Multilayer networks describe well many real interconnected communication andtransportation systems, ranging from computer networks to multimodal mobilityinfrastructures. Here, we introduce a model in which the nodes have a limitedcapacity of storing and processing the agents moving over a multilayer network,and their congestions trigger temporary faults which, in turn, dynamicallyaffect the routing of agents seeking for uncongested paths. The study of thenetwork performance under different layer velocities and node maximumcapacities, reveals the existence of delicate trade-offs between the number ofserved agents and their time to travel to destination. We provide analyticalestimates of the optimal buffer size at which the travel time is minimum and ofits dependence on the velocity and number of links at the different layers.Phenomena reminiscent of the Slower Is Faster (SIF) effect and of the Braess'paradox are observed in our dynamical multilayer set-up.
