Push-Pull Cache Consistency Mechanism For Cooperative Caching In Mobile Ad Hoc Environments, Lilly Sheeba Selvin, Yogesh Palanichamy
Push-Pull Cache Consistency Mechanism For Cooperative Caching In Mobile Ad Hoc Environments, Lilly Sheeba Selvin, Yogesh Palanichamy
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Maintaining data consistency between data cached by a mobile client and data residing in the data server is a major issue in a wireless mobile environment. In this paper, we propose a push-pull cache consistency (2P2C) mechanism, with the intention of increasing the rate of serving requestors with recent up-to-date information or data from the cache of the intermediate nodes that are exact replicas of the data present in the origin server. This is a hybrid scheme that does not rely entirely either on the server or on the mobile client for maintaining consistency. Here we employ a registration process. …
Design And Implementation Of A Compact Avionics Instrument For Light Aviation, Mustafa Emre Aydemi̇r
Design And Implementation Of A Compact Avionics Instrument For Light Aviation, Mustafa Emre Aydemi̇r
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this study, a low-cost compact avionics instrument has been designed and implemented for light aviation vehicles such as ultralight airplanes, hang glider-trikes, and paramotors. At the moment there are a few commercial products that provide flight data and vehicle statuses such as altitude, temperature, fuel level, and engine hours meter. However, due to low production rates, customization for different air vehicles, and complex electronics and signal processing hardware, these instruments are generally far from being affordable; their cost may even be more than that of the air vehicle. This study presents a novel approach such that recent state-of-the-art hardware …

Partial discharge (PD) signal detection can be used for insulation monitoring of power system equipment. Online PD detection as a main task of insulation monitoring for different power system equipment is a difficult procedure when environmental noise is taken into account. This paper proposes a new scheme based on the Bhattacharyya distance approach with the main goal of detecting the PD signals in cross-linked polyethylene cables. The proposed method, as a preprocessing tool, can be used for detection of PD signals in a noisy environment. The simplicity and the accuracy of the Bhattacharyya distance approach are the 2 main advantages …
Intensity Exposure-Based Bi-Histogram Equalization For Image Enhancement, Tang Jing Rui, Nor Ashidi Mat Isa
Intensity Exposure-Based Bi-Histogram Equalization For Image Enhancement, Tang Jing Rui, Nor Ashidi Mat Isa
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we present a study of the usage of intensity exposure in histogram segmentation and its performance in histogram equalization. Two techniques are proposed: the mean-based bi-histogram equalization plateau limit (mean-BHEPL) or median-based BHEPL (median-BHEPL) and adaptive bi-histogram equalization algorithm (ABHE). Both techniques initially divide the input histogram into two subhistograms through a threshold value computed from the intensity exposure of the image. Histogram clipping for mean-BHEPL and median-BHEPL is then performed on these subhistograms using the mean and median values, respectively. Conventional histogram equalization is also implemented on each clipped subhistogram. The second proposed technique, ABHE, applies …

The Use Of Cross-Company Fault Data For The Software Fault Prediction Problem, Çağatay Çatal
The Use Of Cross-Company Fault Data For The Software Fault Prediction Problem, Çağatay Çatal
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
We investigated how to use cross-company (CC) data in software fault prediction and in predicting the fault labels of software modules when there are not enough fault data. This paper involves case studies of NASA projects that can be accessed from the PROMISE repository. Case studies show that CC data help build high-performance fault predictors in the absence of fault labels and remarkable results are achieved. We suggest that companies use CC data if they do not have any historical fault data when they decide to build their fault prediction models.

The Phononic Crystal Interface Layer Determines Slow-Wave And Pulse Broadening Effects, Li Sun, Aiming Ji, Jialing Hu, Canyan Zhu, Lijun Zhang, Jianfeng Yang, Lingfeng Mao
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The relationship among the slow-wave and echo pulse broadening effects in reflected acoustic waves and the width of the interface layer of phononic crystal has been theoretically investigated. It has been observed that not only the slow time for the reflected acoustic wave but also the echo pulse broadening reaches a saturation point as the size of the phononic crystal increases. From the viewpoint of the acoustic wave, there is an interface layer in the crystal that determines the slow-wave and the echo pulse broadening effects. The longest slow time, which is the time needed for transmitting 0.08 periods of …
