Blackouts and Cascading Failures
Scientific American, 2009The editorial presents the author's thoughts regarding the process of cascading failure behind the 2008-2009 global economic crisis. The need to apply lessons learned from the cascading nature of the economic crisis to other systemic threats, such as those presented by the crises of water shortage, energy shortage, and poverty, is also discussed.

ON THE OUTCOME OF A CASCADING FAILURE MODEL
Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 2006This article is concerned with a loading-dependent model of cascading failure proposed recently by Dobson, Carreras, and Newman [6]. The central problem is to determine the distribution of the total number of initial components that will have finally failed. A new approach based on a closed connection with epidemic modeling is developed.

Cascading failures of wireless sensor networks
Proceedings of the 11th IEEE International Conference on Networking, Sensing and Control, 2014Despite the fact that the research related to the invulnerability of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has made gratifying progress, most of it focuses on their topology tolerance but fails to consider the impact of traffic load and energy consumption on their invulnerability.

Simulating Critical Infrastructure Cascading Failure
2014 UKSim-AMSS 16th International Conference on Computer Modelling and Simulation, 2014The reliance on critical infrastructures, which are heavily interconnected, is one of society's greatest weaknesses. An individual failure has the potential to have a huge impact on society and affect other infrastructures. Predicting the effects of a cascading failure is a challenge.

The lung water cascade in heart failure
Echocardiography, 2017In heart failure patients, we hypothesize the occurrence of the “lung water cascade,” with the various markers hierarchically ranked in a well‐defined time sequence: (1) early, proximal hemodynamic event with increase in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure; (2) intermediate, direct imaging sign of pulmonary edema (easily detectable at bedside by lung ...

Cascading failures in coupled map lattices
Physical Review E, 2004Large cascades triggered by initial shocks are common in complex networks. Coupled map lattices have been widely used over the past decades as dynamical models of complex systems. Here we investigate cascading failures in coupled map lattices with different topologies.

Network resilience estimation to cascading failures
2015 International Conference on Information and Communication Technology Convergence (ICTC), 2015Failures of a small fraction of nodes can lead to breakdown of entire network due to overload or congestion. To understand this crucial feature in networks, we propose a load-dependent cascading failure model according to sandpile principle in this paper.

Modeling Cascading Failures in Congested Internet
2008 The 9th International Conference for Young Computer Scientists, 2008Internet is a complex network with the characteristic of self-organized criticality. The cascading dynamics of Internet are presented and two reasons are pointed out, which may cause cascading failures. Different from betweenness centrality, a congestion function to represent the extent of congestion is proposed.
