Remote Monitoring and Management systems are Information Technology (IT) software tools to organize and manage distributed client workstations from a central point. They are used by many large-scale technology companies that are willing to minimize their labor cost needed for running the IT infrastructure, collect and measure the data of clients within the organization, administrate them from a single point, in a reliable and secure way. Dynamic user profile deployment, dynamic reconfiguration of remote monitors in response to changes in clients' workstations and creating on- the-fly notifications according to monitor results are the main features of remote monitoring and management systems. These features can be fully implemented by Dynamic Software Product Line (DSPL) Engineering. DSPL for Remote Monitoring of Computer Systems aims to provide IT Service Providers with a dynamically reconfigurable, reusable and easy to define monitoring and measurement mechanism. The presented study offers monitoring mechanisms and it also provides an infrastructure for further management applications. It applies DSPL engineering concepts which are well defined in academic studies but not extensively implemented in business realm. It enables IT management systems with reusable and autonomously monitoring software assets. This study also provides a remote monitoring application as a case study, constructed by using the aforementioned DSPL with the help of the reusable software components.

A Software benchmarking methodology for effort estimation
Nabi, Mina; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2012)
Software project managers usually use benchmarking repositories to estimate effort, cost, and duration of the software development which will be used to appropriately plan, monitor and control the project activities. In addition, precision of benchmarking repositories is a critical factor in software effort estimation process which plays subsequently a critical role in the success of the software development project. In order to construct such a precise benchmarking data repository, it is important to have ...
An Automated defect detection approach for cosmic functional size measurement
Yılmaz, Gökçen; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2012)
Software size measurement provides a basis for software project management and plays an important role for its activities such as project management estimations, process benchmarking, and quality control. As size can be measured with functional size measurement (FSM) methods in the early phases of the software projects, functionality is one of the most frequently used metric. On the other hand, FSMs are being criticized by being subjective. The main aim of this thesis is increasing the accuracy of the measu...
Modeling and code generation for a reference software architecture for naval platform command and control systems
Turhan, Nafiye Kübra; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Department of Computer Engineering (2017)
Many software teams who work in a particular domain develop software products compliant with a specific Reference Software Architecture. By adopting a Reference Software Architecture within an organization, software development schedule tend to shorten, efficiency of software development process and quality of software product tend to increase. Architectures of all application software that are developed by Sea Defense Systems Software Team are created based on a predefined Reference Software Architecture n...
A Cloud Based Workflow for a Finite Element Analysis Preprocessor
Kurt, Tolga; Arıcı, Yalın; Kurç, Özgür (2015-03-24)
This paper presents a cloud based workflow and a software implementation that has a web-based GUI and a modular backend server which consists of an interface and many worker applications that are distributed over a network of computers or virtual machines. The implemented software is capable of three-dimensional modelling, mesh generation and analysis of large dam models using finite element and analysis. Visualization is performed with a web browser using the JavaScript library three.js which drives the We...
An intelligent fuzzy object-oriented database framework for video database applications
Özgür, Nezihe Burcu; Yazıcı, Adnan; Department of Computer Engineering (2007)
Video database applications call for flexible and powerful modeling and querying facilities, which require an integration or interaction between database and knowledge base technologies. It is also necessary for many real life video database applications to incorporate uncertainty, which naturally occurs due to the complex and subjective semantic content of video data. In this thesis study, firstly, a fuzzy conceptual data model is introduced to represent the semantic content of video data. UML (Unified Mod...
