We analyze the information on the input data used for prediction and the choice of the predictors to be used among a set of predictors.The paper analyzes procedures for choosing a predictor during implementation of prediction online scheme.The predictability properties of random sequences, and the required and achievable accuracy based on estimating the conditional probability of prediction over past history results. Although some of these issues have been considered in sufficient detail in the literature, for example, the analysis of predictability measures, accuracy metrics, however, as will be shown, they are more focused on the problems of constructing specific prediction algorithms rather than focus on the choice of existing predictor from a given predictor set.It is shown how the specified properties of sequences and probability estimates affect the quality of the choice of predictors. Based on this analysis, a rule for choosing a predictor based on the results of previous (potential) predictions is formulated.","PeriodicalId":439561,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference Engineering Technologies and Computer Science (EnT)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126942134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article reviews key contributions made by industrial laboratories. They demonstrate the role of research within the industry in advancing science, in the days when academy was nominally associated with science and the industry, with the more technical side. It is plausible to assume that without research in the industry creating interests for academy scientists in thermionics, and luring them to industrial labs, the scientific advance in the field would have been much slower.","PeriodicalId":439561,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference Engineering Technologies and Computer Science (EnT)","volume":"157 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126596543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis of the social rating system, similar to the social credit systems in the People’s Republic of China, is carried out. Possible consequences of the application of the social credit system, both positive and negative, are analyzed. Threats that may have an undesirable effect on the social rating system are considered. It is concluded that the social rating system can be used as a tool for managing human potential, especially in social systems that to some extent use the principles of meritocracy. The conditions under which the introduction of the social rating system can have a positive effect are indicated. These conditions, first of all, include the level of confidence of the population of the state in the government.","PeriodicalId":439561,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference Engineering Technologies and Computer Science (EnT)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125188088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was vitally important for programming control computers and simulators that simulate control for technological processes. The limitation of the task to the classes of mini- and microcomputers only was explained by the fact these classes computers were used mainly in simulators and control systems.
