Contextual information that affects the learner during a learning process includes background knowledge, learning time, learning location, and environmental situation. The computer programming skills of learners improve rapidly if they are encouraged to solve real-world programming problems. It is important to guide learners based on their contextual information in order to maximize their learning performance. In this paper, we proposed a cloud-supported machine learning system (CSMLS), which assists learners in learning practical …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Modern power systems are highly complicated and nonlinear in nature. Accurate estimation of the power system states (voltage-magnitude and phase-angle) is required for the secure operation of the power system. The presence of bad-data measurements in meters has made this estimation process challenging. An efficient estimator should detect and eliminate the effect of bad data during the estimation process. Least measurement rejected (LMR) is a robust estimator that has been found successful in dealing with various categories of bad data. The performance of LMR depends upon the proper selection of a tolerance for each measurement. This paper presents a novel …

A Heuristic Algorithm To Find Rupture Degree In Graphs, Rafet Durgut, Tufan Turaci, Hakan Kutucu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Since the problem of Konigsberg bridge was released in 1735, there have been many applications of graph theory in mathematics, physics, biology, computer science, and several fields of engineering. In particular, all communication networks can be modeled by graphs. The vulnerability is a concept that represents the reluctance of a network to disruptions in communication after a deterioration of some processors or communication links. Furthermore, the vulnerability values can be computed with many graph theoretical parameters. The rupture degree $r(G)$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is an important graph vulnerability parameter and defined as $r(G)=max\{\omega(G-S)- S -m(G-S):\omega(G-S)\geq2, S\subset V \}$, where …

Schedulability Analysis Of Real-Time Multiframe Cosimulations On Multicore Platforms, Muhammad Uzair Ahsan, Mehmet Hali̇t Seyfullah Oğuztüzün
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
For real-time simulations, the fidelity of simulation depends not only on the functional accuracy of simulation but also on its timeliness. It is helpful for simulation designers if they can analyze and verify that a simulation will always meet its timing requirements without unnecessarily sacrificing functional accuracy. Abstracting the simulated processes simply as software tasks allows us to transform the problem of verifying timeliness into a schedulability analysis problem where tasks are checked as to whether they are schedulable under the timing constraints or not. In this paper we extend a timed automaton-based framework due to Fersman and Yi for …

Quantification Of Resistive Wall Instability For Particle Accelerator Machines, Fati̇h Yaman
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The aim of this study is to quantify longitudinal resistive wall impedances, corresponding wake functions, and wake potentials for different accelerator machines of interest. Accurate calculations of wake potentials by particle-in-cell codes are extremely difficult for the investigated parameters; therefore, we use an analytical approach and consider large domains with fine discretization for the required numerical integrations. The semianalytical wake potential computations are benchmarked against numerical general purpose 2D/3D Maxwell solver software codes and a different analytical approach for a certain set of parameters. We report examples to illustrate limitations of wake potential estimations from coupling impedances, and computations for …

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications
Multicharged carbon ions are generated by using a laser-assisted spark-discharge ion source. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser pulse (1064 nm, 7 ns, ≤ 4.5 × 109 W/cm2) focused onto the surface of a glassy carbon target results in its ablation. The spark-discharge (∼1.2 J energy, ∼1 µs duration) is initiated along the direction of the plume propagation between the target surface and a grounded mesh that is parallel to the target surface. Ions emitted from the laser-spark plasma are detected by their time-of-flight using a Faraday cup. The ion energy-to-charge ratio is analyzed by a three-mesh retarding field …

We developed a new type of chalcohalide glasses with physicochemical and nonlinear optical properties that are tunable by composition. It is found that more than 60 mol.% CdCl2 heavy metal halide can be dissolved into the ternary Ge–Sb–S system and forming stable glasses. The visible-light transparency range is extended to shorter wavelengths with the addition of CdCl2, which is beneficial for the optical quality control and infra-red (IR) system alignment. The third-order optical nonlinearity (TONL) is studied using the femtosecond Z-scan method. The results show that both the nonlinear refractive index and two photon absorption co-efficient decrease with CdCl2. Benefiting …

Articles
A novel all fibre Q-switched Thulium-doped fibre laser (TDFL) is reported which includes a short length of a Thulium–Holmiumco-doped fibre (THDF) as a saturable absorber. A high repetition rate (27.26 kHz) coupled with a low pulse width (19.06μs) is obtained for single wavelength Q-switched pulse operation at an output wavelength of 1911.5 nm using a pump power of 200 mW. Increasing the pump power from 200 mW to 700 mW results in the repetition rate increasing from 27.26 kHz to 99.67 kHz and the pulse width decreasing from 19.06μs to 920 ns. The centre wavelength of the single Q-switched pulse …

Articles
A novel multi-wavelength continuous Thulium-doped fibre laser incorporating a microfibre coil resonator based on black phosphorus (MCR-BP) material has been successfully fabricated and demonstrated. A twelve-wavelength spectrum with 0.54 nm channel spacing has been achieved by simply adjusting the pump source power. A single peak extinction ratio of more than 40 dB was observed. The superior performance of the MCR-BP described in this article compared to conventional MCR based fibre lasers can be attributed the inclusion of the Black Phosphorous Material. The enhanced lasing is primarily due to the twin properties of the MCR-BP device combining a comb-like filter effect …

Ingaas Nbn Swir Detector Design With Lattice-Matched Inalgaas Barrier, Fati̇h Uzgur, Serdar Kocaman
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Dark current optimization with band gap engineering has been numerically studied for InGaAs nBn type infrared photodetectors. Undoped InAlGaAs grading layers are utilized in constructing the barrier and dipole delta-doped layers are placed in both sides of the graded layers for eliminating valence band offset. As a result, the high band gap barrier layer blocks the majority carriers and allows minority carrier flow while minimizing various dark current components, as expected from an nBn detector. Substantial improvement has been shown in the dark current level without compromising any photoresponse compared to the conventional pn junction and recently proposed all InGaAs …

Design Of Energy Recovery Systems: Thermoelectric Combi Boiler Generator Andpower Analysis, Abdullah Hakan Yavuz
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Gas-fired combi boilers are commonly used to meet the need for heating and general-purpose hot water in developing countries. In this study, a thermoelectric combi boiler generator (TECBG) was developed. When the boiler is operated, cold water flows through the cold surface of TECBG and enters the boiler. In the same way, it is used by flows through the hot surface of TECBG in heated water. Thus, temperature difference occurrs between the surfaces of TECBG. The temperature difference is converted into electrical energy by Seebeck effect. The proposed system was implemented on a domestic combi boiler. The maximum temperature difference …

Parallel Brute-Force Algorithm For Deriving Reset Sequences From Deterministic Incomplete Finite Automata, Uraz Cengi̇z Türker
Parallel Brute-Force Algorithm For Deriving Reset Sequences From Deterministic Incomplete Finite Automata, Uraz Cengi̇z Türker
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A reset sequence (RS) for a deterministic finite automaton $\mathscr{A}$ is an input sequence that brings $\mathscr{A}$ to a particular state regardless of the initial state of $\mathscr{A}$. Incomplete finite automata (FA) are strong in modeling reactive systems, but despite their importance, there are no works published for deriving RSs from FA. This paper proposes a massively parallel algorithm to derive short RSs from FA. Experimental results reveal that the proposed parallel algorithm can construct RSs from FA with 16,000,000 states. When multiple GPUs are added to the system the approach can handle larger FA.

As a solution, Dynamic Spectrum Access policies are being ratified to promote spectrum sharing for various spectrum bands and to improve the spectrum utilization. This poses an equally challenging problem of enforcing these spectrum policies. The distributed and dynamic nature of policy violations necessitates the use of autonomous agents to implement efficient and agile enforcement systems. The design of such a fully autonomous enforcement system is complicated due to the …
