, powerlaw phenomenon has been widely observed in various real networks,ranging from social networks to manmade technological networks. It seems that powerlaw is ubiquitous. However, it is undesirable for people to draw the conclusion that a new network shows powerlaw distribution just by plotting the node degree distribution in loglog scale without considering the evolution mechanisms of the network itself. For example, the network evolution mechanisms have not been considered in the characterization of the recently popularized P2P network. After exploring the evolution mechanisms of the P2P network, we show both analytically and by simulation that P2P network in fact follows exponential degree distribution rather than powerlaw distribution.Keywords: Powerlaw, P2P network, topology 第一作者簡介: 張國強, 1980年出生, 男, 江蘇常州人, 博士研究生, 主要研究方向為網(wǎng)絡(luò)管理, 互連網(wǎng)拓撲發(fā)現(xiàn)和拓撲建摸, 主要發(fā)表的論文和專利有:[1] 張國強, 張國清, 李仰耀. “物理網(wǎng)絡(luò)拓撲發(fā)現(xiàn)算法的研究和系統(tǒng)實現(xiàn)” 小型微型計算機系統(tǒng) 已錄用[2] 張國強, 張國清. “Internet網(wǎng)絡(luò)的關(guān)聯(lián)性研究” 軟件學報 已錄用[3] Shi Zhou, Guoqiang Zhang and Guoqing Zhang. “The Chinese Internet ASlevel Topology” IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, submitted.[4] 張國清,張國強,鄭海 “一種物理網(wǎng)絡(luò)拓撲發(fā)現(xiàn)系統(tǒng)及其方法” [5] 張國強,張國清 “物理網(wǎng)絡(luò)拓撲發(fā)現(xiàn)中“啞元”設(shè)備的推測方法” [6] 張國強,張國清. 專利“基于全局Internet拓撲知識的P2P應用構(gòu)建方法” 已提交
