The response of scale-free networks with community structure to external stimuli is studied. By disturbing some nodes … with different strategies, it is shown that the robustness of this kind of network can be enhanced due to the existence of … communities in the networks. Some of the response patterns are found to coincide with topological communities. We show that such …
