Challenge-Aware Traffic Protection in Wireless Mobile Backhaul Networks

To protect active traffic against link or node failures in multi-hop communications networks, several so-called protection schemes have been introduced in the past. The most established ones are path, segment, node and link protection. However, these schemes are limited as challenges are modelled abstractly whereas challenges in real networks...

Network protection against worms and cascading failures using modularity partitioning

Communication networks are prone to virus and worms spreading and cascading failures. Recently, a number of social networking worms have spread over public Web sites. Another example is error propagation in routing tables, such as in BGP tables. The immunization and error curing applied to these scenarios are not fast enough. There have been...

Effect of tumor resection on the characteristics of functional brain networks

Brain functioning such as cognitive performance depends on the functional interactions between brain areas, namely, the functional brain networks. The functional brain networks of a group of patients with brain tumors are measured before and after tumor resection. In this work, we perform a weighted network analysis to understand the effect of...

A computational approach to multi-level analysis of network resilience

As communication and network technology has advanced into all areas of human life, large-scale failures of such infrastructures can have a drastic impact on its users, the economy and society in general. Significant attention has been paid to study and improve the dependability of such systems, intending to augment their resilience against...
