Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 14A Decentralized Application for Secure Messaging in a Trustless Environment(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Abdulaziz,M.; Culha,D.; Yazici,A.Blockchain technology has been seeing widespread interest as a means to ensure the integrity, confidentiality and availability of data in a trustless environment. They are designed to protect data from both internal and external cyberattacks by utilizing the aggregated power of the network to resist malicious efforts. In this article, we will create our own decentralized messaging application utilizing the Ethereum Whisper protocol. Our application will be able to send encrypted messages both securely and anonymously. We will utilize the Ethereum platform to deploy our blockchain network. This application would be resistant to most suppression tactics due to its distributed nature and adaptability of its communication protocol. © 2018 IEEE.Conference Object Informatics Engineering Education in Turkey and Expectations of Software Industry;(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Yazici,A.; Mishra,A.; Karakaya,Z.; Ustunkok,T.In this study, using the ÖSYM data, the number of intakes in Informatics Engineering programs in Turkey, accreditation data and the medium of instruction of the program are summarized for the years 2016 and 2017. In addition, the software sector's expectations from the informatics engineering graduates are reassessed based on the academic studies. The developed knowledge-skill gap set was used to evaluate the situation in Turkish informatics engineering programs. Sector expectations are discussed in the context of 2017-2019 Turkey Software Sector Strategy and Action Plan prepared by the Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology of Turkey and some proposals are made for the academia. As a result, it was observed that the expectations of the software industry were similar in all studies. Additionally, the expectations were changed in the direction of developing technologies and this change should be reflected in the informatics engineering programs. © 2018 IEEE.Conference Object Perceptions, Expectations and Implementations of Big Data in Public Sector : Kamuda Buÿük Veri: Alglar, Beklentiler Ve Uygulamalar(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Dogdu,E.; Ozbayoglu,M.; Yazici,A.; Karakaya,Z.Big Data is one of the most commonly encountered buzzwords among IT professionals nowadays. Technological advancements in data acquisition, storage, telecommunications, embedded systems and sensor technologies resulted in huge inflows of streaming data coming from variety of sources, ranging from financial streaming data to social media tweets, or wearable health gadgets to drone flight logs. The processing and analysis of such data is a difficult task, but as appointed by many IT experts, it is crucial to have a Big Data Implementation plan in today's challenging industry standards. In this study, we performed a survey among IT professionals working in the public sector and tried to address some of their implementation issues and their perception of Big Data today and their expectations about how the industry will evolve. The results indicate that most of the public sector professionals are aware of the current Big Data requirements, embrace the Big Data challenge and are optimistic about the future. © 2018 IEEE.Conference Object A Comparison of Stream Processing Frameworks(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Karakaya,Z.; Yazici,A.; Alayyoub,M.This study compares the performance of Big Data Stream Processing frameworks including Apache Spark, Flink, and Storm. Also, it measures the resource usage and performance scalability of the frameworks against a varying number of cluster sizes. It has been observed that, Flink outperforms both Spark and Storm under equal constraints. However, Spark can be optimized to provide the higher throughput than Flink with the cost of higher latency. © 2017 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 25A Comparison of Stream Processing Frameworks(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Karakaya,Z.; Yazici,A.; Alayyoub,M.This study compares the performance of Big Data Stream Processing frameworks including Apache Spark, Flink, and Storm.

With the aim of increasing web applications quality in testing, our task in this paper is to reflect on the results of the literature searches made in this area. The literature survey carried out in this study searches for studies in the area of quality in application testing and retrieves 1972 papers, published within the timeframe of 2006 and 2016. The publications are systematically identified, analyzed, and classified and an overview of the trends in this specialized field is presented. Systematic mapping is applied to review and structure the body of knowledge related to quality in web application testing. To conduct our study, we selected a set of 27 papers published in the area of quality in web application testing between 2006 and 2016. The results of this work can help other researchers to obtain an overview of the existing web application testing quality trends and approaches as well as to identify areas in the field that require more attention from research point of view. © 2019 IEEE.Conference Object A Decentralized Application for Secure Messaging in a Trustless Environment(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Abdulaziz,M.; Yazıcı, Ali; Culha,D.; Yazici,A.; Çulha, Davut; Yazıcı, Ali; Çulha, Davut; Software Engineering; Software EngineeringBlockchain technology has been seeing widespread interest as a means to ensure the integrity, confidentiality and availability of data in a trustless environment.

Each of the SPFs has different cutting edge technologies in their steps of processing the data in motion that gives them a better advantage over the others. Even though, the cutting edge technologies used in each stream processing framework might better them, it is still hard to say which framework bests the rest under different scenarios and conditions. In this study, we aim to show trends and differences about several SPFs for Big Data by using the Systematic Mapping (SM) approach. To achieve our objectives, we raise 6 research questions (RQs), in which 91 studies that conducted between 2010 and 2015 were evaluated. We present the trends by classifying the research on SPFs with respect to the proposed RQs which can help researchers to obtain an overview of the field. © 2016 IEEE.
