ABSTRACT

In order to reveal the complex network characteristics and evolution principle of China aviation network, the relationship between the average degree and the average path length of edge vertices of China aviation network in 1988, 1994, 2001, 2008 and 2015 was studied. According to the theory and method of complex network, the network system was constructed with the city where the airport was located as the network node and the airline as the edge of the network. On the basis of the statistical data, the average degree and average path length of edge vertices of China aviation network in 1988, 1994, 2001, 2008 and 2015 were calculated. Through regression analysis, it was found that the average degree had a logarithmic relationship with the average path length of edge vertices and the two parameters of the logarithmic relationship had linear evolutionary trace.

KEYWORDS
