Both are initially the Kleinberg model. The _shuffled_ graphs shuffle the initially assigned positions instead of randomizing new ones (as the other simulations do, as Freenet nodes do). Shuffling positions means essentially randomizing the location on the circle, taking the position from the available and evenly spread ones. You can see this difference in the _initial_ plots. The reason to compare these cases is to see whether randomization of position clearly affects the position clustering or not. I found that there often is a relation, but that it happens in other places too. And it happens even if the positions taken before inflow of shortlived nodes are evenly spread out. So there is no easy relation between the two. regards, Vilhelm -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
