MESCHAIN: An architecture for supply chain integration and automation on the internet

ROADMap: a novel method for role-based and decentralized process modeling Ertuğrul, Ali Mert; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2015) Role-based and decentralized process modeling allows actors to focus on modeling their own role behaviors and requires them to communicate and negotiate with each other in order to form a consistent and integrated process model. Due to the collaborative nature of role-based and decentralized process modeling, negotiations among the actors who play different roles have a crucial impact on modeling activity of overall process. Based on the communication and negotiation time among the actors, these types of pr...
UPROM : a unified business process modeling methodology / Aysolmaz, Banu; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2014) The information captured in business process models can be utilized for many artifacts in the organizations. However, relations between the models and related artifacts are usually either not established or only partially formed. This results in increased effort, consistency, completeness and maintainability problems regarding the artifacts. This study proposes a unified business process modeling methodology, UPROM to integrate analysis for process documentation and automation so that related artifacts can ...
Memetic algorithms for timerabling problems in pricate schools Aldoğan, Deniz; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Department of Computer Engineering (2005) The aim of this study is to introduce a real-world timetabling problem that exists in some private schools in Turkey and to solve such problem instances utilizing memetic algorithms. Being a new type of problem and for privacy reasons, there is no real data available. Hence for benchmarking purposes, a random data generator has been implemented. Memetic algorithms (MAs) combining genetic algorithms and hill-climbing are applied to solve synthetic problem instances produced by this generator. Different types...
GSPA: a generic software process assessment tool Yürüm, Ozan Raşit; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2014) Performing process improvement to deliver the qualified products with expected cost on time has been a requirement for organization targeting to be successful in software market. Software organizations usually perform process improvement based on well-known process assessment frameworks such as CMMI and ISO 15504. As improvement needs diverge, a number of process assessment models such as Automotive SPICE, Enterprise SPICE, Brazilian Software Improvement, and Agile Maturity Model are derived. In addition, s...
QEVM: quality integrated earned value management Efe, Pınar; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2015) Software project management discipline is in need of valuable tools and techniques to complete projects in agreed scope, on time and within budget according to customer needs. Earned Value Management (EVM) is a simple and powerful performance management and feedback tool, which is widely used in project management with an increasing interest particularly in last decade. EVM clearly displays the project progress in terms of scope, cost and schedule and enables predicting future of the project based on the tr...
