Interdependency and Vulnerability of Multipartite Networks under Target Node Attacks

Algorithm 1

Framework of the method for analyzing the robustness of an L-partite network under target node attacks.

Input: an L-partite network G; index
Output: the robustness curves
(1)	Implement for all ; //memory allocation
(2)	; //see Section 4.4.
(3)	For do
(a)	; //remove the former nodes from .
(b)	; //see Sections 4.2 and 4.3.
(c)	;
(d)	Implement for all ; //in the final LCC, calculate the fraction of nodes remained in each node set.
(4)	End
(5)	Go to step 2 and repeat the above processes for T times. Calculate the average values of .
(6)	Plot with respect to p.
