Out-of-the-box it is not suited for monitoring multi-agent systems, because agents may dynamically join and leave the system or change roles. But Nagios' flexible configuration makes extensions possible. This paper presents and verifies Nagios configuration and extensions for monitoring multi-agent systems.

Experiment-aided virtual prototyping to minimize tool-workpiece vibration during boring of large-sized structures
PublicationThe paper presents the author's method of solving the problems of vi-bration suppression during boring of large-sized workpieces by means of an in-novative method of adjusting the rotational speed of the boring bar. It consists in selecting the spindle speed in accordance with the results of the cutting process simulation. The method includes identification of the model of the finite element method of the boring bar. The Root Mean...

Trust Dynamics Analysis of CTR Scheme Subversion under Virtual Anonymity and Trust-Unaware Partner Selection
PublicationWe propose a framework to study Markovian trust value dynamics in a centralized Computational Trust and Reputation (CTR) scheme under trust-unaware partner selection using a mean-value approximation. Analytically founded answers are sought to questions like: Can dishonest agents subvert the CTR scheme (i.e., acquire higher trust values than honest agents)? Is indirect reciprocity incentivized? Is there a qualitative impact of a...

An Experimentally Aided Operational Virtual Prototyping to Obtain the Best Spindle Speed during Face Milling of Large-Size Structures
PublicationAbstract: The paper presents an original method concerning the problem of vibration reduction in the general case while milling large-size and geometrically complex details with the use of an innovative approach to the selection of spindle speed. A computational model is obtained by applying the so-called operational approach to identify the parameters of the workpiece modal model. Thanks to the experimental modal analysis results,...

Adapting a general tool to monitoring multi-agent systems through virtual host layer extenstion = Rozszerzenie typowego narzędzia o warstwę hosta wirtualnego w celu monitorowania systemów agentowych
PublicationNagios to bezpłatne oprogramowanie do monitorowania infrastruktury IT. Nie jest ono dostosowane do monitorowania systemów agentowych, gdyż agenty mogą swobodnie podejmować lub zarzucać realizację działań, czy zmieniać pełnioną rolę. Bogate możliwości konfigurowania Nagios pozwalają poszerzyć jego możliwości. Artykuł przedstawia i weryfikuje konfigurację oraz rozszerzenie Nagios, umożliwiające monitorowanie systemów agentowych.

The Dynamics of Trade Relations between Ukraine and Romania: Modelling and Forecasting
PublicationThe article examines the monthly dynamics of exports, imports and balance of trade between Ukraine and Romania in the period from 2005 to 2021. Time series from 2015 to 2021 were used for modelling and forecasting (since the date the European Union–Ukraine Association Agreement took effect). Adequate models of the dynamics series of the Box-Jenkins methodology were built: additive models with seasonal component ARIMA (Autoregressive...

Strony WWW bibliotek jako element promocji i narzędzie komunikacji z użytkownikiem
PublicationW artykule przedstawiono zasady tworzenia stron WWW bibliotek, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem bibliotek kościelnych. Zwrócono uwagę na elementy interfejsu i narzędzia służące informacji o zbiorach i usługach, a także promocji działalności biblioteki. Omówiono narzędzia z obszaru Web 2.0, służące komunikacji z użytkownikami w przestrzeni wirtualnej w czasie rzeczywistym (takie jak komunikatory, czaty, formularze zapytań) na przykładzie...
