    A Software Development Process Model for Cloud by Combining Traditional Approaches
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2015) Hacaloglu, Tuna; Eren, P. Erhan; Mishra, Deepti; Mishra, Alok
    Even though cloud computing is a technological paradigm that has been adopted more and more in various domains, there are few studies investigating the software development lifecycle in cloud computing applications and there is still not a comprehensive software development process model developed for cloud computing yet. Due to the nature of cloud computing that is completely different from the traditional software development, there is a need of suggesting process models to perform the software development systematically to create high quality software. In this study, we propose a new conceptual Software Development Life Cycle Model for Cloud Software Development that incorporates characteristics of different process models for traditional software development. The proposed model takes traditional model's specific characteristics into account and also considers cloud's specific nature i.e. advantages and challenges as well.

    Examining the Use of Non-Fungible Tokens (nfts) as a Trading Mechanism for the Metaverse
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Yilmaz,M.; Hacaloğlu,T.; Clarke,P.
    The notion of a metaverse seems hard to define but encourages the impression that it can be considered as a new virtual metaphysical landscape that somehow goes beyond our geographical locations and understanding (i.e., independent of time and space). Based on virtual reality, augmented reality, and blockchain, it is envisioned as an independent but extended world that is planned to be a digital virtuality entrenched not only in our old habits such as gaming and entertainment but also in virtual asset trade. In particular, trading is a pillar of the virtual economy, and auction houses will be crucial for Metaverse trading. This exploratory study examines the possibility of using an auction environment to improve the trading capabilities in a virtual universe. We investigate the cases of creating a virtual auction house with the potential of social trading of virtual assets with crypto coins and bartering. To this end, we built a virtual auction house and tested it initially using a set of scenarios. Our preliminary findings suggest that creating a virtual trading environment would be beneficial as an environment for buying and selling virtual assets and exploring their consequences. © 2022, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

    Wear Resistance Performance of Boron Nitride Coatings on End Milling Cutters
    (Inderscience Publishers, 2017) Çetin,B.; Durkaya,G.; Kurtuldu,H.; Hacaloglu,T.; Gurbuz,M.; Kaftanoǧlu,B.
    For defence industry applications, the machining of ultra-high strength steels or aluminium with ballistic temper grades is a widely-used operation. Therefore, it is a great challenge to find an optimum solution for tool wear. In that sense, tool coatings provide various solutions for machining of hard materials or improving wear resistance. A cost-effective tool coating provides longer tool life, hence decreases the tool cost contribution in production. Boron nitride (BN) coating could be thought as a new generation coating method compared to titanium nitride (TiN), aluminium titanium nitride (AlTiN) or silicon aluminium oxy-nitride (SiAlON). BN coating material has a great strength, toughness and chemical stability whereas it has an important disadvantage of high intrinsic stress. In this industrial study, standard end mill cutters are coated with BN material by physical vapour deposition (PVD) method. The coated and uncoated milling tools are compared according to their wear resistance and the obtained workpiece surface roughness. First results of the study are presented in this paper. © 2017 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.

    An Exploratory Case Study on Effort Estimation in Microservices
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Unlu,H.; Hacaloglu,T.; Omural,N.K.; Caliskanel,N.; Leblebici,O.; Demirors,O.
    Software project management plays an important role in producing high-quality software, and effort estimation can be considered as a backbone for successful project management. Size is a very significant attribute of software by being the only input to perform early effort estimation. Even though functional size measurement methods showed successful results in effort estimation of traditional data-centric architectures such as monoliths, they were not designed for today's architectures which are more service-based and decentralized such as microservices. In these new systems, the event concept is highly used specifically for communication among different services. By being motivated by this fact, in this study, we looked for more microservice-compatible ways of sizing microservices using events and developed a method accordingly. Then, we conducted an exploratory case study in an organization using agile methods and measured the size of 17 Product Backlog Items (PBIs) to assess how this proposed method can be useful in effort estimation in microservices. The implication from the case study is that despite performing a more accurate effort estimation using the proposed size measurement than COSMIC, we were unable to significantly outperform using the total number of events. However, our suggested approach demonstrated to us a different way to use software size in terms of events, namely, to determine the coupling complexity of the project. This finding can be beneficial specifically when evaluating the change requests. © 2023 IEEE.

    Teaching Software Verification and Validation Course: a Case Study
    (Tempus Publications, 2014) Mishra, Deepti; Hacaloglu, Tuna; Mishra, Alok; Computer Engineering; Software Engineering; Information Systems Engineering
    Software verification and validation (V & V) is one of the significant areas of software engineering for developing high quality software. It is also becoming part of the curriculum of a universities' software and computer engineering departments. This paper reports the experience of teaching undergraduate software engineering students and discusses the main problems encountered during the course, along with suggestions to overcome these problems. This study covers all the different topics generally covered in the software verification and validation course, including static verification and validation. It is found that prior knowledge about software quality concepts and good programming skills can help students to achieve success in this course. Further, team work can be chosen as a strategy, since it facilitates students' understanding and motivates them to study. It is observed that students were more successful in white box testing than in black box testing.

    Exploratory Review of Quantum Computing Software Requirements Specification and Their Measurement
    (CEUR-WS, 2024) Hacaloglu, T.; Soubra, H.; Bourque, P.
    Quantum software sets itself apart from classical software owing to its powerful computational abilities rooted in entanglement and superposition. Unlike classical software, quantum software diverges notably across various dimensions, including computational models, hardware architectures, algorithms, deployment platforms, and problem domains. Quantum software is also often not standalone and interacts heavily with classical software, stressing the importance of carefully considering hybridization. From a software engineering standpoint, researchers generally agree that a different approach is required for quantum software, and they advocate a Quantum Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). This exploratory study briefly outlines the specifics of quantum software, overviews the proposed approaches regarding the software requirements of quantum software, and then reviews the current alternatives for measuring the functional size of quantum software. This study indicates that only a few papers in the literature discuss the requirements and functional size measurements of quantum software. Their results are also mostly conceptual and have not yet been empirically validated. Functional size measurement using quantum software remains an open area for further research. © 2024 Copyright for this paper by its authors.

    A Survey on Cosmic Students Estimation Challenge
    (CEUR-WS, 2022) Hacaloglu,T.; Say,B.; Unlu,H.; Omural,N.K.; Demirors,O.
    Software project management is a significant software engineering practice that is highly related to achieving software-specific project goals. This study aims to share students’ perceptions of incorporating an international software estimation challenge called “COSMIC Students’ Estimation Challenge” into a software project management course. For this aim, students were taught the COSMIC Functional Size Measurement method and entered the competition. After the competition, a questionnaire asking for the students’ opinions was collected. The objective of the research is to get an insight into to what extent incorporating this type of competition activity -a challenge- can contribute to students’ learning perceptions. In the long run, the findings can contribute to creating a foresight about making the necessary curriculum arrangements to form a more up-to-date and dynamic education plan by including the methods applied in the software industry in Software Engineering education. The results suggest that this kind of competition experience and preparation is helpful for students to learn the COSMIC method. © 2020 Copyright for this paper by its authors.

    Effort Estimation for Agile Software Development: Comparative Case Studies Using Cosmic Functional Size Measurement and Story Points
    (Association for Computing Machinery, 2017) Salmanoglu,M.; Hacaloglu,T.; Demirors,O.
    Agile methodologies have gained significant popularity among software development organizations during the last decade. Although agile methodologies are regarded as minimizing formal processes, they still utilize an estimation methodology for proper management. Story point is the most common input for agile effort estimation. Story point is an arbitrary measure; it reflects experiences of project participants. On the other hand, functional size is an alternative measure used in practice as an input for effort estimation. In this research, we collect and present the outcomes of three case studies which compared the effectiveness of COSMIC-based and story point based effort estimation in agile context. On selected projects of these organizations, software functional size was measured with COSMIC functional size measurement methodology. Effort prediction models were formed by using COSMIC size and actual effort spent; and the models were tested in terms of their effectiveness. The results show controversial outcomes. For all the cases, COSMIC based estimation was more precise. Therefore, COSMIC is an appropriate measure to estimate the effort in organizations that adopt agile software development. It is also observed that COSMIC allowed for computing productivity which has less disperse distribution than the productivity computed with SP. The data is also provided to help other researchers conduct their own studies. © 2017 Association for Computing Machinery.

    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.

    Software Change Size Measurement: an Exploratory Systematic Mapping Study
    (CEUR-WS, 2024) Hacaloglu, T.; Küçükateş Ömüral, N.; Kılınç Soylu, G.; Demirörs, O.
    Change in software projects can occur through various channels. Customers may request modifications or new features; appraisal activities such as reviews or testing may uncover issues that necessitate adjustments, or products may need to adapt to changes in their operating environment. Therefore, it is essential to assess these changes explicitly and objectively within the scope of software engineering activities. Specifically, quantifying change by measuring its size is crucial for successful management, as without a meaningful metric, it is impossible to accurately assess its impact on the project's effort, schedule, and cost. This study aims to explore the concept of change in software engineering literature, with a particular emphasis on the methods used to measure its size. The study reveals that the current literature on this topic is still in its early stages and the measurement and estimation of changes remain challenging throughout both development and maintenance phases. According to the reviewed articles, size is primarily used for effort estimation. Various software artifacts from different stages of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) serve as input for change measurement, highlighting the need for a versatile size measurement applicable across all SDLC phases. Most of the reviewed articles interpret change in the context of maintenance activities. This research sets a benchmark for the status of software size measures for software change and highlights related problems to suggest further research topics. © 2024 Copyright for this paper by its authors.
