Summary: The study focuses on assessing the reliability and Birnbaum importance measure of complex networks under the shared link risk group (SRLG) failure scenario. The mathematical complexity of these calculations requires approximation techniques, and the proposed solution builds upon the Permutation Monte Carlo paradigm to provide reliable estimates. The algorithm is easy to implement and scalable to meet real-life network sizes.

Summary: A link-failure-oriented survivable virtual sensor network mapping algorithm (F-SVNE) is proposed for virtual wireless sensor networks to address link failure issues. The algorithm utilizes fast routing and a multi-path selection algorithm to create a backup route set, reducing delay in fault recovery caused by path selection. It then adopts a survivable virtual sensor network mapping algorithm based on the routing set. In the mapping stage, the algorithm comprehensively considers efficiency and reliability, selecting the path with the largest survival probability to remap the virtual link affected by link failure. Empirical results show that F-SVNE algorithm effectively reduces failure recovery delay and improves long-term average revenue-cost ratio and average failure recovery rate.

Summary: This paper investigates the cascading dynamics and robustness of complex networks. It is found that the cascading failures of the networks can be divided into intra-group cascading and inter-group cascading processes. Under the synergistic effects of these two processes, there are continuous and discontinuous phase transition phenomena in the cascade dynamics of the network. By controlling the characteristics of interdependency groups, such as the interdependence strength of the nodes or the size distribution of interdependency groups, the system can avoid sudden collapse and improve network robustness.

Summary: The paper proposes an approach for computing the required monitoring trails within a specified expected period, allowing for rapid localization of link failures in large-scale managed networks. Random walk-based analysis estimates the number of monitoring trails needed, and a lightweight method is used to achieve partial localization before obtaining an unambiguous set of monitoring trails for the entire network.
