Abstract :
The paper suggests a model for social network based on a growing network. The model we propose can fit the following two properties: (1) ´scale-free property´ which has power law degree distribution, and (2) ´small-world property´ which has high clustering coefficient. In addition, the model is modified to match the s-metric property. The s-metric property describes the level of high degree nodes connected to other ones, which was proposed in 2005.
