The penalization of the objective function due to energy deficits is a key element for determining the operational policy of hydroelectric reservoirs. Its definition impacts not only operations, but also system expansion. Brazil historically defined these penalties with basis on a proxy of the economic deficit cost, a value in \$/MWh obtained with aid of the Input-Output Matrix. We propose an approach where these penalties are obtained in order to minimize the operation cost and cost of rationing of the system, considering a criterion of security of supply. A case study with data from the Brazilian System illustrates its application.

In the field of Cyber Security there has been a transition from the stage of Cyber Criminality to the stage of Cyber War over the last few years. According to the new challenges, the expert community has two main approaches: to adopt the philosophy and methods of Military Intelligence, and to use Artificial Intelligence methods for counteraction of Cyber Attacks. \cyrchar\CYRThis paper describes some of the results obtained at Technical University of Sofia in the implementation of project related to the application of intelligent methods for increasing the security in computer networks. The analysis of the feasibility of various Artificial Intelligence methods has shown that a method that is equally effective for all stages of the Cyber Intelligence cannot be identified. While for Tactical Cyber Threats Intelligence has been selected and experimented a Multi-Agent System, the Recurrent Neural Networks are offered for the needs of Operational Cyber Threats Intelligence.
