Net traffic identifier based on hierarchical clustering by Wei DING, Jie XU, Weng-hui ZHUO

“…An improved net traffic identifier algorithm was proposed based on semi-supervised clustering.Symmetrical uncertainty was used to reduce the net flow attributes,and then kernel function was used to project the rest attributes to higher dimentional space.The train net flow was clustered in high dimentional space hierarchically.Smooth factor,sihouette coefficient and entropy controlled the cluster process to get a well result.Experiments show that the algorithm got flat clusters without any huge cluster and could identify most net flow even encrypted ones.…”

Why and how to create training sessions in the form of a game at a university? by Mariia I. Sharko

“…Pedagogical conditions for the organization of classes in the form of a game and techniques for their provision are determined: to prevent the fixation of attention exclusively on the game task, students are offered to predict the goal and upcoming activities on the basis of information about the formed competencies, summarizing the results after the completion of each game stage; to take into account the characteristics of the group the introduction of additional game conditions, modification of the game, organization of educational and gaming activities of each; to ensure compliance with ethical standards adaptation of well-known stories and forms, control by the teacher and the jury; to create a favorable psychological climate turning to popular stories and games, using provocative techniques; to provide an assessment system detailed instruction of jury members, use of various forms of assessment and presentation of work.…”
