Optimizing random walk search algorithms in P2P networks
In this paper we develop a model for random walk-based search mechanisms in unstructured P2P networks. This model is used to obtain analytical expressions for the performance metr...

Using pair approximations to predict takeover dynamics in spatially structured populations
The topological properties of a network directly impact the flow of information through a system. For example, in natural populations, the network of inter-individual contacts aff...
