Andreas Wagner writes in Robustness and Evolvability in Living Systems:
-
"Robustness" means how durable the ecosystem is and how well it adapts to external events, particularly those events which have a negative impact.
-
To that end, the DTLA "Compliance and Robustness Agreement" (presented as "Annex C" to the DTLA agreement) has a number of requirements aimed at ensuring that every DTLA-approved device is armoured against user modification.

Robustness of the Longstaff-Schwartz LSM Method of Pricing American Derivatives by Andrzej Kozlowski uses the Longstaff-Schwartz least squares Monte Carlo method of computing the value of an American put option, approximated by a Bermudan option with 50 exercise times.

Still, extreme events are just as likely to happen in a low-volatility climate as in a high-volatility one, as Taleb points out in a postscript called, "On Robustness and Fragility."

However, increased mutational robustness caused by gene duplications pales in comparison to drift and selection as a cause for the fixation of gene duplicates, especially because the advantage of robustness is weak in many populations. page 268, Robustness and Evolvability of Living Systems
