Abstract EN
With the ubiquity of smart phones, wearable equipment, and wireless sensors, the topologies of networks composed by them change along with time.
The immunization strategies in which network immune nodes are chosen by analyzing the static aggregation network topologies have been challenged.
The studies about interaction propagations between two pathogens show that the interaction can change propagation threshold and the final epidemic size of each other, which provides a new thinking of immunization method.
The eradication or inhibition of the virus can be achieved through the spread of its opposite party.
Here, we put forward an immunization strategy whose implementation does not depend on the analysis of network topology.
The immunization agents are randomly placed on a few of individuals of network and spread out from these individuals on network in a propagation method.
The immunization agents prevent virus infecting their habitat nodes with certain immune success rate.
The analysis and simulation of evolution equation of the model show that immune propagation has a significant impact on the spread threshold and steady-state density of virus on a finite size of BA networks.
Simulations on some real-world networks also suggest that the immunization strategy is feasible and effective.
