Abstract: The paper describes the instrumental algorithms and software tools for the module "StS-CFRN.Filter" in numerical library "StS-Filter." The module is based on series approximations. It gives the opportunity to synthesize differential and difference normal suboptimal filters for specific nonlinear stochastic systems.
Such StS have the following peculiarities: observation equations do not include Poisson noise and coefficient at Wiener noise does not depend on state variables. Special attention is paid to the software tools based on symbolic and nonsymbolic algorithms. The practical efficiency of the software tools has been illustrated.

Keywords: complex fraction-rational nonlinearities (CFRN); module "StS- CFRN.Filter;" normal approximation method (NAM); numerical library "StS- Filter;" stochastic linearization method (SLM); stochastic systems (StS)

  • I. N. Sinitsyn
  • E. R. Korepanov
  • V. V. Belousov

Abstract: Methodological and algorithmical support for analytical modeling of normal (Gaussian) processes in continuous and discrete stochastic systems (StS) with complex fractional order Bessel nonlinearities (spherical, modified spherical, and Airy) is given. The developed StS support is based on the methods of normal approximation and statistical linearization. For complex fractional order, Bessel nonlinearities series and Hermite representations are used. Special attention is paid to symbolic algorithms and software based on modern computer algebra systems (CAS). A short survey of CAS StS application is given. The test example is devoted to noise immunity of Bessel fraction order oscillator in stochastic media.

  • S. F. Tyurin
  • Y. G. Diachenko

Abstract: The design of digital devices with both reliability and energy-efficiency is one of the important directions of information technologies development. The self-timed circuits have unique properties - width operation range, self-testing for stuck-at faults and energy-consumption decrease. The ability of self-test makes self-repair techniques better and more perspective for self-timed circuits. However, the fault-tolerance is necessary for some fields of application. The key difference between different techniques of reliability improvement is researched in this paper by the example of proposed technical solutions that realize most efficient designing methods. The usage of complex indices provides comparison of designs.

Keywords: self-timed; reliability; fault-tolerance; failsafe feature

ARCHITECTURAL VULNERABILITIES OF DISTRIBUTED INFORMATION SYSTEMS.
  • A. A. Grusho
  • N. A. Grusho
  • E. E. Timonina
  • S. Ya. Shorgin

Abstract: The paper is devoted to the analysis of architectural vulnerabilities of the distributed information systems. Such vulnerability, which cannot be closed by the existing set of mechanisms of information security or for which ways of its closing are unknown, is called an architectural vulnerability in the distributed information systems. The examples of architectural vulnerabilities show that usually, these vulnerabilities are connected with the inadmissible or missed from attention interactions in distributed information systems. For closing or partial closing of architectural vulnerabilities, a special architecture which does not allow directly forbidden interactions was created. For this purpose, it is possible to use methods of restriction of influences of some components of distributed information systems on other components.

Keywords: vulnerabilities of distributed information systems; architectural vulnerabilities; methods of architectural vulnerabilities analysis

MIXTURES OF NORMAL DISTRIBUTIONS IN THE PROBLEM OF REFERENCE POINTS SEARCH USING MYOGRAMS.
  • T. V. Zakharova
  • M. M. Podlesnyy

Abstract: The paper is devoted to investigation of myogram probability characteristics. This signal represents a record of electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. It is widely used in medical research, including the determination of reference points in the problem of localization of functional brain areas. The authors propose to take finite scale-location mixtures of normal distributions as a mathematical model of myogram noise. Separation of mixtures is solved by the stochastic EM (expectation-maximization) algorithm and obtained data are used to reveal start points for movements using CUSUM statistics. Finally, the authors compare the new algorithm with the method based on window variance thresholding, which is already used in the MEG center.

Keywords: myogram; mixtures of probability distributions; stochastic EM algorithm; CUSUM statistics

SEGMENTATION OF INFORMATION-TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE OF SITUATIONAL CENTER BY THE LOOP SECURITY ATTRIBUTE.
  • A. A. Zatsarinny
  • V. I. Korolev

Abstract: Situational center is shown as the key system of critical important objects of information-technology (IT) infrastructure. Based on this, the article formulates the principal terms that should be used for solution of the situational centers information security problem. It is justified that creation and management of information resources are part of the basic functions of IT-infrastructure of situational center. In this sense, a situational center is regarded as an accumulative information system with different information sources and forms of its information presentation. It is shown that allocation of processing circuits by security classification is one of the simplest ways to make a primary data input nonconflict in the perimeter of a situational center for their further safe processing. The authors propose an implementation of the architecture where certified superimposed and embedded data protection facilities are used to provide the information security.

ON THE INFORMATION AND MEDIALITERACY TEACHING IN THE SCHOOLS OF RUSSIA.
  • D. A. Bogdanova

Abstract: The article analyzes the State Federal Educational Standard and Exemplary Basic Educational Programs of basis primary and middle education with the account on contemporary western primary and middle school experience in inclusion into curriculums some aspects on information and media literacy as basic concepts of e-safety. The analysis concludes that, despite the references in each of the individual aspects of the documents, one way or another related to security on the Internet, they lack clearly articulated expectations and clear recommendations on the formation of the necessary skills. Besides, an unexpected result was received. The conclusion was made on the absence of measures for developing in all subjects' programs aimed at creating universal educational actions contributing to the achievement of these metasubject results. A separate chapter in the program that describes the conditions, under which only the results could be achieved, was identified as the evidence of contradictions.

Keywords: media literacy; information literacy; e-safety; state federal educational standard on exemplary basic primary education; exemplary basic educational programs of basis primary education; metasubject results; teaching- learning activities; information technologies; digital literacy
