Abstract
Described is a system for modeling strategic network formation. A network formation model is generated using a concatenation of joint strategies s of a set of N agents, such that s=sss. The N agents include a group of source agents N, a group of aggregator agents N, and a group of consumer agents N, each group of agents having a distinct joint strategy for accessing a set of information. srepresents a joint strategy of the group of source agents, srepresents a joint strategy of the group of aggregator agents, and srepresents a joint strategy of the group of consumer agents. The network formation model is operated according to the joint strategies of the set of N agents. Data relating to the set of N agents of the network formation model is output for the investigation of the formation of information diffusion networks.
