As the aviation industry is an important indicator of economic growth, it is necessary and very meaningful to investigate the evolution of the airport network. He also found the network structure is dynamic, with changes in the importance of airports and airlines, and the traffic on BAN has doubled during a period in which the topology of BAN has shrunk [44] . Inspired by their interesting work, we investigate the evolution of Chinese Airport Network (CAN) from the year 1950 to 2008 (1991-2008 for detailed traffic information and 2002-2009 for detailed topology information). In summary, we investigate the evolution of Chinese airport network (CAN), including the topology, the traffic and the interplay between them. ./cache/cord-256707-kllv27bl.txt ./txt/cord-256707-kllv27bl.txt
