Recent developments in computational science and engineering allow a great deal of experimental work to be conducted through computer simulation. In a simulation experiment, a model of the phenomena to be studied is run in a computing environment under varying model and environment settings. As models are adjusted to experimental procedures and execution environments, variations arise. Models also evolve in time. Thus, models must be managed. We propose to bring Global Model Management (GMM) to bear on simulation experiment management by using techniques and tools from megamodeling. The proposed approach will facilitate model management tasks by providing an interface to query the model repository, relate models with each other, and apply model transformations from/to simulation models. Our proposed Megamodel for Simulation Experiments is based on SED-ML (Simulation Experiment Description Markup Language).

Model management for hypothesis-driven simulation experiment workflows
Çam, Sema; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Department of Computer Engineering (2022-9-05)
With today's breakthroughs in computational science and engineering, research experts can now simulate a lot of experiments on computers. Experiment specification is aided by frameworks and support systems for reusability and reproducibility of scientific research, as well as domain-specific languages, domain models, ontologies, data models, statistical analysis methods, and other types of tools and assets with related formalisms. Despite this, most frameworks or support tools for experiment specification i...
High performance number theoretic transforms in cryptography
Ulu, Metin Evrim; Cenk, Murat; Department of Cryptography (2020)
Theoretical advances in physics opened up a new window into quantum computation. This window rendered a number of mathematically hard problems unusable for cryptographic applications. For instance, Shor showed that it is possible factor integers by a quantum algorithm efficiently thus rendering the standard public-key encryption scheme RSA insecure. In February 2016, NIST launched a standardization process for post-quantum cryptography algorithms to study the effect of quantum computing on the current gener...
Development of a micro-fabrication process simulator for micro-electro-mechanical systems(mems)
Yıldırım, Alper; Dölen, Melik; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2005)
The aim of this study is to devise a computer simulation tool, which will speed-up the design of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems by providing the results of the micro-fabrication processes in advance. Anisotropic etching along with isotropic etching of silicon wafers are to be simulated in this environment. Similarly, additive processes like doping and material deposition could be simulated by means of a Cellular Automata based algorithm along with the use of OpenGL library functions. Equipped with an inte...
Analysis and testing of a contraction-and-expansion micromixer for micromilled microfluidics
Yıldırım, Ender (2017-10-01)
In this paper, numerical analysis and experimental investigation of a micromixer, which was specifically designed for microfluidic devices fabricated by micromilling, is presented. The mixer is composed of series of contractions and expansions in zigzag arrangement along a mixing channel. Mixers, fabricated by micromilling on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), were tested with %0.1 Ponceau 4R red food dye solution and distilled water. According to experiment results, over 70% mixing efficiency could be obtained...
Study of high mass Higgs using pp -> qqH
Yildiz, HD; Zeyrek, Mehmet Tevfik (2003-08-01)
The observability of the Higgs signal in the mass range of 200-800 GeV is investigated in the weak boson fusion channel at the CMS experiment at LHC. The weak boson fusion channel is characterized by two final state jets at large pseudorapidity. The forward calorimeter plays a key role in detecting these jets. The significant signals are obtained for H --> WW --> lvjj, H --> ZZ --> lljj and H --> ZZ --> llvv. Importance of the forward jet tagging and the central jet veto is emphasized to extract the signal ...
