In this model we give an overview to network robustness looking at what happens when we remove links and node, both strategically and randomly. Transcription excerpt: Robustness & resilience are often thought of in terms of a systems capacity to maintain functionality in the face of external perturbations. We see some extraordinary example of this, ecological networks that persist despite extreme environmental changes, Communication networks like the internet can often deal with malfunction, errors and attacks, without these local events lead to catastrophic global failures, but we also see the opposite where some small failure in say a financial syste
