Recognition Of Infrastructure Events Using Principal Component Analysis, Lane David Broadbent
Recognition Of Infrastructure Events Using Principal Component Analysis, Lane David Broadbent
Theses and Dissertations
Information Technology systems generate system log messages to allow for the monitoring of the system. In increasingly large and complex systems the volume of log data can overwhelm the analysts tasked with monitoring these systems. A system was developed that utilizes Principal Component Analysis to assist the analyst in the characterization of system health and events. Once trained, the system was able to accurately identify a state of heavy load on a device with a low false positive rate. The system was also able to accurately identify an error condition when trained on a single event. The method employed is …
Determining Air Base Installation Capacity Through Multivariate Analysis, Perry L. Cansick
Determining Air Base Installation Capacity Through Multivariate Analysis, Perry L. Cansick
Theses and Dissertations
Per the Air Force Strategic Master Plan, the Air Force will adjust their current basing structure to provide the most effective and efficient installations to support national defense objectives. The Air Force may be required to make strategic basing decisions that close installations and relocate missions to achieve an optimal basing structure. However, before making these decisions, the Air Force needs to have a comprehensive understanding of installation capacity. This research provides an operational definition of installation capacity, which is necessary for measuring installation-level, infrastructure capacity. Using this definition, the research evaluates a set of capacity indicators using principal component …
