摘要:
The invention provides a computer implemented tool for analyzing the brittleness of a system with respect to at least one system performance measure. The tool comprises a statistical analyzer configured to receive at least one operating parameter input, o, and to provide at least one performance function output, f. The performance function output f provides an indication of system performance as a function of system operating parameter input o. A brittleness analyzer is coupled to the performance function output and is configured to provide a brittleness output based upon the performance function output f.

An information system includes a bulletin board-type interface that enables virtual messages propagating through the system, to interface with one another. The virtual messages are created by a virtual system embedded within the information system. The virtual messages may model any of various network services and predict traffic based on the network services. The virtual messages may represent an attack model on the network. Models of system resources are also created and the models interact by posting and/or retrieving information from the bulletin board-type interface. The interface provides for a negotiation process regarding the availability of future system resources and the impact upon the modeled network service.

A command sequence for an autonomous UAV mission is optimized by simulating the performance of a mission in a model environment. Using a genetic algorithm, neural net, or other suitable technique this command sequence is then optimized, to improve the outcome of the mission. A factor in selecting an optimal command sequence will be its compressability. A set of one or more optimal command sequences is compiled. Each optimal command sequence is encoded into an algorithmic active packet of minimum size for uploaded to the UAV, which then executes the mission. To track the UAV in its performance of the mission without compromising its location, the active packets are executed in the simulated environment. The simulated environment is continually updated with the most current available information. The simulation results are an approximation of the current state of the UAV.
摘要:
A system automatically and dynamically forms clusters from a plurality of boolean network nodes of a mobile wireless network. A primary node of the plurality of boolean network nodes detects adjacent nodes of the plurality of boolean network nodes. The primary node randomly selects a boolean state for the primary node. The primary node transmits the boolean state to the adjacent nodes. The primary node receives boolean states from the adjacent nodes. The primary node determines a next boolean state based on inputs from the adjacent nodes. The primary node records the next boolean state incrementally over time. The primary node determines whether the recorded next boolean states defines a cycle comprising all ones or all zeroes. The primary node is a clusterhead node if the recorded next boolean states comprise all ones or all zeroes.
