As digital technology flourished, modes of interaction pertaining to computer systems started to be utilized in consumer products. As a consequence, problems peculiar to software began to be observed in once simple-to-operate products. In order to overcome these problems, one of the most versatile tools utilized during design and evaluation stages in software development, that is usability testing, was introduced to the domain of consumer products. However, both literature findings and author's personal experiences show that there are some problems with sampling issues, since participants' prior experiences with digital interfaces seem to affect test results more in the case of consumer products. In this study, after a theoretical discussion, the measurement tool being developed to control general interaction expertise (GIE) was presented. In the preliminary studies of predictive validity, correlation coefficients up to 0.76 were detected between test scores and usability performance.

Advanced readout and control electronics for mems gyroscopes
Temiz, Yüksel; Akın, Tayfun; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
This thesis reports the development of advanced readout and control electronics for MEMS gyroscopes developed at METU. These gyroscope electronics are separated into three main groups: high sensitive interface circuits, drive mode amplitude controlled self oscillation loops, and sense mode phase sensitive amplitude demodulators. The proposed circuits are first implemented with discrete components, and then integrated on CMOS chips. A self oscillation loop enabling constant amplitude drive mode vibrations in...
Digital transformation capability maturity model enabling the assessment of industrial manufacturers
Gökalp, Ebru (2021-11-01)
The utilization of on-premise technologies in the business environment is ushering in a new era known as digital transformation (DX). Although organizations are aware of the potential advantages of DX, they have faced problems creating a clear path to reshape their existing processes in line with on-premise technologies. Therefore, they need guidance from a holistic viewpoint. Maturity models (MMs) are developed to guide organizations by providing an extensive roadmap for improvement. The digital transforma...
Management of Service Function Chains in Programmable Data Plane
Yürekten, Özgür (2021-07-19)
The rapid development of information technologies necessitates the use of high-speed network technologies. Software defined networking and network function virtualization are critical technologies for high-bandwidth, dynamically managed and cost-effective networks. Offloading network functions to the data plane and management of network service function chain (SFC) using data plane programming improve network performance. In this study, the framework that enables the management of service function chains fr...
Analysis of Online and In-Store Clothes Shopping Experiences Taking a User Journey Approach
Yılmaz Ünlü, Zeynep; Şener Pedgley, Bahar; Department of Industrial Design (2022-1)
In parallel to advancements in information and communication technologies (ICT), shopping has evolved as one of the most commonly carried out daily activities in people's lives. Different ways of shopping have emerged leading to reshaping shopping experiences. The research presented in the thesis particularly focuses on the changes in online and in-store clothes shopping experiences along with people's shopping channel and medium preferences. Therefore, after reviewing the literature, two-phase fieldwork is...
The negative effect of technology-driven product design on user-product interaction and product usability
Gültekin, Pelin; Erbuğ, Çiğdem; Department of Industrial Design (2004)
In the last decades, the rapid change and prevalent use of technology are concerning, as they induced effects which mainly altered various encompassing contexts like consumer market dynamics and product development processes. Evidently, these transformations also affect the way users interact with products. It is observed that, technological novelties are applied in the competitive market as a tool for product differentiation. In addition, the rapid development of these technologies is a dominating factor o...
