Since 2003, almost every public institution has developed a web site through e-transformation project (eDTr) in Turkey. When there are so many institutions and different web sites, a need for standard becomes inevitable. To address this need, a standard was published by TÜRKSAT A.ġ. in January 2009 which constitutes of the rules and recommendations for these web sites referencing international web standards as well. The purpose of this study is to analyze the compatibility of public institutions‟ web sites in Turkey with the TÜRKSAT standard. In this study, 32 rules are selected to be verified for 50 public institution web sites. 20 of the rules are verified with a tool named WSSCV which is developed in the context of this thesis, 5 of the rules are verified with a commercial tool named Total Validator, and 7 of the rules are verified manually. Results show that, the standard prepared by TÜRKSAT is not used during the development of a public institution web application. Compliance of the checked web sites to the standard is very low. However, the standard also needs to be updated according to today‟s technology.

An Approach for automated verification of web applications using model checking and replaying the scenarios of counterexamples Paçin, Yudum; Betin Can, Aysu; Department of Information Systems (2015) The increase in the use of web applications in various domains, raised the importance of the methodologies for verification of web applications. We propose a framework for the verification of web applications with respect to access control, link consistency and reachability properties using model checking. In this approach, users define the properties by explanatory guidance of user interface. The execution traces that lead to a property violation is translated to a script that automates the replaying of th...
Turkey's energy strategy and development of Ceyhan as an energy hub Değirmenci, Deniz; Altunışık, Meliha; Department of Eurasian Studies (2010) This thesis aims to analyze the Turkish policy of being an energy hub. Within this context Turkey, as it is geographically very close to the two thirds of the world's proven oil and natural gas reserves, has a very big advantage to manage its location and the purpose of this study is to discuss the measures taken to utilize this advantage. Therefore relative weakness of Turkey in comparison to the other actors like Russia, the USA or the EU and the strengths of the Turkish policy like the geopolitical advan...
GAP: An Irrigation And Development Project In Turkey Taraklı, Duran (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 1989) The Southeastern Anatolia Project (GAP) in Turkey, which was initiated in 1976 with the Karakaya Dam consists of thirteen major projects. Twenty-two dams and seventeen hydroelectric power plants (HPP) with a total capacity of 7 561 MW will be constructed as part of it. GAP will provide irrigation for 1641282 hectares of land and will have an annual output of 25 003 GWh of power (1). Turkey has about 27.7 million hectares (ha) of land suitable for agriculture. Surveys show that it is economically feasible to...

The Byzantine Basilica in the city is dated back to 5th century AD. For the conservation works of the basilica, mortar samples were collected from different parts of the building and investigated for their basic physical, physico-mechanical and compositional properties. For the determination o...
Collaboration Practices in Industrial Design Education The Case of METU From a Historical Perspective, 1981-2021 Börekçi, Naz Ayşe Güzide Z.; Hasdoğan, Gülay Fatma; Korkut, Fatma (2021-12-27) METU Department of Industrial Design, as one of the leading educational institutions in Turkey, has more than 20 years of experience in collaboration projects systematically conducted with external partners. Collaboration with external partners has been a well-established instrument in design studio pedagogy at the undergraduate level in particular. Whether and in which ways the collaboration schemes, the collaborators, their goals and roles have evolved in time received relatively little attention in liter...
