The Publisher Application System (PAS) is a Web-based archiving and online evaluation system developed by the Database Evaluation Group (DEG), one of the working groups formed within the Anatolian University Libraries Consortium (ANKOS). The DEG was formed in 2008 to inquire and evaluate e-resources suited to the needs of the consortium; to follow up similar consortial activities worldwide as well as developments in connection with the scientific publishing industry; and to determine, implement, and improve pricing models in accordance with the prevailing economic, legal, and academic system. Development of the PAS was essential to ensure standardization and sustainability towards a more detailed and effective analysis of e-resources qualifying for evaluation by ANKOS. The PAS played an important part not only in establishing and defining the workflow of the DEG, but also in creating an archive of both the e-resources submitted to the consortium and the applicant publishers/agents submitting these resources. This article outlines the process that started with the foundation of the DEG through the formation of the PAS as well as the present setup of the system. It is also hoped that this case study will have a positive contribution to the processes being followed by the persons and the groups engaged in similar activities. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc.

Face recognition using Eigenfaces and neural networks
Akalın, Volkan; Severcan, Mete; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2003)
A face authentication system based on principal component analysis and neural networks is developed in this thesis. The system consists of three stages; preprocessing, principal component analysis, and recognition. In preprocessing stage, normalization illumination, and head orientation were done. Principal component analysis is applied to find the aspects of face which are important for identification. Eigenvectors and eigenfaces are calculated from the initial face image set. New faces are projected onto ...
Adoption of online multimedia resources in a general chemistry laboratory course context: A case study
Tisoglu, Secil; Çağıltay, Kürşat; Kursun, Engin (2020-01-01)
Pre-laboratory practices and online pre-laboratory resources have been implemented in laboratory courses through various instructional approaches. This study seeks to elicit information about how online multimedia resources are embraced and used in the course system and which factors might affect the adoption of the resources in this context. This research was designed as a case study in order to explore the enablers and barriers of online multimedia resource adoption and associated problems in the system t...
Automated integration of real-time and non-real-time defense systems
Dalkiran, Emre; Onel, Tolga; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Demir, Kadir Alpaslan (2021-04-01)
Various application domains require the integration of distributed real-time or near-real-time systems with non-real-time systems. Smart cities, smart homes, ambient intelligent systems, or network-centric defense systems are among these application domains. Data Distribution Service (DDS) is a communi-cation mechanism based on Data-Centric Publish-Subscribe (DCPS) model. It is used for distributed systems with real-time operational constraints. Java Message Service (JMS) is a messaging standard for enterpr...
MODA: A Micro Adaptive Intelligent Learning System for Distance Education
Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur (2008-10-22)
The paper presents a multi-agent module, called MODA, to provide micro-level adaptiveness in learning management systems (LMS). The adaptiveness provides uniquely identifying and monitoring of the learner's learning process according to the learner's profile. The paper covers the pedagogical framework behind the adaptation mechanism, the architecture of MODA and its agents, the protocol providing communication between MODA and LMS, and a sample application of the module to an open source learning management...
Knowledge discovery in microarray data of bioinformatics
Kocabaş, Fahri Salih; Baykal, Nazife; Department of Health Informatics (2012)
This thesis analyzes major microarray repositories and presents a metadata framework both to address the current issues and to promote the main operations such as knowledge discovery, sharing, integration, and exchange. The proposed framework is demonstrated in a case study on real data and can be used for other high throughput repositories in biomedical domain. Not only the number of microarray experimentation increases, but also the size and complexity of the results rise in response to biomedical inquiri...
