==Pseudocode==

The LASCNN algorithm establishes a {{Var|k}}-hop neighbor list and a duplicate free pair wise connection list based on {{Var|k}}-hop information. If the neighbors stay connected then the node is non-critical.<ref>G.

==Implementation==

[[File:Critical_Nodes_Application.png|thumb|300px|Critical Nodes Application - An implementation for the LASCNN algorithm using PWCT]]

The Critical Nodes application is a Free Open-Source implementation for the LASCNN algorithm. The application was developed in 2013 using [[PWCT|Programming Without Coding Technology]] software.<ref>Fayed, Al-Qurishi, Alamri, Aldariseh (2017) PWCT: visual language for IoT and cloud computing applications and systems, ACM</ref>
