Abstract:  Social network has a characteristic of small world, with high cluster coefficient and short average distance. In order to do some research on epidemic spread in small world network and points’ voluntary suppressions under a global warning, a model based on CA(cellular automaton) is proposed. Combining with normal cloud model, we give the model some adaptive properties. Points in the model can break links and connect to others. Under a global warning, we let points abide by danger awareness function. Using AHP model, they are inclined to avoid danger points. Simulation results show that this model is good at simulating epidemic spread and it gives us an explanation of why global warning can postpone the epidemic spread on a network.

Key words: small world, CA, danger awareness, adaptive properties, global warning
