Internet outages are inevitable, frequent, opaque, and expensive. To make things worse,
they are poorly understood, while a deep understanding of them is essential for …

Research on the robustness of networks, and in particular the Internet, has gained critical
importance in recent decades because more and more individuals, societies and firms rely …

The study of network robustness is a critical tool in the characterization and sense making of
complex interconnected systems such as infrastructure, communication and social networks …

Network robustness research aims at finding a measure to quantify network robustness.
Once such a measure has been established, we will be able to compare networks, to …

Data centers being an architectural and functional block of cloud computing are integral to
the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector. Cloud computing is rigorously …

Multiple failures can have catastrophic consequences on the normal operation of
telecommunication networks. In this sense, guaranteeing network robustness to avoid users …

Complex networks are ubiquitous in biological, physical and social sciences. Network
robustness research aims at finding a measure to quantify network robustness. A number of …

Robustness in complex networks is an ongoing research effort that seeks to improve the
connectivity of networks against attacks and failures. Among other measures, algebraic …

With increasingly ambitious initiatives such as GENI and FIND that seek to design future
internets, it becomes imperative to define the characteristics of robust topologies, and build …

Currently, there does not seem to exist a commonly agreed definition of the robustness of a
network, nor a framework to modify a network in order to meet some desired level of …
