Model for cascading failures in complex networks
TL;DR: It is shown that the breakdown of a single node is sufficient to collapse the efficiency of the entire system if the node is among the ones with largest load.

Modeling cascading failures in the North American power grid
TL;DR: This model of the North American power grid using its actual topology and plausible assumptions about the load and overload of transmission substations indicates that the loss of a single substation can result in up to up to 25% loss of transmission efficiency by triggering an overload cascade in the network.

Peak vs. Sustained Performance in Highly Concurrent Vector Machines
TL;DR: These announcements have followed several other scientific computer announcements, each of which has emphasized the peak computational rate of the machine, neglecting the more important sustained performance estimates.
