The Effective Healing Strategy against Localized Attacks on Interdependent Spatially Embedded Networks

Figure 2

A schematic illustration of HPMD strategy: (a) a failed node which is represented by red solid circle at the end of the arrow is removed and affects its functioning neighbors () via connectivity links (blue). (b) In random healing, two active neighbors of the failed node are randomly chosen to establish a new link. (c) According to the HPMD strategy, by counting the number of connectivity links of active nodes and with of the failed node , and their distance that is equal to 2 in the original network, after calculating the healing priority index , then a new connectivity link (red) is preferentially established between two remaining neighbors and to heal the network.
