Publication Metadata only SCORING: Towards Smart Collaborative cOmputing, caching and netwoRking paradIgm for Next Generation communication infrastructures(IEEE, 2022) Hmitti, Zakaria Ait; Ben Ammar, Hamza; Soyak, Ece Gelal; Kardjadja, Youcef; Malektaji, Sepideh; Ali, Soukaina Ouledsidi; Rayani, Marsa; Saqib, Muhammad; Taghizadeh, Seyedreza; Ajib, Wessam; Elbiaze, Halima; Ercetin, Ozgur; Ghamri-Doudane, Yacine; Glitho, Roch; University of Quebec; University of Quebec Montreal; Sabanci University; Concordia University - Canada; Bahcesehir UniversityThe unprecedented increase of heterogeneous devices connected to the Internet, along with tight requirements of future networks, including 5G and beyond, poses new design challenges to network infrastructures. Collaborative computing, caching and communication paradigm together with artificial intelligence have the potential to enable the Next-Generation Networking Infrastructure (NGNI) that is needed to fulfill the stringent requirements of emerging applications. In this paper, we propose the SCORING project vision for reshaping the current network infrastructure towards an NGNI acting as a truly distributed, collaborative, and pervasive system that enables the execution of application-specific tasks and the storage of the related data contents in the Cloud-Edge-Mist continuum with high QoS/QoE guarantees.Publication Metadata only Characterizing Attenuation of Bumper Modifications: A Comparative Study in the E-Band(IEEE, 2024) Neubauer, Michael; Hirschmugl, Michael; Petanjek, David; Kiebach, Helge; Karamzadeh, Saeid; Kolosovs, D; Anstalt fur Verbrennungskraftmaschinen List; Bahcesehir UniversityHaving knowledge about the attenuation of the materials surrounding a radar sensor is of great importance in the automotive sector. Only then can the manufacturer guarantee the desired functionality of the sensor. Due to the fact that a lot of automotive manufacturers also started integrating radar sensors behind rear bumpers for improved visibility to the back of a car, it is vital to know how those bumpers and possible repair scenarios done to them can affect the radar sensor. This paper proposes a way to measure the attenuation in the E-band of not only square slab samples representing various types of paint and repair scenarios on automotive bumpers, but also actual rear bumpers with different types of repair scenarios. The results are then presented and compared relative to each other.Publication Metadata only Assistive Visual Tool: Enhancing Safe Navigation with Video Remapping in AR Headsets(SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2025) Sadeghzadeh, Arezoo; Islam, Md Baharul; Uddin, Md Nur; Aydin, Tarkan; DelBue, A; Canton, C; Pont-Tuset, J; Tommasi, T; Bahcesehir University; State University System of Florida; Florida Gulf Coast UniversityVisual Field Loss (VFL) is characterized by blind spots or scotomas that poses detrimental impact on fundamental movement activities of individuals. Addressing the challenges (e.g., low video quality, content loss, high levels of contradiction, and limited mobility assessment) faced by existing Extended Reality (XR) systems as vision aids, we introduce a groundbreaking method that enriches the real-time navigation using Augmented Reality (AR) glasses. Our novel vision aid employs advanced video processing techniques to enhance visual perception in individuals with moderate to severe VFL, bridging the gap to healthy vision. A unique optimal video remapping function, tailored to our selected AR glasses characteristics, dynamically maps live video content to the largest intact region of the Visual Field (VF) map. Our method preserves video quality, minimizing blurriness and distortion. Through a comprehensive empirical user study involving 29 subjects with artificially induced scotomas, statistical analyses of object counting and multi-tasking walking track tests demonstrate the promising performance of our method in enhancing visual awareness and navigation capability in real-time.Publication Metadata only Throughput-maximizing OFDMA Scheduler for IEEE 802.11ax Networks(IEEE, 2020) Kuran, Mehmet Sukru; Dilmac, A.; Topal, Omer; Yamansavascilar, Baris; Avallone, Stefano; Tugcu, Tuna; Bahcesehir University; Bogazici University; University of Naples Federico IIIn this paper, we develop a novel throughput-maximizing OFDMA scheduler for the multi-user MAC framework for the IEEE 802.11ax networks. The scheduler works both in the downlink and uplink directions and assigns resource units to stations using a linear programming technique considering load of each client, possible resource unit configurations, modulation-coding scheme of each client, and ageing factor of each client's load. The performance of the proposed scheduler has been evaluated using the NS3 simulator and compared against the legacy MAC layer mechanism of IEEE 802.11 protocol (i.e., DCF/EDCA). Simulation results show that our proposed throughput-maximizing scheduler increases the total throughput in the network as well as decrease the average end-to-end delay regardless of the number of stations connected to the access point by prioritizing the traffic of clients connected via high modulation-coding schemes.Publication Metadata only Deciding which technology is the best for distance education: Issues in media/technology comparisons studies(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2011) Yengin, Ilker; Karahoca, Adem; Karahoca, Dilek; Uzunboylu, Huseyin; Karahoca, A; Kanbul, S; University of Nebraska System; University of Nebraska Lincoln; Bahcesehir University; Near East UniversityDistance education decision makers, who will be shaping the future of distance education, should understand the role of different technologies and their unique attributes closely. In order to achieve this task accurately, they also need to know the superiorities of different technologies to each other. Media comparison studies have been conducted to see these superiorities and to help deciding which technology is better? In some studies researchers make some fundamental errors and flaws in media comparison studies for distance learning. Hence, there is a need to determine these issues in order to make decision process work better. In this review study, issues on media comparison studies in distance education discussed with theoretical backgrounds. Also in this study, reader could find what kind of flaws can occur in media comparisons studies and what cause to these flaws as well as some suggestions to avoid these flaws. In this study, five of the most significant errors scholars have made in writing and discussing distance education research in technology/media comparisons studies are determined. This study aims to help distance education policy makers, distance education researchers and instructors by making them aware of these issues in comparison studies. Hence, they could make a more accurate decision when implementing distance learning solutions in their institutions. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Code clones may become an important problem in software development cycle and they must be fixed in all occurrences. This condition increases significantly software maintenance costs and required effort/duration for understanding the code. Over the years, many techniques have been proposed in order to minimize or prevent the code cloning problems. The main focus of these techniques is on the detection of clones. In such studies, code cloning is studied under two main categories: simple and structural. Simple clone is defined as the similarity that arises from the repetition of the code snippet in the software. Structural clone is defined as the similarity in software structure (i.e. design patterns and object oriented programming class relations). Simple clone detection techniques fail to determine the reasons of code repetition whether it is due to design or not, as they do not look at the code from a wider perspective for repetitive code snippets. In this study, we survey the existing structural clones approaches. We also introduce an approach that utilizes software quality metrics for detecting the structural code clones.Publication Metadata only Is SMS Still Alive For Education: Analysis Of Educational Potentials Of SMS technology?(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2011) Yengin, Ilker; Karahoca, Adem; Karahoca, Dilek; Uzunboylu, Huseyin; Karahoca, A; Kanbul, S; University of Nebraska System; University of Nebraska Lincoln; Bahcesehir University; Near East UniversityMobile phone, especially SMS concept is a fairly old technology.

A solution for this globally recognized health problem is much required. Machine Learning techniques have brought revolutionary changes in the field of biomedical researches. Previously, It took a significant amount of time and much effort in detecting skin cancers. In recent years, many works have been done with Deep Learning which made the process a lot faster and much more accurate. In this paper, We have proposed a novel Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) based approach that can classify four different types of Skin Cancer. We have developed our model SkNet consisting of 19 convolution layers. In previous works, the highest accuracy gained on 1000 images was 80.52%. Our proposed model exceeded that previous performance and achieved an accuracy of 95.26% on a dataset of 4800 images which is the highest acquired accuracy.Publication Metadata only Optimizing the rate of a correlated MIMO link jointly over channel estimation and data transmission parameters(IEEE, 2008) Soysal, Alkan; Ulukus, Sennur; Bahcesehir University; University System of Maryland; University of Maryland College ParkWe consider a single-user correlated MIMO channel with block fading, where each block is divided into training and data transmission phases. The receiver has a noisy CSI that it obtains through a channel estimation process, while the transmitter has partial CSI in the form of covariance feedback. We optimize the achievable rate jointly over the parameters of the training and data transmission phases. In particular, we first choose the training signal to minimize the channel estimation error, and then, develop an iterative algorithm to solve for the optimum training duration, the optimum allocation of power between training and data transmission phases, and the optimum allocation of power over the antennas during the data transmission phase.Publication Metadata only An Elliptic Curve Cryptographic Processor Using Edwards Curves and the Number Theoretic Transform(SPRINGER-VERLAG BERLIN, 2015) Mentens, Nele; Batina, Lejla; Baktir, Selcuk; Ors, B; Preneel, B; KU Leuven; Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre; Radboud University Nijmegen; Bahcesehir UniversityHardware implementations of ECC processors based on Edwards curves are very useful for various applications of security due to the regularity of point operations. In this paper we explore one such direction taking advantage of the DFT modular multiplication in a special composite field of a prime characteristic. Our results show potential in terms of compactness while maintaining a feasible latency. We expect this approach to be more beneficial for side-channel security.
