Abstract

In this work we propose a dynamic network model based on an evolutive rule called compatibility. The presence of common topological properties observed in two real complex networks are well reproduced by the proposed model. These results suggest that the compatibility between nodes is sufficient to generate the complexity observed in real systems even considering that the new added nodes do not have the ability to know global information of the system.
