Link Vulnerability in Networks
Zeynep Ni̇han Berberler, Esin Yiğit · International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science · 2018
Link residual closeness is reported as a new graph vulnerability measure, a graph-based approach to network vulnerability analysis, and more sensitive than some other existing vulnerability measures. Residual closeness is of great theoretical and practical significance to network design and optimization. In this paper, how some of the graph types perform when they suffer a link failure is discussed. Vulnerability of graphs to the failure of individual links is computed via link residual closeness which provides a much fuller characterization of the network.
