The summary of different DOD metrics.

No.NameConceptOriginal

1Degree of disconnectivity
(DOD)
The DOD value can be explained as measuring the average numbers of the broken nodes in any O-D pair of the network.[7]
2Longest damaged path
(LDP-DOD)
The LDP-DOD used to measure the damage degree of the network finds the most damaged O-D pair among all the O-D pairs of the network.[7]
3Minimal recovery node
(MRN-DOD)
The MRN-DOD discovers the minimal numbers of broken nodes that are needed to repair and reconnect all the O-D pairs of the network.[7]
4Partial DOD
(P-DOD)
Since the important degree of the different network areas is usually unequal, the network defender could assign different DOD requirements to different areas of the network, that is, the P-DOD.[8]
5Weight DOD
(W-DOD)
Since the significance degree of each O-D pair can be diversified, the network defender can assign different weights to each O-D pair, that is, the W-DOD.[8]
