Abstract:
The paper examines the expressive and formal capabilities of the theory of system-object modeling for describing knowledge about the structure, functioning and states of a computer network. Methods for describing distributed information systems using systems calculus as functional objects are considered. The limitations of using the alphabet of elementary node objects are presented. A mechanism for describing the states of a computer network node is proposed.
Keywords:system-object model, computer network, distributed information system, node object, flow object, state of a computer network node, network traffic, cyber attack.
