Performance characteristics describe the structure of descriptors

Monitoring systems, as systems for observing the state of objects, usually operate with data of some common nature, which can be successfully described further proposed hierarchical model. The initial data of observations, that is, the data of a certain subject area, which in the future presuppose the conduct of statistical studies over them, as a rule, are homogeneous in nature and, in most cases, are described in terms of descriptors and objects. On this basis, it is possible to build a fairly universal hierarchical model of data storage, focused on their subsequent statistical processing, which, in turn, can serve as an information core for building a specialized information system. The paper proposes a method of evaluating the effectiveness of descriptions of the structures having a natural hierarchy presents a study of the proposed features on the subject of production optimization problems.
