Abstract
Connectivity seems to be one of the significant features of today’s life. People rely on their technology in almost every aspect of their daily living. They also depend on this technology to be accessible anytime and anywhere. It is true that technology has touched every feature of today’s life. However, it is the networks that allowed this touch to reach almost everyone, regardless of who or where they are. Disasters stand for the oldest challenges that ever faced humanity. Since societies are extremely dependent on the technology, it is imperative to face the challenge in terms of technological communication systems. In this paper, the Accidental Disaster Network Impact Model is used to study the impact of a regional computer network failure triggered by an accidental disaster on the surviving network. The main aim is to study the percentage of change in traffic and lost traffic in node failure scenarios. This research estimates the change in traffic in cases of single node failure and double node failure. Also, it addresses the case of partial node failure in which only part of the communication ability is lost. The research also generates a simplified network map that represents the regional network of Asia Pacific.
