    On the Lupas q-analogue of the Bernstein Operator
    (Rocky Mt Math Consortium, 2006) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    Let R-n(f,q;x) : C[0, 1] -> C[0, 1] be q-analogues of the Bernstein operators defined by Lupas in 1987. If q = 1, then R-n (f, 1; x) are classical Bernstein polynomials. For q not equal 1, the operators R-n (f, q; x) are rational functions rather than polynomials. The paper deals with convergence properties of the sequence {R-n (f, q; x)}. It is proved that {R-n (f, q(n); x)} converges uniformly to f(x) for any f(x) is an element of C[0, 1] if and only if q(n) -> 1. In the case q > 0, q not equal 1 being fixed the sequence I R. (f, q; x) I converges uniformly to f(x) is an element of C[0, 1] if and only if f(x) is linear.

    How Analytic Properties of Functions Influence Their Images Under the Limit q-Stancu Operator
    (Springer Basel AG, 2026) Gurel, Ovgu; Ostrovska, Sofiya; Turan, Mehmet
    In the study of various q-versions of the Bernstein polynomials, a significant attention is paid to their limit operators. The present work focuses on the impact of the limit q-Stancu operator Sq infinity,alpha on the analytic properties of functions when 0 < q < 1 and alpha > 0. It is shown that for every f is an element of C[0, 1], the function S-q,(alpha infinity)fadmits an analytic continuation into the disk {z : z+alpha/(1-q) < 1+ alpha/(1-q)}. In addition, it is proved that the more derivatives f has at x = 1, the wider this disk becomes. Further, if f is infinitely differentiable at x = 1, then the function S-q,(alpha infinity)fis entire. Finally, some growth estimates for (S-q,(alpha infinity)f)(z) are obtained.

    Organizational Issues in Embracing Agile Methods: an Empirical Assessment
    (Springer india, 2021) Mishra, Alok; Abdalhamid, Samia; Mishra, Deepti; Ostrovska, Sofiya
    This study provides empirical evidence to the body of knowledge in Agile methods adoption in small, medium and large organizations in international context. This research explores the factors involved in the adoption of Agile methods in software development organizations. A survey was conducted among Agile professionals to gather survey data from 52 software organizations in seven countries across the world. Statistical techniques are applied towards empirical assessment. Organizational culture, team structure and management support are found to be crucial success factors whereas lack of management support, a large organization size and traditional organizational culture are found to be detrimental for the adoption of Agile approach in an organization. The selection of an appropriate Agile method depends on the project size and, for each size, there are specific methods preferred by different enterprises. Providing better control over the work is viewed as the primary advantage of the Agile methods within large and small organizations, while for the medium-size organizations, the priority is switched to coping with changing user requirements. Majority of the respondents did not consider embracing agile methods as a reason for project failure which indicates that Agile methods are, indeed, beneficial.

    On the Moment-Determinacy of Power Lindley Distribution and Some Applications To Software Metrics
    (Acad Brasileira de Ciencias, 2021) Khalleefah, Mohammed; Ostrovska, Sofiya; Turan, Mehmet
    The Lindley distribution and its numerous generalizations are widely used in statistical and engineering practice. Recently, a power transformation of Lindley distribution, called the power Lindley distribution, has been introduced by M. E. Ghitany et at who initiated the investigation of its properties and possible applications. In this article, new results on the power Lindley distribution are presented. The focus of this work is on the moment-(in)determinacy of the distribution for various values of the parameters. Afterwards, certain applications are provided to describe data sets of software metrics.

    Personal Response Systems Through the Prism of Students' Experiences
    (Wiley, 2020) Mishra, Deepti; Chew, Esyin; Ostrovska, Sofiya; Wong, Jojo
    Personal response systems (PRSs) today offer an opportunity to the field of education in terms of improving teaching and learning outcomes through active engagement in classrooms. The present paper investigates students' attitudes to different types of PRSs, namely, Socrative and Clickers. Both qualitative and quantitative data are gathered and classified. The performed thematic analysis reveals major categories within the framework of this study, namely educational efficacy, psychological aspects, technology-related issues, and administrative issues. It has been found that Socrative fares better in the "educational efficacy" and "administrative issues," whereas Clickers outperforms Socrative in the "technological-related issues." It is worth pointing out that both Socrative and Clickers are tantamount in "psychological aspects" yielding no negative experiences. The results of this study reveal that two main factors, cost and technological infrastructure, are determinative in the incorporation and appreciation of such systems in an educational setting.

    Assessing Team Work in Engineering Projects
    (Tempus Publications, 2015) Mishra, Deepti; Ostrovska, Sofiya; Hacaloglu, Tuna; Mathematics; Computer Engineering; Information Systems Engineering
    Team work is considered a valuable teaching technique in higher education. However, the assessment of an individual's work in teams has proved to be a challenging task. Consequently, self-and peer-evaluations are becoming increasingly popular for the assessment of individuals in a team work, though it is essential to determine whether students can judge their own as well as their peer's performance effectively. Self-and peer-evaluations have been applied in different disciplines and their authenticity with regard to teacher's assessment has been evaluated in the literature but this issue has not been investigated in the field of engineering education so far. In this study, a peer-and self-assessment procedure is applied to the evaluation of a project work conducted in teams of 3 or 4 students. The participants were engineering students taking two similar courses related with database design and development. It is found that a majority of the students were unable to assess themselves as objectively as their instructor. Further, it is observed that successful students tend to under-estimate, whereas unsuccessful students tend to over-estimate, their own performance. The paper also establishes that the results of self-assessments are independent from the gender factor.

    On the q-bernstein Polynomials of Piecewise Linear Functions in the Case q > 1
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2013) Kaskaloglu, Kerem; Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The aim of this paper is to present new results related to the approximation of continuous functions by their q-Bernstein polynomials in the case q > 1. The first part of the paper is devoted to the behavior of the q-Bernstein polynomials of piecewise linear functions. This study naturally leads to the notion of truncated q-Bernstein polynomials introduced in the paper. The second part deals with the asymptotic estimates for the norms of the m-truncated q-Bernstein polynomials, in the case where both n and q vary. The results of the paper are illustrated by numerical examples. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    On the Approximation of Analytic Functions by the q-bernstein Polynomials in the Case q > 1
    (Kent State University, 2010) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    Since for q > 1, the q-Bernstein polynomials B(n,q) are not positive linear operators on C[0, 1], the investigation of their convergence properties turns out to be much more difficult than that in the case 0 < q < 1. In this paper, new results on the approximation of continuous functions by the q-Bernstein polynomials in the case q > 1 are presented. It is shown that if f is an element of C[0, 1] and admits an analytic continuation f(z) into {z : |z| < a}, then B(n,q) (f; z) -> f (z) as n -> infinity, uniformly on any compact set in {z : |z| < a}.

    Functions Whose Smoothness Is Not Improved Under the Limit q-bernstein Operator
    (Springer, 2012) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The limit q-Bernstein operator B-q emerges naturally as a modification of the Szasz-Mirakyan operator related to the Euler probability distribution. At the same time, this operator serves as the limit for a sequence of the q-Bernstein polynomials with 0 < q < 1. Over the past years, the limit q-Bernstein operator has been studied widely from different perspectives. Its approximation, spectral, and functional-analytic properties, probabilistic interpretation, the behavior of iterates, and the impact on the analytic characteristics of functions have been examined. It has been proved that under a certain regularity condition, B-q improves the smoothness of a function which does not satisfy the Holder condition. The purpose of this paper is to exhibit 'exceptional' functions whose smoothness is not improved under the limit q-Bernstein operator. MSC: 26A15; 26A16; 41A36
