    Gamified Text Testing for Sustainable Fairness
    (Mdpi, 2023) Takan, Savas; Ergun, Duygu; Katipoglu, Goekmen
    AI fairness is an essential topic as regards its topical and social-societal implications. However, there are many challenges posed by automating AI fairness. Based on the challenges around automating fairness in texts, our study aims to create a new fairness testing paradigm that can gather disparate proposals on fairness on a single platform, test them, and develop the most effective method, thereby contributing to the general orientation on fairness. To ensure and sustain mass participation in solving the fairness problem, gamification elements are used to mobilize individuals' motivation. In this framework, gamification in the design allows participants to see their progress and compare it with other players. It uses extrinsic motivation elements, i.e., rewarding participants by publicizing their achievements to the masses. The validity of the design is demonstrated through the example scenario. Our design represents a platform for the development of practices on fairness and can be instrumental in making contributions to this issue sustainable. We plan to further realize a plot application of this structure designed with the gamification method in future studies.

    Systematic Mapping on Quality in Web Application Testing
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Akbulut,S.; Gebreyesus,Y.T.; Mishra,A.; Yazici,A.
    Similar to all other fields of study, assuring the quality of web applications is very important. 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.

    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.

    Inductance Measurement Methods for Surface-Mount Permanent Magnet Machines
    (Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2023) Ertan, H. Bulent; Sahin, Ilker
    Analytical performance estimation of a permanent magnet (PM) motor requires an accurate equivalent circuit model. In a lumped electrical model of a PM motor, resistance and inductances appear as passive elements, which are used to represent the phase winding resistance, inductance, core loss, etc. There is currently no available standard for parameter measurement of PM motors. In the literature, there are many studies on inductance measurement. However, they are applied to different types of motors. The purpose of this study is to evaluate those different inductance measurement methods, on the same motors, to identify whether they lead to the same result. Also, it was aimed to find out the difficulties involved in the measurement process. This study concentrates on determining the d -axis and q -axis inductances of two different surface-mount PM motors at standstill and under running conditions. The standstill measurement methods evaluated include the "current decay " method and the "dc inductance bridge " method as well as more common methods. The dependence of the inductances on the current magnitude, frequency, and excitation signal waveform is investigated. Measurements with PWM and sinusoidal ac voltage excitation are found to give similar results. The tests indicated that the "current decay " method is prone to measurement errors especially when the phase resistance is low. It is discovered that inductance measurements from standstill tests are independent of frequency for all practical purposes. Next, the same inductances are measured, while the test motors are running. The methods considered include; inductance measurement from no-load test, zero power factor (PF) load test, and unity PF load test; while the machine is in generating mode. Furthermore, a new inductance measurement method is introduced where the measurement is made while the test motor is driven with a vector-controlled drive. Finally, inductance measurement results from different standstill tests and running tests are compared and evaluated.
