For 10 points, name this type of social network often described by the phrase "six degrees of separation."
The main probabilistic algorithm to generate these constructs builds a ring structure and then randomly assigns a connection between any two points on the ring. The Watts-Strogatz model is used to generate these items, which are used to model the neurology of C. Elegans. Due to their properties, they appropriately model situations in which triadic closure and homophily exist. They are characterized by a high degree of clustering and have a relatively short average (*) path length. An experiment that had people in the Midwest give packages to those they knew personally gave the first evidence for the existence of them and was conducted by Stanley Milgram.
