Before revision:  We apply this algorithm to work efficiently with a discrete variant of the hyperbolic random graph model . This model is gaining popularity in the analysis of scale-free networks, which are ubiquitous in many fields, from social network analysis to biology.
After revision:  We apply this algorithm to work efficiently with a discrete variant of the hyperbolic random graph model (HRG) has proven useful in the analysis of scale-free networks, which are ubiquitous in many fields, from social network analysis to biology.
