Abstract.The new algorithmic technique which allow higher efficiency in the precise calculation of the reliability of an undirected graph with absolutely reliable nodes and unreliable edges is considered in this paper. As graph's reliability we mean its probabilistic connectivity. The proposed technique is based on the reduction of the dimension of a calculated graph by considering its node's cuts. Comprehensive computer simulation results show the advantages of the proposed algorithms, that the calculation time decreases significantly in comparison with existent methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
