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

Figure 1

A schematic diagram of the ISENs. The ISENs are constructed by coupling two diluted square lattices A and B with the same size, where each node has two kinds of links: connectivity link (blue) and dependency link (yellow). Each node is connected with its neighbors via connectivity links, and each node located at () in network A is coupled with one and only one node located at () in network B via a dependency link, with the constraint and . The dependency link means that for an interdependent node pair; if one node fails, the other fails too.
