In this article, the impact of regulatory changes on software development is assessed in the context of military standards. A previously conducted experiment incorporating three standards is further investigated for this purpose, outlining the characteristics of the evolution in standards and its effects. In addition to this experiment that was designed with projects conducted as graduate class work, a real project from the industry is utilized, to demonstrate the similar effects of the evolution as discovered in the earlier experiment. Finally, the results of the assessment are generalized and a forecast is presented for the next potential regulation change, the IEEE Std 12207-2008.

Software subcontracting success: a case study on the relationship betweeen project success and process metrics Yücetürk, Kerem; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Information Systems (2005) While software subcontracting is a common business transaction in the information technology field, metrics specifically aimed at effectiveness of software subcontracting arrangements are not commonly available. This thesis makes a review of the literature and derives such metrics from fields of software quality, COTS acquisition and IS success. A case study is performed on software subcontracting projects of a Turkish defense contractor, and the project metrics are compared according to their success. The ...
An information system re-structuring study for the financial inspection board Yıldırım, Meltem; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Information Systems (2004) With the scope of this study, certain tasks of the finance inspectors have been restructured by means of information technology in an effective way. The new structure has been integrated to the Internet technology and thus can eliminate the problems of time and place. The Documentation and Personnel Departments of FIB have been chosen for piloting and performance assesment has been performed after the restructuring with new technology. The result of the assesment suggest that, when compared to the old syste...
Condition oriented enrichment approach in business rule management systems Yıldız, Mustafa Halil; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Department of Computer Engineering (2013) This study is about enrichment process in Business Rule Management Systems. A new approach "condition oriented enrichment" and its benefits are discussed in this study. This approach suggests adding limitation to inquiry method at enrichment service that is corresponding to related business rule's condition and targets to decrease the number of enriched values and improve performance. In this study, because most of the rules are suitable for implementation of this approach, “Turkish National Health Data Val...
Organizational learning assessment in software development organizations Chouseinoglou, Oumout; Bilgen, Semih; Yöndem, Meltem Turhan; Department of Information Systems (2012) Knowledge is one of the most important assets of an organization that directly affects business success, and its importance increases for organizations that use knowledge-intensive processes such as the software development industry. In an industry in which technological developments are rapid, in order to keep up with the continuously increasing competition and to obtain competitive advantage the software organizations need to obtain the correct knowledge, use it efficiently and pass it to future projects ...
Strategic and financial motivation and information systems outsourcing success Yarlıkaş, Serdar; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Information Systems (2007) In this thesis, the relations between information systems outsourcing success measures and strategic and financial drivers are investigated. After a study of the relevant literature, 14 organizations that belong to four different categories are investigated in terms of IS outsourcing. These categories are: IS vendors, IS outsourcers, firms that both procure and supply IS services, and IS system integrators. Thus, the subject matter is studied from both customers' and vendors' points of view. The investigati...
