The effect of Internet separation degree time sensitivity on transmission

Abstract

Separation degree is a standard measure for complex network research. Whatever its scale or its increase makes the Internet take on a complex network character. Because of the development of complex network theory and the continuous evolution of the Internet, it is a key problem that uses complex network theory to research the Internet nowadays. In this paper, the Internet separation degree is put forward. The time series stochastic process model of the Internet separation degree is established. According to actual data, the Internet separation degree time sensitivity model (ISDTSM) is established and the effect of time sensitivity of the Internet separation degree to the Internet IP level transmission is computed. Finally the Internet separation and IP transmission during 2008 Beijing Olympic Games were forecasted by using the model.
