PhD. Eng. Andrzej Paszkiewicz participated in the international scientific conference ISAT (Information Systems Architecture and Technology). It was already its 40th edition. The purpose of the ISAT is to discuss a state-of-art of information systems concepts and applications as well as architectures and technologies supporting contemporary information systems. This year it took place in Wrocław on 15-17-09.2019. As part of this conference, PhD. Eng. Andrzej Paszkiewicz gave a paper on "Evolutionary approach based on the Ising model to analyze changes in the structure of the IT networks". This paper presents a solution based on the Ising model considering the long-term nature of changes taking place in the network infrastructure. It takes into account the individual nature of separate nodes expressed through the parameter of their susceptibility to possible changes. This parameter directly affects the conviction of a given node about the need to change the state in which it is currently to another one, dominating in its environment. Thanks to the introduced modification of the algorithm, modeled processes occurring in IT networks are more peaceful and changes have an evolutionary character. This paper is published in the proceedings volume in Springer’s "Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing" (https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-30440-9_6).
Research in this area was carried out as part of task 2 of the project “Regional Center of Excellence for Automation and Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications at Rzeszów University of Technology” financed by the Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Poland.
