Deposition, diffusion and aggregation (DDA) on a two-dimensional small-world network has been investigated by computer simulations. This model is characterized by two parameters: the clustering exponent $\alpha$ and long-range connection rate $\phi$. The results show that as $\alpha$ and $\phi$ vary there exists a continuous crossover in the fractal dimension $D_f$ from 1.65 to 2, which corresponds to the crossover from the DDA pattern to dense one. The change of the aggregation pattern results from the long-range connection in the network, which reduces the effect of screening during the aggregation. With primitive analysis, we obtain the expressions of the fractal dimension $D_f$ and the crossover point $\alpha_c$. The maximum value of $\alpha_c$ is 4. These results may be useful to describe the vapor deposition, molecular-beam epitaxy, and similar experiments on defective substrates.
Keywords:small-word network; deposition, diffusion and aggregation(DDA); pattern
