Many systems are today modelled as complex networks, since this representation has been proven being an effective approach for understanding and controlling many real-world phenomena. A significant area of interest and research is that of networks robustness, which aims to explore to what extent a network keeps working when failures occur in its structure and how disruptions can be avoided. In this paper, we introduce the idea of exploiting long-range links to improve the robustness of Scale-Free (SF) networks. Several experiments are carried out by attacking the networks before and after the addition of links between the farthest nodes, and the results show that this approach effectively improves the SF network correct functionalities better than other commonly used strategies.

通过远程链接提高网络稳定性

如今，许多系统都被建模为复杂的网络，因为这种表示已被证明是理解和控制许多现实世界现象的有效方法。网络健壮性是人们关注和研究的重要领域，其目的是探索当网络结构发生故障时网络可以在多大程度上保持正常工作以及如何避免中断。在本文中，我们介绍了利用远程链接来提高无标度（SF）网络的鲁棒性的想法。通过在最远节点之间添加链接之前和之后对网络进行攻击，进行了一些实验，结果表明，与其他常用策略相比，该方法有效地改善了SF网络的正确功能。
