Relevance of Massively Distributed Explorations of the Internet Topology: Qualitative Results

Jean-Loup Guillaume, Matthieu Latapy and Damien Magoni Computer Networks 50, pages 3197-3224, 2006. Extended abstract published in the proceedings of the 24-th IEEE international conference Infocom’05, 2005, Miami, USA Internet maps are generally constructed using the traceroute tool from a few sources to many destinations. It appeared recently that this exploration process gives a partial …

Random generation of large connected simple graphs with prescribed degree distribution

Fabien Viger and Matthieu Latapy Extended abstract published in LNCS, proceedings of the 11-th international conference on Computing and Combinatorics COCOON’05, 2005, Kunming, Yunnan, Chine We address here the problem of generating random graphs uniformly from the set of simple connected graphs having a prescribed degree sequence. Our goal is to provide an algorithm suitable …

Statistical analysis of a P2P query graph based on degrees and their time-evolution

Jean-Loup Guillaume, Matthieu Latapy and Stevens Le-Blond LNCS, proceedings of the 6-th International Workshop on Distributed Computing IWDC’04, 2004, Kolkata, India Despite their crucial impact on the performances of P2P systems, very few is known on peers behaviors in such networks. We propose here a study of these behaviors in a running environment using a …

Bipartite Structure of all Complex Networks

Jean-Loup Guillaume and Matthieu Latapy Information Processing Letters (IPL) 90:5, pages 215-221, 2004 The analysis and modelling of various complex networks has received much attention in the last few years. Some such networks display a natural bipartite structure: two kinds of nodes coexist with links only between nodes of different kinds. This bipartite structure has …
