What is Hierarchical Systems

Handbook of Research on Cyber Crime and Information Privacy
It is a special type of systems where elements (objects, names, values, categories, etc.) are represented as being “above”, “below”, or “at the same level as” one another. A hierarchy can link elements either directly or indirectly, and either vertically or diagonally.

Abstract
Information infrastructures for corporations and governments (information and automated systems, telecommunication networks, and other elements) have dramatically changed in the last decades due to the broad usage of IoT, AI, mobile internet, and other advanced technologies. Protection against cyberattacks requires new solutions that correspond to an increased level of complexity for these infrastructures. Important tasks for these new tools are forecasting cyberattacks, developing and applying preventive protective measures to reduce the risk of information security incidents. For the prediction of cyberattacks and the development of preventive protective measures, the authors propose to use one of the hybrid (or augmented) intelligence (HI) frameworks – evaluation and monitoring of complex processes. The mission of the chapter is to discuss the main issues, challenges, and opportunities related to HI applications for protection against cyberattacks to information infrastructures.

Failure Detectors of Strong S and Perfect P Classes for Time Synchronous Hierarchical Distributed Systems
In hierarchical systems, processes/nodes are arranged in hierarchy or reverse tree like structure. The system is structured using different levels of authority and chain of commands in which higher levels control lower levels of the hierarchy. If a link breaks, the higher authorities do not have control on the levels below the failure.
