Connectivity Graph

Caption: In the classic model of random networks, after a certain number of connections are made, overall connectivity begins to rise in a steep curve (ER). A new model that delays this transition results in overall connectivity occurring almost instantaneously at a critical moment, shown in this graph by the upward turn of the flat red line (PR).
