.

A large proportion of newly added edges always connect with those pages selected from one subnetwork that they belong to, instead of connecting with the pages selected from the whole network.

According to these features, we presented the evolution model of this complex directed network.

The results indicate that this model reflects some main characteristics of China Education and Research Network.
