Abstract
Community structures are widely observed in networks, and their variations lead to different network characteristics. A reasonable community structure can enhance traffic capacity, thereby mitigating network congestion. Therefore, examining the relationship between community structures and network traffic performance holds significant practical importance. The influence of different community structures on network traffic capacity is explored in this paper by adjusting parameters such as the number, strength, and inter-community connection probability of communities. Simulation results show that fewer communities, weaker community strength, and higher intercommunity connectivity can enhance traffic capacity and alleviate congestion.
期刊介绍：
Physics Letters A offers an exciting publication outlet for novel and frontier physics. It encourages the submission of new research on: condensed matter physics, theoretical physics, nonlinear science, statistical physics, mathematical and computational physics, general and cross-disciplinary physics (including foundations), atomic, molecular and cluster physics, plasma and fluid physics, optical physics, biological physics and nanoscience. No articles on High Energy and Nuclear Physics are published in Physics Letters A. The journal''s high standard and wide dissemination ensures a broad readership amongst the physics community. Rapid publication times and flexible length restrictions give Physics Letters A the edge over other journals in the field.
