Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Empirical Results The algorithms were implemented using the CPLEX C++ API with Concert technology as a 32 threaded application on Intel XEON 2.29 GHz processors... Table 1 provides results when hardened lines are not damaged or are damaged at rates of 1 100 or 1 10 of the unhardened rate.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: Scenario Based Decomposition; Algorithm 2: Greedy; Algorithm 3: Variable Neighborhood Search
Open Source Code No The paper states 'Full details of the problems are available at http://public.lanl.gov/rbent/', but this refers to problem details, not the source code for the methodology described in the paper. There is no explicit statement about code release.
Open Datasets Yes Our problems are based on a modified version of the IEEE 34 bus systems (Kersting 1991)
Dataset Splits No The paper uses 'scenarios' for evaluation and analysis of resilience, but it does not specify traditional training, validation, or test dataset splits (e.g., percentages or sample counts) for model training or evaluation reproducibility.
Hardware Specification Yes The algorithms were implemented using the CPLEX C++ API with Concert technology as a 32 threaded application on Intel XEON 2.29 GHz processors.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions 'CPLEX C++ API with Concert technology' but does not provide a specific version number for CPLEX or any other key software dependencies.
Experiment Setup Yes In this paper, MAXRESTARTS = 10, MAXITERATIONS = 4, MAXTIME = 48 CPU hours, and d = 2.Here, we generally require λ = 0.98.Here, γ = 0.5.Intensities are modeled as damage rates per mile on power poles and are transformed into the probability a power line segment of one mile length is damaged (a pole has failed).
