Analyses Of Surface Dose From High Energy Photon Beams For Different Clinical Setup Parameters, Nadi̇r Küçük, Ayhan Kiliç, Gönül Kemi̇kler, Lütfi̇ Özkan, Kayihan Engi̇n

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Surface and build-up region doses of 6, 15 and 25 MV photon beams were investigated for several clinical setup parameters. Evaluated setups included open fields, physical wedge (PW) fields, virtual wedge (VW) fields and blocked fields. The effects of field size, acrylic block tray, source-to-surface distance (SSD) and off-axis distance on surface dose were determined for each of these setups. Siemens Mevatron MD2 (6-15 MV) and Mevatron-KD2 (6-25 MV) linear accelerators were used to measure both the surface and build-up region doses. The surface dose increased as field size increased in open fields. There was no significant difference between 6 …


Solving Fuzzy Linear Programming Problems With Linear Membership Function, Rafail R. Gasimov, Kürşat Yeni̇lmez Jan 2002

Solving Fuzzy Linear Programming Problems With Linear Membership Function, Rafail R. Gasimov, Kürşat Yeni̇lmez

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we concentrate on two kinds of fuzzy linear programming problems: linear programming problems with only fuzzy technological coefficients and linear programming problems in which both the right-hand side and the technological coefficients are fuzzy numbers. We consider here only the case of fuzzy numbers with linear membership functions. The symmetric method of Bellman and Zadeh [2] is used for a defuzzification of these problems. The crisp problems obtained after the defuzzification are non-linear and even non-convex in general. We propose here the ``modified subgradient method'' and use it for solving these problems. We also compare the new …

Cpl: A Language For Real-Time Distributed Object Programming, Erhan Saridoğan, Nadi̇a Erdoğan Jan 2002

Cpl: A Language For Real-Time Distributed Object Programming, Erhan Saridoğan, Nadi̇a Erdoğan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

As processing and time requirements of computer systems increase over the borders of single processor architectures, it is becoming more and more attractive to use distributed computing with additional real-time capabilities. In several cases, traditional programming languages have become insufficient to build distributed systems easily, especially when real-time issues and basic software quality factors are concerned. In this paper, a concurrent, object-oriented, distributed real-time programming language, CPL, with a supportive run-time system, namely the CORD-RTS, is introduced and new language features are described. The new language provides an efficient solution for command and control systems by embedding distribution and real-time …

A New Congestion Control Mechanism Proposed For The Sscop Protocol, A. Hali̇m Zai̇m

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

International Telecommunication Union, Telecommunications Sector (ITU-T) Recommendation Q.2110 states that the update of a granted credit window to the transmitter (VR(MR)) is implementation dependent. In this paper, a new algorithm is designed to control the traffic flow coming from malfunctioning users. The VR(MR) parameter is controlled for that purpose. The simulation results show that this new technique nearly doubles the system performance.

Walkthrough In Complex Environments At Interactive Rates Using Level-Of-Detail, Alper Selçuk, Uğur Güdükbay, Bülent Özgüç

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

One of the biggest problems in computer graphics is displaying huge geometric models at interactive rates. A lot of work has been done to achieve the required frame-rates in architecture, simulation, computer-aided design and entertainment applications. In this paper, a system that enables walkthrough in complex environments using level-of-detail approximations is explained. The system uses hierarchical triangulated models as input. In the preprocessing phase, multiresolution models of objects are created using polygonal simplification techniques. During walkthrough, fast frustum culling based on bounding boxes is performed to eliminate branches of hierarchy that are not visible. An appropriate level for detail of …


A New Petri-Net-Based Synthesis Technique For Supervisory Control Of Discrete Event Systems, Murat Uzam, Anthony H. Jones Jan 2002

A New Petri-Net-Based Synthesis Technique For Supervisory Control Of Discrete Event Systems, Murat Uzam, Anthony H. Jones

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A new Petri-net-based top-down synthesis technique for supervisory control of Discrete Event Systems (DES) is proposed to solve the forbidden state problem. The supervisors obtained are compiled supervisors, whose control policy is represented as a net structure, as opposed to mapping supervisors, whose control policy is computed as a feedback function of the marking of the system. The compiled supervisors obtained by using the technique proposed in this paper are both nonblocking and maximally permissive. The supervisors to be synthesised consist of a controlled Automation Petri Net model of the system. Automation Petri Nets (APN) include the following extensions to …


Approximations On The Aggregate Mpeg Video Traffic And Their Impact On Admission Control, Fati̇h Alagöz Jan 2002

Approximations On The Aggregate Mpeg Video Traffic And Their Impact On Admission Control, Fati̇h Alagöz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we investigate the aggregate traffic approximations for the Motion Pictures Expert Group (MPEG) coded variable bit rate (VBR) video traffic and their impact on admission control at a desired Quality of Service (QoS) level. In order to generate the MPEG coded VBR video traffic, we use a novel source model that employs a mixture of two first-order autoregressive processes with lognormally distributed residuals (2LAR). The model parameters are found based on least square estimates to capture the marginal distribution and autocorrelation function as well as the single server queuing behavior of an MPEG coded empirical bitstream. We …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this work, new oscillator topologies based on a recently introduced active element, namely inverting second-generation current conveyor, are presented. This recently introduced unity gain based active element is suitable for integrated circuit realization and can easily be implemented with CMOS technology. Considering this fact, basic oscillator topologies employing a single, two and three conveyors are proposed. Several oscillator circuits based on these topologies are obtained. Expressions for oscillation conditions and frequencies are derived both for ideal and non-ideal cases. Some of them are single frequency and the others are variable frequency oscillators. The oscillators employing two and three active …

Time-Domain Simulation Of Thin Material Boundaries And Thin Panels Using Digital Filters In Tlm, J. Paul, V. Podlozny, Dave Thomas, C. Christopoulos Jan 2002

Time-Domain Simulation Of Thin Material Boundaries And Thin Panels Using Digital Filters In Tlm, J. Paul, V. Podlozny, Dave Thomas, C. Christopoulos

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, the design and implementation of digital filters for the time-domain simulation of electromagnetic wave interaction with thin material boundaries and thin panels using the Transmission-Line Modelling (TLM) method are described. The technique is applied to the description of thin ferrite layers placed on the external boundaries of the modelled space and to plastic panels placed inside the modelled space. The approach is validated using one-dimensional examples having analytic solutions. Finally, the results obtained for the Shielding Effectiveness (SE) of a practical equipment enclosure are presented to demonstrate the utility of the method in Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) prediction.
