the network connectivity in optimization models, we can impose constraints on
the connectivity indices of the nodes [8].
The CARDINALITY CONSTRAINED CNDP can be formulated in a similar man-
ner to the the CNDP above. Recall that in this problem, we are given an integer
L
V
such that the connectivity index of the remaining nodes in the vertex deleted sub-
graph G ( V
Z
, and we are interested in determining a minimum cardinality subset A
A ) does not exceed L .
Using the same definition of the variables as in the previous subsection, we can
formulate the CC - CNDP as the following integer linear programming problem.

where L is the maximum allowable connectivity index for any node in the vertex
deleted subgraph G ( V
A ). Notice that the objective is to minimize the num-
ber of nodes deleted. Constraints (7.11) follow exactly as in the CNDP model.
Also, Constraints (7.12)-(7.14) are equivalent to the constraint u ij + u jk +
