Many social infrastructures fail in an unexpected way, and thus it is important to make a system resilient such that it can recover from various damages in a dynamic and flexible way. There seems to be a consensus among many researchers in this field that redundancy, diversity, and adaptability are the three key characteristics of resilient systems that can absorb shocks and recover from damages gracefully. However, it is still not clear how we quantitatively combine those strategies to build a
