Computing cryptographic properties of Boolean functions from the algebraic normal orm representation
Çalık, Çağdaş; Doğanaksoy, Ali; Department of Cryptography (2013)
Boolean functions play an important role in the design and analysis of symmetric-key cryptosystems, as well as having applications in other fields such as coding theory. Boolean functions acting on large number of inputs introduces the problem of computing the cryptographic properties. Traditional methods of computing these properties involve transformations which require computation and memory resources exponential in the number of input variables. When the number of inputs is large, Boolean functions are ...
Investigation of Students’ Cognitive Processes in Computer Programming: A Cognitive Ethnography Study
Doğan, Sibel; Aslan, Orhan; Yıldırım, İbrahim Soner (2019-01-01)
The aim of the current study is to investigate how cognitive processes of students categorized as novice, semi-expert and expert differ in terms of creating pseudocode for a given programming task. To conduct this aim, cognitive ethnography research design was employed to reveal the cognitive process of the participants behind the specified task. In the study, three undergraduate students from a Computer Education and Instructional Technology (CEIT) department were included as participants. These students w...
Computation of Spectra of Large Networks
Erdem, Özge; Karasözen, Bülent (2010-11-27)
Many interacting complex systems in biology, physics, technology and social systems can be represented in a form of large networks. The networks are mathematically represented by graphs. A graph is usually represented by adjacency or Laplacian matrix. Many important features of the underlying structure and dynamics of them can be extracted from the analysis of the spectrum of graphs. Spectral analysis of the so called normalized Laplacian matrix of large networks has become popular in recent years. The Lapl...
Constructions of maximum rank distance codes, cyclic constant dimension codes, and subspace packings
Otal, Kamil; Özbudak, Ferruh; Department of Cryptography (2018)
In this thesis, we aim to introduce main contributions to solve three main problems in coding theory. The first problem investigates the construction of inequivalent maximum rank distance (MRD) codes. Namely, we look for the constructions of the largest possible sets of $mtimes n$ matrices over a finite field $F_q$, such that the rank of the subtraction of any two different matrices in the set cannot be smaller than a certain number. Constructions of such codes under a suitable equivalence notion have taken...
Evaluation of Agility Assessment Tools: A Multiple Case Study
Adali, Onat Ege; Özcan Top, Özden; Demirors, Onur (2016-06-10)
Agile software development has been one of the most important paradigms of software engineering community. Agile methods that are shaped around Agile Manifesto and principles, provide promising results when applied properly in software organizations. Agile assessment models and tools have potential to indicate agile adoption problems at project level or organization level. In the scope of this study, we identified 37 agility assessment tools. Among those tools, we evaluated 11 agility assessment tools based...
