Topology management in unstructured P2P networks using neural networks
2007
Resource discovery is an essential problem in peer-to-peer networks since there is no centralized index in which to look for information about resources. In a pure P2P network peers act as servers and clients at the same time and in the Gnutella network for example, peers know only their neighbors. In addition to developing different kinds of resource discovery algorithms, one approach is to study the different topologies or structures of the P2P network. In many cases topology management is based on either technical characteristics of the peers or their interests based on the previous resource queries. In this paper, we propose a topology management algorithm which does not predetermine fa…
Attracting sets in network regulatory theory
2016
Modern telecommunication networks are very complex and they should be able to deal with rapid and unpredictable changes in traffic flows. Virtual Network Topology is used to carry IP traffic over Wavelength-division multiplexing optical network. To use network resources in the most optimal way, there is a need for an algorithm, which will dynamically re-share resources among all devices in the particular network segment, based on links utilization between routers. Attractor selection mechanism could be used to dynamically control such Virtual Network Topology. The advantage of this algorithm is that it can adopt to very rapid, unknown and unpredictable changes in traffic flows. This mechani…
Sensing Capabilities Based on Dielectric Electro Active Polymers—Feasibility and Potential State-of-the-Art Application
2012
This paper presents the work in the area of sensing, using smart materials, more specific dielectric electro active polymers (DEAPs). Sensing is one of the main trio-characteristics of DEAPs; the trio-formations as applicable uses are actuator, transducer, and finally sensor. It is noted that one of the main value propositions whenever DEAP material is used, is the dual characteristics as the sensing/actuating capability. In the following work, the DEAP membrane will be modeled and the relation among the key variables (pressure and capacitance) will be determined. Hence, such a relation depends on the geometrical shape of the used membrane. The development process is carried out to propose …
A KST-BASED SYSTEM FOR STUDENT TUTORING
2008
Abstract: A novel assessment procedure based on knowledge space theory (KST) is presented along with a complete implementation of an intelligent tutoring system. (ITS) that has been used to test our theoretical findings. The key idea is that correct assessment of the student knowledge is strictly related to the structure of the domain ontology. Suitable relationships between the concepts must be present to allow the creation of a reverse path from the "knowledge state" representing the student goal to the one that contains her actual knowledge about this topic. Knowledge space theory is a very good framework to guide the process of building the ontology used, by the artificial tutor The sys…
A Logical Architecture for Active Network Management
2006
This paper focuses on improving network management by exploiting the potential of “doing” of the Active Networks technology, together with the potential of “planning,” which is typical of the artificial intelligent systems. We propose a distributed multiagent architecture for Active Network management, which exploits the dynamic reasoning capabilities of the Situation Calculus in order to emulate the reactive behavior of a human expert to fault situations. The information related to network events is generated by programmable sensors deployed across the network. A logical entity collects this information, in order to merge it with general domain knowledge, with a view to identifying the roo…
Applying Real-Time Dynamic Scaffolding Techniques during Tutoring Sessions Using Intelligent Tutoring Systems
2022
An intelligent tutoring system (ITS) is a computer system or software application that is built to replicate human tutors by supporting the theory of “learning by doing.” Even though ITSs have been proven to be successful in academic studies, they still have not found large adoption by the industry due to the complexities of building such systems due to the high technical expertise and domain knowledge requirements. Attempts have been made to build authoring tools that can provide assistance in building tutoring systems; however, most of these tools are targeted toward authors that have considerable programming experience. This research proposes an authoring tool for ITS, which is targeted …
Then and Now: Comparing the Soviet and Post-Soviet Experience in Latvian Autobiographies
2009
The article deals with an autobiographical representation of diverse experiences. Namely, through the analysis of post-Soviet Latvian autobiographies the framing of the Soviet and Post-Soviet era is revealed. The article suggests that instead of using progressive fame, which might give a positive estimation of the Post-Soviet experience, the autobiographers largely employ a nostalgic frame and continuation frame. Likewise, I argue that there are certain contexts that generate different framing practices: on the one hand, we can observe a professional context, which is typical to the former Soviet public officials, whose autobiographies utilize the nostalgic frame; on the other hand, there i…
El happening y la creación de situaciones en dos novelas de Julio Cortázar espacios de liberación y metáfora de la escritura
2013
In his 60’s theoretical texts Julio Cortázar wrote about the happening as an avant-garde and radical practice. He underlined as well the difficulties of the 60’s intelligentsia to conceptualize it properly. His novels 62. Modelo para armar and Libro de Manuel experimented with the structure of happening as a model for narrative exploration. In fact, Cortázar used the happening and the debordian idea of situation for giving a possible answer to the main debate about the relationship between critical intelligentsia and political activity.

The solutions discussed in this book will encourage the resear…
1864. Dostoevsky’s Destruction of Reason
2016
[ES] El presente artículo es un intento de situar en su contexto el pensamiento anti-nihilista de Dostoievski. Se centra en la reacción del autor ruso contra su contemporáneo Chernishevski, que se origina entre 1861 y 1864. Las novelas de este periodo son habitualmente consideradas el punto de inflexión hacia la madurez y focalizan su reflexión en temas filosóficos. Aquí se ha escogido especialmente el de la oposición de Dostoievski al positivismo de Chernishevski, que éste formulaba en términos utilitaristas o del egoísmo inteligente. Los autores contemporáneos que se han ocupado del tema han evaluado los argumentos de Dostoievski desde una clara simpatía con su oposición al radicalismo re…
