… cascading failures. Topological models are built for the two typical structures of dispatching
data networks in … of the dispatching data networks is better to resist the cascading failures. …

… of cascading failures in the communication network, we refer to a node’s failure as a state
transition, and model the cascading failure propagation in the whole network as a sequence of …

This research conducts a systematic study of human-initiated cascading failures in critical
inter-dependent societal infrastructures. The focus is on three closely coupled systems: (i) …

… communication network in order to receive control signals. We demonstrate that these
dependencies can lead to cascading failures, … of such interdependent networks. We propose a two-…

… physical systems that involve multiple interactions between a power grid and a communication
network. Such a mutual dependence increases the risk of large-scale cascading failures. …

… In order to capture these key characteristics of historical cascading failures, our model (…
In all three of our models in which the communications network is used (our “Smart Grid” …

… Furthermore, we focus our study on the MV domain which is increasingly becoming more
dynamic and thus, more prone to such cascading failures. While the communication network …

… We present models for cascading failures in single networks and interdependent networks
and … in which the failure of the control units of the communication network does not lead to the …
