A comparison between the average timesteps taken for saturation of percolation when the intervention is PC based, BC based or hop distance based. the network used was a random network with .

Table 2 summarises several thousand simulation experiments with random networks and the obtained results. In this case, given random nature of the experimental networks, we repeated the experiment for each combination of , , and a centrality measure times. The rows denote the percentage of nodes percolated before intervention was made (parameter ), whereas the columns denote the percentage of nodes which were ‘immunized’ against the spread (parameter ). The first, second, and third sub-rows denote timesteps related to PC based, BC based and hop distance based intervention respectively.
