Abstract
A method for selecting and configuring network supernodes includes (i) in a first set period T1, each node, other than a control node in a network, regularly sending information on interactions between the node and other nodes to the control node; and (ii) in a second set period T2, the control node dividing the nodes into a plurality of node clusters according to the received information on interactions among the nodes and selecting supernodes from each node cluster, where each node belonging uniquely to a node cluster.
