Survivability of series–parallel systems with multilevel protection

Optimal protection of complex networks exposed to a terrorist hazard: A multi-objective evolutionary approach

“…For instance, in references [9] to [12] the authors aim at minimizing a utility function that amounts to the expected damage. In this work, ANPA and TTRAD are considered within a multipleobjective optimization problem.…”

“…The key issue for the optimization of the protective measures is the definition of the impact of an attack to the network, which is the quantity to be minimized. For instance, in references [9] to [12] the authors aim at minimizing a utility function that amounts to the expected damage. In this work, ANPA and TTRAD are considered within a multipleobjective optimization problem.…”

“…Hence, the protection of critical infrastructures is a top priority for current societies. Correspondingly, many efforts have been devoted in recent years towards a new understanding of ways to analyse the safety and security of critical infrastructures and of how to protect them against random failures, natural disasters, and/or intentional attacks [7][8][9][10][11][12].…”
