Efficient immunization strategies for computer networks and populations.
We present an effective immunization strategy for computer networks and populations with broad and, in particular, scale-free degree distributions. The proposed strategy, acquaintance immunization, calls for the immunization of random acquaintances of random nodes (individuals). The strategy requires no knowledge of the node degrees or any other global knowledge, as do targeted immunization str...
متن کاملAn Efficient Immunization Strategy for Community Networks
An efficient algorithm that can properly identify the targets to immunize or quarantine for preventing an epidemic in a population without knowing the global structural information is of obvious importance. Typically, a population is characterized by its community structure and the heterogeneity in the weak ties among nodes bridging over communities. We propose and study an effective algorithm ...
متن کاملEfficient immunization strategies to prevent financial contagion
Many immunization strategies have been proposed to prevent infectious viruses from spreading through a network. In this work, we study efficient immunization strategies to prevent a default contagion that might occur in a financial network. An essential difference from the previous studies on immunization strategy is that we take into account the possibility of serious side effects. Uniform imm...
متن کاملImmunization strategies for epidemic processes in time-varying contact networks
Spreading processes represent a very efficient tool to investigate the structural properties of networks and the relative importance of their constituents, and have been widely used to this aim in static networks. Here we consider simple disease spreading processes on empirical time-varying networks of contacts between individuals, and compare the effect of several immunization strategies on th...
متن کاملEfficient Immunization Algorithm for Peer-to-Peer Networks
In this paper, we present a detail study about the immunization of viruses in Peer-to-Peer networks exhibiting power-law degree distributions. By comparing two different immunization strategies (randomized and degree-based), we conclude that it is efficient to immunize the highly connected nodes in order to eradicate viruses from the network. Furthermore, we propose an efficient updating algori...
