[igraph] test network topology

[simone gabbriellini]

Hello List,

I have a methodological question for you: suppose you have an empiric  
network and you want to see which theoretical model (random graph or  
small world) is more close to it, what igraph functions will you  
combine?
I know how to simulate in igraph random graphs and small world graphs  
with similar characteristic than the empirical network (number of  
nodes, links, mean degree), but what could be the right "test" at the  
end?

thank you,
Simone
