Zusammenfassung: | The preferential attachment of the Barabási–Albert model has been playing an important role in modeling practical complex networks. The preferential attachment mechanism describes the role of many real systems, which follows the characteristic “the rich get richer.” However, there are some situations that are ignored by the preferential attachment mechanism, one of which is the existence of the limited resource. Vertices with the largest degree may not obtain new edges by the highest probability due to various factors, e.g., in social relationship networks, vertices with quite a lot of relationships may not connect to new vertices since their energy and resource are limited. Hence, the limit for degree growing is proposed in our new network model. We adjust the attachment rule in light of the population growth curve in biology, which considers both attraction and restriction of the degree. In addition, the unaware–aware–unaware opinion diffusion is studied on our proposed network. The celebrity effect is taken into consideration in the opinion diffusion process. |
