Branch: main (default)
Purpose: Modern, production-ready implementation
Status: Ready to start modernization
Archive work is DONE and merged to main:
- ✅
archive-2020-research- Original code preserved with all flaws - ✅
archive-2020-fixed- Bug fixes with 2020 dependencies - ✅ All critical bugs fixed and tested
- ✅ Data leakage validated (minimal 1.2% impact)
- ✅ Comprehensive documentation created
Key finding: Original 2020 research was scientifically sound. The 99%+ accuracy is legitimate due to highly distinctive botnet traffic patterns.
Date: 2025-10-26
Completed:
- ✅ Comprehensive modernization roadmap (1600+ lines)
- ✅ Architecture documentation created
- ✅ Graphviz diagram generation scripts (current + target systems)
- ✅ 5 new GitHub issues created (#25-#29)
- ✅ Updated existing issues (#17, #22, #23)
Key Documents Created:
docs/MODERNIZATION_ROADMAP.md- Complete 7-phase plandocs/MODERNIZATION_SUMMARY.md- Session summarydocs/architecture/ARCHITECTURE.md- System architecturedocs/architecture/diagrams/- Diagram generation scripts
GitHub Issues Created:
- #25: Architecture Visualization with Graphviz
- #26: Directory Restructuring - Modern src/ Layout
- #27: GitHub Actions CI/CD Pipeline
- #28: Implement Federated Learning with Flower
- #29: Comprehensive Documentation Overhaul
Date Completed: 2025-10-26 Committed: d56d93e Pushed: ✅ GitHub Priority: HIGH Status: COMPLETED
Issue: #25 ✅
Completed Tasks:
- Environment created (botnet-modern: Python 3.12.12, TF 2.19.1)
- Graphviz installed (system binary + Python wrapper)
- Generated current system diagrams (4 diagrams)
- Generated target system diagrams (7 diagrams)
- Reviewed and validated diagram quality
- Integrated diagrams into README.md
- Updated badges to reflect modernization status
- Cleaned up repository (removed SVG files, kept PNG + .gv source)
Deliverables:
- 11 PNG diagrams with clear naming (current_* vs target_*)
- Graphviz .gv sources (local only, gitignored)
- Updated README with Architecture section and badges
- Comprehensive planning docs (ROADMAP, STACK, etc.)
- Environment: Python 3.12.12, TensorFlow 2.19.1, Flower 1.22
Commands for Regeneration:
# Activate modern environment
conda activate botnet-modern
# Regenerate all diagrams
cd docs/architecture/diagrams
python generate_diagrams.py
# Output:
# - current_*.png (4 files in images/current/)
# - target_*.png (7 files in images/)
# - *.gv sources (local only, gitignored)Repository Cleanup:
- 22 files removed (SVG, .bat/.sh, summaries)
- Clear naming convention (current_* vs target_*)
- .gv files local only (not committed)
Priority: CRITICAL Status: Ready to start
Issue: #26
Tasks:
- Review target structure in MODERNIZATION_ROADMAP.md
- Create src/ directory structure
- Move anomaly-detection/ → src/anomaly_detection/
- Move classification/ → src/classification/
- Create src/data/, src/models/, src/utils/
- Update all import paths
- Create tests/ directory structure
- Add init.py files for packages
- Update documentation with new paths
- Verify all scripts still run

# 1. Pull latest main
git checkout main
git pull origin main
# 2. Create bleeding-edge modern environment (Python 3.12)
mamba env create -f environment-modern.yaml # Fast with mamba
# OR
conda env create -f environment-modern.yaml # Slower with conda
conda activate botnet-modern
# 3. Verify installation
python --version # Should be 3.12.x
python -c "import tensorflow as tf; print(f'TensorFlow: {tf.__version__}')"
python -c "import flwr; print(f'Flower: {flwr.__version__}')"
# 4. Generate architecture diagrams (First task!)
cd docs/architecture/diagrams
python generate_diagrams.py # Generates both current and target
# 5. Download all IoT devices (later, takes 1-2 hours)
cd ../../../scripts
python download_data.py
# 6. Run overfitting analysis (Sprint 3)
cd ../analysis
python overfitting_analysis.pyNew Bleeding-Edge Stack (see docs/BLEEDING_EDGE_STACK.md):
- Python 3.12 (~25% faster than 3.8!)
- TensorFlow 2.18 (latest stable)
- Keras 3.6 (framework-agnostic)
- NumPy 2.1 (major version)
- Pandas 2.2 (modern, no .append())
- Flower 1.13 (best FL framework)
- SHAP 0.46 (modern explainability)
analysis/overfitting_analysis.py- Tests 1-4 done, need 5-7docs/project-analysis/RETROSPECTIVE.md- Full resultsdocs/project-analysis/DATA_LEAKAGE_IMPACT.md- Context
- No emojis in documentation
- Prefer .yaml over .yml
- No signatures in commit messages
- Use GitHub issues/PRs for tracking
developbranch was deleted -mainis now default
- VS Code linter complains about
<div align="center">tags in README - This is fine - GitHub supports HTML in markdown
- Created
.markdownlint.jsonto disable this overly-strict rule - Badges need
<div>for centering
- Keras 3.0 has different API
- Loss functions may have different defaults
- May need to update model.compile() calls
.append()completely removed (already fixed)- Stricter dtype handling
- Some indexing behavior changes
Last Updated: 2025-10-26 Current Sprint: Sprint 1 - Foundation & Architecture Next Priority: #25 - Generate architecture diagrams
