Abstract
The present work is inspired by the aftermarket companies of the automotive industry. The goal is to investigate how companies react to market change, by understanding the effect of a perturbation (such as a business cessation) on the rest of the companies that are interconnected through peer-to-peer relationships. An agent-based model has been developed that simulates a multilayer network involving different types of companies: suppliers, aftermarket companies; retailers and consumers. The effect of the cessation is measured by the resilience of the multilayer network after suffering the perturbation. The multilayer network is inspired in a business model of the automobile industry’s aftermarket and each type of company has some defined characteristics. The agent-based model produces the network dynamics due to the changes in its configuration throughout time. No learning mechanism is introduced in this work. We demonstrate that the number of links, the volume of sales and the total profit of a node in the network has an impact on its survival throughout time. © 2025 The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Abstract
Network human operators' decision-making during grid outages requires significant attention and the ability to perceive real-time feedback from multiple information sources to minimize the number of control actions required to restore service, while maintaining the system and people safety. Data-driven event and alarm management have the potential to reduce human operator cognitive burden. However, the high complexity of events, the data semantics, and the large variety of equipment and technologies are key barriers for the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to raw SCADA data. In this context, this paper proposes a methodology to convert a large volume of alarm events into data mining terminology, creating the conditions for the application of modern AI techniques to alarm data. Moreover, this work also proposes two novel data-driven applications based on SCADA data: (i) identification of anomalous behaviors regarding the performance of the protection relays of primary substations, during circuit breaker tripping alarms in High Voltage (HV) and Medium Voltage (MV) lines; (ii) unsupervised learning to cluster similar events in HV line panels, classify new event logs based on the obtained clusters and membership grade with a control parameter that helps to identify rare events. Important aspects associated with data handling and pre-processing are also covered. The results for real data from a Distribution System Operator (DSO) showed: (i) that the proposed method can detect unexpected relay pickup events, e.g., one substation with nearly 41% of the circuit breaker alarms had an 'atypical' event in their context (revealed an overlooked problem on the electrification of a protection relay); (ii) capability to automatically detect and group issues into specific clusters, e.g., SF6 low-pressure alarms and blocks with abnormal profiles caused by event time-delay problems.
