bbv(1) -- Grow a weighted scale-free random graph
======
## SYNOPSIS
`bbv` <N> <m> <n0> <w0> <delta>
## DESCRIPTION
`bbv` grows an undirected weighted random scale-free graph with <N>
nodes using the model proposed by Barrat, Barthelemy, and
Vespignani. The initial network is a clique of <n0> nodes, and each
new node creates <m> new edges, each with weight <w0>. The parameter
<delta> sets the amount of weight to be redistributed in the
neighbourhood of newly-connected nodes.
## PARAMETERS
* <N>:
Number of nodes of the final graph.
* <m>:
Number of edges created by each new node.
* <n0>:
Number of nodes in the initial (seed) graph.
* <w0>:
Weight of each new edge (must be >=0)
* <delta>:
The amount of weight to be redistributed among the neighbours of
newly-connected nodes.
## OUTPUT
`bbv` prints on STDOUT the edge list of the final graph, which
consists of three columns:
node1 node2 weight
where `weight` is the weight of the corresponding edge. Please note
that each edge is printed only once.
## EXAMPLES
The following command:
$ bbv 10000 3 5 1.0 0.5 > bbv_10000_3_5_1.0_0.5.txt
creates a weighted scale-free graph with <N=10000> nodes, where each
new node creates <m=3> new edges and the initial seed network is a
ring of <n0=5> nodes. Each new edge has an initial weight equal to
<w0>. The weights of existing edges are rearranged after the addition
of a new edge, by rearranging an amount of weight equal to <delta>.
The final graph is saved in the file `bbv_10000_3_5_1.0_0.5.txt`
(notice the STDOUT redirection operator `>`).
