摘要
The clustering coefficient, path length and average vertex degree of two urban train line networks have been calculated. The results are compared with theoretical predictions for appropriate random bipartite graphs. They have also been compared with one another to investigate the effect of architecture on the small-world properties. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
