We consider the problem of designing an overlay network and routing mechanism that permits finding resources efficiently in a peer-to-peer system. We argue that many existing approaches to this problem can be modeled as the construction of…

Robustness is pivotal for comprehending, designing, optimizing, and rehabilitating networks, with simulation attacks being the prevailing evaluation method. Simulation attacks are often time-consuming or even impractical, however, a more…

We systematically study and compare damage spreading for random Boolean and threshold networks under small external perturbations (damage), a problem which is relevant to many biological networks. We identify a new characteristic…

Edge computing is highly demanded to achieve their full potentials Internet of Things (IoT), since various IoT systems have been generating big data facilitating modern latency-sensitive applications. As a basic problem, network dismantling…

We investigate robustness of correlated networks against propagating attacks modeled by a susceptible-infected-removed model. By Monte-Carlo simulations, we numerically determine the first critical infection rate, above which a global…

Data sharding, a technique for partitioning and distributing data among multiple servers or nodes, offers enhancements in the scalability, performance, and fault tolerance of extensive distributed systems. Nonetheless, this strategy…

Targeted immunization or attacks of large-scale networks has attracted significant attention by the scientific community. However, in real-world scenarios, knowledge and observations of the network may be limited thereby precluding a full…

Traditional MCMC algorithms are computationally intensive and do not scale well to large data. In particular, the Metropolis-Hastings (MH) algorithm requires passing over the entire dataset to evaluate the likelihood ratio in each…

Given a network, the critical node detection problem finds a subset of nodes whose removal disrupts the network connectivity. Since many real-world systems are naturally modeled as graphs, assessing the vulnerability of the network is…

In varying degree distributions, we investigate the optimally robust networks against targeted attacks to nodes with higher degrees. In considering that a network tends to have more robustness with a smaller variance of degree…

Network dismantling is to identify a minimal set of nodes whose removal breaks the network into small components of subextensive size. Because finding the optimal set of nodes is an NP-hard problem, several heuristic algorithms have been…

In this article, we proposed a susceptible-infected model with identical infectivity, in which, at every time step, each node can only contact a constant number of neighbors. We implemented this model on scale-free networks, and found that…

Scale-free networks with small power law exponent are known to be robust, meaning that their qualitative topological structure cannot be altered by random removal of even a large proportion of nodes. By contrast, it has been argued in the…

Routing in wireless meshes must detour around holes. Extant routing protocols often underperform in minimally connected networks where holes are larger and more frequent. Minimal density networks are common in practice due to deployment…

We study the problem of finding the smallest set of nodes in a network whose removal results in an empty $k$-core; where the $k$-core is the sub-network obtained after the iterative removal of all nodes of degree smaller than $k$. This…

We address the problem of allocating limited resources in a network under persistent yet statistically unknown adversarial attacks. Each node in the network may be degraded, but not fully disabled, depending on its available defensive…

In this paper, we present algorithms for designing networks that are robust to node failures with minimal or limited number of links. We present algorithms for both the static network setting and the dynamic network setting; setting where…

In classic network security games, the defender distributes defending resources to the nodes of the network, and the attacker attacks a node, with the objective to maximize the damage caused. Existing models assume that the attack at node u…

Hierarchical clustering (HC) algorithms are generally limited to small data instances due to their runtime costs. Here we mitigate this shortcoming and explore fast HC algorithms based on random projections for single (SLC) and average…

Randomness supports many critical functions in the field of machine learning (ML) including optimisation, data selection, privacy, and security. ML systems outsource the task of generating or harvesting randomness to the compiler, the cloud…
