Abstract

Complex networks are characterized by having a scale-free power-law (PL) degree distribution, a small world phenomenon, a high average clustering coefficient, and the emergence of community structure. Most proposed models did not incorporate all of these statistical properties and neglected incorporating the heterogeneous nature of network nodes. Even proposed heterogeneous complex network models were not generalized for different complex networks. We define a novel aspect of node-heterogeneity which is the node connection standard heterogeneity. We introduce our novel model “settling node adaptive model” SNAM which reflects this new nodes' heterogeneous aspect. SNAM was successful in preserving PL degree distribution, small world phenomenon and high clustering coefficient of complex networks. A modified version of SNAM shows the emergence of community structure. We prove using mathematical analysis that networks generated using SNAM have a PL degree distribution.
