Optimal Resource Deployment in an Infostation-Based Network

This paper considers the problem of finding an optimal deployment of information resources on an InfoStation network in order to minimize the overhead and reduce the time needed to satisfy user requests for resources. The RG-Optimization problem and an approach for its solving are presented as well.

Knowledge Presentation and Reasoning with Loglinear Models

Our approach for knowledge presentation is based on the idea of expert system shell. At first we will build a graph shell of both possible dependencies and possible actions. Then, reasoning by means of Loglinear models, we will activate some nodes and some directed links. In this way a Bayesian network and networks presenting loglinear models are generated.
