The optimal performance of RCS. (a) The fluctuation of S as a function of the fraction of surviving nodes p for different recovery strategies on the ICNs with ER-ER structures. To identify the critical points pc, we calculate the maximum fluctuation σ of the size of giant component S. For instance, the value of pc of RCS approaches 0.428 as the fluctuation of S at that point reaches the maximum value (σ = 0.006). (b) The critical point pc of RCS as a function of parameter value β on the ICNs with ER-ER structures. For example, the optimal parameter βo = 0.3 as pc reaches the minimum value. (c) The critical point pc of RCS as a function of β on the ICNs with ER-SF structures. (d) The critical point pc of RCS as a function of β on the ICNs with SF-SF structures.
