This document summarizes a presentation on the resilience of transaction-oriented networks. It describes a model of a random transaction network and simulations examining how the network's performance is affected by node capacity, density, and failures from overloading or faulty nodes. The key findings are that the network exhibits four phases depending on traffic load and failures, and that doubling node capacity can nearly quadruple throughput. Additionally, excessive traffic and node failures have an almost linear and equivalent impact on resilience.
