Determining Factors Behind the PageRank Log-Log Plot

We study the relation between PageRank and other parameters of information networks such as in-degree, out-degree, and the fraction of dangling nodes. We model this relation through a stochastic equation inspired by the original definition of PageRank. Fu

Preface

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Fifth Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web-Graph, WAW 2007, held in San Diego in December 2007. The proceedings consist of 18 revised papers (13 regular papers and 5 short papers) which were reviewed and selected from a large pool of submissions. The papers address a wide variety of topics related to the study of the Web-graph such as random graph models for the Web-graph, PageRank analysis and computation, decentralized search, local partitioning algorithms, and traceroute sampling. The Web-grap
