Interlayer link prediction aims at matching the same entities across different layers of the multiplex network. Existing studies attempt to predict more accurately, efficiently, or generically from the aspects of network structure,…
A well-designed attack in the power system can cause an initial failure and then results in large-scale cascade failure. Several works have discussed power system attack through false data injection, line-maintaining attack, and…
One-sided network communication technologies such as RDMA and NVMe-over-Fabrics are quickly gaining adoption in production software and in datacenters. Although appealing for their low CPU utilization and good performance, they raise new…

Survivable design of cross-layer networks, such as the cloud computing infrastructure, lies in its resource deployment and allocation and mapping of the logical (virtual datacenter/IP) network into the physical infrastructure (cloud…
We consider the problem of single link failure in an elastic optical network, (also known as flex-grid WDM network). The task is to reroute optical connections that go through the broken link using free capacity of other links of the…
Link failures in supply networks can have catastrophic consequences that can lead to a complete collapse of the network. Strategies to prevent failure spreading are thus heavily sought after. Here, we make use of a spanning tree formulation…
Several approaches have been proposed to the problem of provisioning traffic engineering between core network nodes in Internet Service Provider (ISP) networks. Such approaches aim to minimize network delay, increase capacity, and enhance…
We study the incentives that agents have to invest in costly protection against cascading failures in networked systems. Applications include vaccination, computer security and airport security. Agents are connected through a network and…
Software Defined Networking (SDN) brings numbers of advantages along with many challenges. One particular concern is on the control-plane resilience, while the existing protection approaches proposed for SDN networks mainly focus on…

Power-law networks such as the Internet, terrorist cells, species relationships, and cellular metabolic interactions are susceptible to node failures, yet maintaining network connectivity is essential for network functionality.…
Cascading failures are a critical vulnerability of complex information or infrastructure networks. Here we investigate the properties of load-based cascading failures in real and synthetic spatially-embedded network structures, and propose…
In a radio network with single source-destination pair and some relays, a link between any two nodes is considered to have same or zero path loss. However in practice some links may have considerably high path loss than others but still…
In this paper, we study Two-way relaying networks well-known for its throughput merits. In particular, we study the fundamental throughput delay trade-off in two-way relaying networks using opportunistic network coding. We characterize the…
In this work, we propose a control scheme for power grids subject to large perturbations that cause the failure of a node of the grid. Under such circumstances, the system may lose synchrony and, in addition, a cascade of line failures can…
This paper introduces a formulation of the optimal network compression problem for financial systems. This general formulation is presented for different levels of network compression or rerouting allowed from the initial interbank network.…
In this paper, we propose an opportunistic network coding (ONC) scheme in cellular relay networks, which operates depending on whether the relay decodes source messages successfully or not. A fully distributed method is presented to…
Diversity coding is a network restoration technique which offers near-hitless restoration, while other state-of-the art techniques are significantly slower. Furthermore, the extra spare capacity requirement of diversity coding is…
High reliability and availability of communication services is a key requirement that needs to be ensured by service providers. Since the direct line-of-sight (LOS) beam is prone to blockage in indoor optical wireless communication systems,…
