Our resulting network model is time-evolving. We study the transitions to spreading as function of density, temperature and infection time. In addition, we analyze the epidemic threshold associated to a power-law distribution of infection times.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-02-17T18:22:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "mobile agents", "infection time", "propagation", "two-dimensional system", "epidemic threshold" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
