These two papers both try to describe the human or social behavior by modelling, though the ways to modelling are different. The first paper tries to apply an unseen network to a visible result.

Such graph is considered as the most likelihood underlying graph. The second paper, uses maths, computer simulation and real data to prove that, in the assumption of people following the pattern of doing tasks with highest priority first, will lead to the conclusion that most of the tasks will be rapidly executed and a few will have long waiting times, which is called the heavy-tail process.

Questions
1. How much time did you spend reading the (new, non-wikified) paper you summarized?
2. How much time did you spend reading the old wikified paper?
3. How much time did you spend reading the summary of the old paper?
4. How much time did you spend reading background materiel?
5. Was there a study plan for the old paper? if so, did you read any of the items suggested by the study plan? and how much time did you spend with reading them?
