    Mobile applications discovery: a subscriber-centric approach
    (Wiley Periodicals, 2011-03) Erman, Bilgehan; İnan, Ali; Nagarajan, Ramesh; Uzunalioğlu, Hüseyin
    Rapid adoption of smartphones and the business success of the Apple App Store have resulted in the rampant growth of mobile applications. Seeking new revenue opportunities from application development has created a gold rush. However, free or very cheap applications constitute a great bulk of the application downloads putting great pricing pressure on the developers. Furthermore, usage statistics suggest that most of the applications have been either one-trick applications or are downright useless, meriting no attention from the user beyond the first day. This is not surprising since cheap prices will dissuade developers from investing large sums of money to continue to develop more sophisticated, high quality applications. Developers have been complaining about the lack of visibility of their applications in stores that are beginning to resemble a high volume warehouse. It is clear that enhancing application discovery and building better marketing tools will be essential for the continued success of the mobile application marketplace and application stores. This paper proposes and investigates techniques for effective discovery of applications by matching user interests with application characteristics, with a special focus on adapting classical data mining techniques to user ratings of the applications. The user ratings are leveraged to make recommendations on potential applications of interest.

    Adaptive incident escalation in SOCs via AI-driven skill-aware assignment and tier optimization
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2026-04-15) Abuaziz, Ahmed; Çeliktaş, Barış
    Modern Security Operations Centers (SOCs) face significant operational bottlenecks driven by escalating alert volumes, increasingly sophisticated cyberattack vectors, and chronic imbalances in analyst workloads. Conventional rule-based escalation models frequently fail to account for the multi-dimensional nature of incident characteristics, the nuances of analyst expertise, and fluctuating operational demands. This study proposes a comprehensive AI-driven framework for intelligent incident assignment and workload optimization. The framework introduces five primary contributions: 1) a multi-factor scoring model that integrates severity and complexity metrics with dynamic workload balancing; 2) two novel optimization algorithms, Quantile-Targeted Normality-Regularized Optimization (QT-NRO) and Joint Optimization of Weights and Thresholds (JOWT), to calibrate scoring coefficients against target analyst utilization; 3) a Large Language Model (LLM) engine leveraging Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for semantic alignment between incident requirements and analyst expertise; 4) an Adaptive Capacity Zoning mechanism for dynamic workload management; and 5) a novel RAG Relevance Score metric—a pre-resolution, semantic alignment indicator that quantifies analyst-incident assignment quality independently of resolution time, addressing a fundamental limitation of traditional temporal metrics such as Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) and providing a reusable benchmark applicable to any skill-aware assignment system. In addition, the framework incorporates a feedback-based continuous learning mechanism that utilizes historical resolution data to inform future assignments. An experimental evaluation using 10,021 real-world incidents from Microsoft Defender demonstrates that the JOWT algorithm achieves a tier distribution alignment within 0.8% of targets. LLM-enhanced semantic matching yields improvements between 26.7% and 126.8% in skill alignment across both normal-load and high-load evaluations, while simulations indicate a 31.8% reduction in MTTR. These results substantiate the efficacy of AI-driven methodologies in enhancing SOC operational efficiency and response precision.
