Abstract :
With arrival of the internet era and extensive application of computers, people are now using more and more networks, in which various relevant network models have been developed. However, these models mainly focus on one of specific ideal coupling configurations, and have limited flexibility for addressing the networks on daily life phenomena. Therefore, in this paper, a communication model based on modular complex network is proposed, which can reflect diversity of the daily life for the networks. The associated module and the equivalent communication topology are also provided. Moreover the feasibility of the equivalent communication model is verified mathematically. Finally, the proposed model is applied to study a infectious disease case, and the obtained results further validate our theory of this new network model.
