European Project Definitions
CIPRNet project
The CIPRNet project [1] uses the following definition:
Infrastructures are geographically dependent if a local environmental event can create state changes in all of them. [2]
E.g. if telecommunication and electrical distribution lines use the same bridge, the destruction of the bridge (local environmental event) has effects on the state of both infrastructures.
DIESIS project
The DIESIS project [3] gives the following definition:
Infrastructures are geographically dependent if a local environmental event can create state changes in all of them. [2]
Discussion Topic
The dependency model described in [4] argues that geographical dependency does not exist but is a Common Cause Failure event.
