Abstract
In this paper, a new rumor spreading model, Ignorant-SpreaderStifler-Controller (ISRC) model, is developed. The model extends the classical Ignorant-Spreader-Stifler (ISR) rumor spreading model by adding a new kind of people that spread a new rumor against previous rumor to control and reduce the maximum rumor influence. We derive a dynamical system that describe the dynamics of the ISRC model. Beside the dynamical analysis of the model, we consider asymptotical stability in equilibrium point. Numerical simulations are also conducted to support our analytic results.
