Evaluating Mission-Oriented Network Reliability via Simulation Test
Mo Chen, Yuejin Tan, Hongzhong Deng · 2012
This paper proposed a simulated test method for evaluating mission-oriented network reliability.We first defined the mission-network model and entity-capability model.Then, to test the mission-oriented network reliability, we employed a three-layer network, including mission-layer, sampling-layer and physical-layer.The nodes were sampled from physical-layer based on the entity capability model while link were mapped from mission-layer based on the mission network model.To investigate the effect of this testing method, we chose different entity-capability models to evaluate mission-oriented network reliability of a combat network.The simulation result showed that entity-capabilities played an important role in missionoriented network reliability and the simulation test method could be used as an effective means for mission-oriented network reliability evaluating.
