Efficiency and reliability of epidemic data dissemination in complex networks
Yamir Moreno, Maziar Nekovee, Alessandro Vespignani
Abstract
We study the dynamics of epidemic spreading processes aimed at spontaneous dissemination of information updates in populations with complex connectivity patterns. The influence of the topological structure of the network in these processes is studied by analyzing the behavior of several global parameters such as reliability, efficiency and load. Large scale numerical simulations of update spreading processes show that while networks with homogeneous connectivity patterns permit a higher reliability, scale-free topologies allow for a better efficiency.
