Application of percolation algorithms for assessing the reliability of heterogeneous networks of military use

Abstract

In recent years, especially with the onset of aggression by the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the requirements for the reliability of existing heterogeneous networks as the technological basis of the command and control system of formations, unions and military control bodies of all levels of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have significantly increased. Indeed, the failure of only one element of the existing control system (due to deliberate (cyber-attacks) or unintentional interference) can lead to the loss of the control system as a whole. Therefore, the creation of a reliable heterogeneous network (GM) to ensure the functioning of the control system is an important and important task. As a result, the authors propose, in order to assess the reliability of the GM, to improve the existing method, in which information transfer within the network is viewed as passing data packets from one GM segment to another through the providers infrastructure (Internet), using percolations algorithms (algorithms build on percolation theory models). In 1956, in the article "Percolation processes I. Crystals and mazes" (flow process. Crystals and labyrinths) authors S.R. BROADBENT and J.M. HAMMERSLEY proposed to simulate the flow of matter in a porous material using the Monte Carlo method Further research in this area showed that the use of this approach is used in various fields of science, such as physics (statistical), materials science, economics, chemistry, geology, sociology, medicine, to describe the occurrence of related structures in random environments (clusters) of random environments. (clusters), consisting of individual elements.
