A simulated multilevel network following the "linked design" as proposed by Lazega et al (2008).
linked_simlinked_sim_matrix
linked_sim_type
linked_sim
is a graph object with 150 vertices and 600 edges.
There is one vertex attribute "type" defining to which level each vertex
belongs. FALSE
means lower level and TRUE
means higher level.
linked_sim_matrix is a matrix object that contains the adjacency matrix for the simulated network.
linked_sim_type is a logical vector containing each vertex type.
