Abstract :
An instance of complex networks, student networks (SN), is mainly studied in this paper. Dynamic properties of SN were firstly studied and an improved Logistic Model was put foreword and was optimized by float-point GA. Then, fractal methods were applied to the study of dynamic growth of SN, and fractal algorithm were introduced and applied. A conclusion that the growth of SN has some features of fractal was finally gained and a long-term model for the growth was brought forward.
