摘要
This paper is the first step to a study of supply chain distribution networks based on the scale-free theory, and we attempt to analyze the growth of supply chain distribution networks. We construct the supply chain distribution network and divide it into two groups. Through empirical theory and numerical study, it is found that supply chain networks have scale-free characteristics. Additionally, other three features of supply chain distribution network are proposed in this paper. Finally, the exponent of degree distribution is given.
