Machine learning has received increasing attention in computer science recent years and many types of methods have been proposed. In networks, little paid to the use ML for fault detection, main reason being lack datasets. This is motivated by reluctance network operators share data about their infrastructure failures. this paper, we attempt fill gap using anomaly detection techniques discern hardware failure events wireless community networks. For purpose 4 unsupervised machine learning,...
Model-driven engineering (MDE) often features quality assurance (QA) techniques to help developers creating software that meets reliability, efficiency, and safety requirements. In this paper, we consider the question of how quality-aware MDE should support data-intensive systems. This is a difficult challenge, since existing models QA largely ignore properties data such as volumes, velocities, or location. Furthermore, requires ability characterize behavior technologies Hadoop/MapReduce,...

The goal of this paper is to create a hybrid system based on Multi-Agent Architecture that will investigate the evolution some neural network methods along with technical and fundamental analysis stock market indexes how information influences behavior in order improve profitability short or medium time period investment. proposed compares results Standard Feed Forward Neural Network, Elman Jordan Recurrent Networks Network evolved Neuro Evolution Augmenting Topologies (NEAT) which gives...
The main goal of this paper is the design a multi-agent system (MAS) that handles unit micromanagement in real time strategy games and able to adapt/learn during game play. To achieve we adopted rtNEAT approach order obtain customized neural network topologies, thus avoiding generation too complex architectures. Also by defining internal external inputs for each agent managed create independent agents are cooperate form teams their mutual benefit at same eliminate unnecessary communication...
This paper makes a short overview of current state the art monitoring tools for cloud and big data frameworks. In order to effectively create, test deploy new algorithms or frameworks one needs suitable solutions. Hence we aim on creating critical some solutions existing market. Also present relevant metrics used applications, focused mainly deployment scenarios
Deploying and running applications in multi-cloud environments is a challenging task for number of reasons:different configuration parameters are needed differentcloud environments, application's artefacts may vary acrosstechnologies or cloud providers, services provided at IaaSlevel from one provider to another. This paperintroduces run-time platform that enables the deploymentand execution on multi-clouds with guaranteedquality service (QoS), details underlying ofthe unified layer...
Wireless community networks, WCN, have proliferated around the world. Cheap off-the-shelf WiFi devices enabled this new network paradigm where users build their own infrastructure in a do-it-yourself alternative to traditional operators. The fact that are responsible for administration of nodes makes very dynamic. There frequent reboots networking devices, and join leave network. In addition, unplanned deployment it heterogeneous, with both high low capacity links. Therefore, anomaly...
Latest advances in information technology and the widespread growth different areas are producing large amounts of data. Consequently, past decade a number distributed platforms for storing processing datasets have been proposed. Whether development or production, monitoring applications running on these is not an easy task dedicated tools were proposed this scope. In paper we present distributed, scalable, highly available platform able to collect, store, query process data obtained from...
Nowadays, massive amounts of data are acquired, transferred, and analyzed nearly in real-time by utilizing a large number computing storage elements interconnected through high-speed communication networks. However, one issue that still requires research effort is to enable efficient monitoring applications infrastructures such complex systems.
