The importance of ballistic applications has been recently recognized due to the increasing crime and terrorism threats and incidents around the world. Ballistic image analysis is one of the application areas which requires immediate response with high precision from large databases. Here, the microscopic markings on cartridge case of a bullet obtained in a crime scene are compared with that of images on ballistic databases for similarity in order to find out whether it is fired from any of the firearms within the database. In this paper, we have implemented a MapReduce solution using Hadoop for ballistic image comparison which is a high data and computation intensive task. MapReduce, a programming model developed by Google, provides a scalable, flexible and QoS guaranteed IT infrastructure particularly for embarrassingly parallel data oriented computational tasks. Our results have shown that we can effectively utilize the computing resources and gain significant increases in performance. Furthermore, we will share our experiences in programming and tuning a Hadoop cluster in the paper.

A Spatio-Temporal Crime Prediction Model for Crime Prevention
Düzgün, Hafize Şebnem; Polat, Esra (2011-05-10)
Development of effective crime prevention strategies requires understanding of the spatial/spatio-temporal occurrences of crime events and then predicting the number, place and time of crime events. In this respect, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) provide efficient tools for analyzing the spatial and spatio-temporal crime events. Similarly developing prediction models for criminal and terrorist activities can directly support crime prevention and counter-terrorism planning, respectively. This study p...
A Study on sparse array configurations for ultra-wideband imaging applications
Çetin, Beyzat Talat; Alatan, Lale; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018)
The increased number of terror attacks and crimes have grown a demand for enhancing public security systems. In this sense reliable, cost effective, fast and physically non-hazardous imaging systems should be designed. Multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO)arrayswithultra-wideband(UWB)technologyoffersgreatadvantageousfor shortrangeimagingapplicationssuchasconcealedweapondetection(CWD).Inthis thesis, it is aimed to develop a design tool for MIMO array structures to be used in UWB, near-field (NF) imaging applica...
The Dynamic response of steel beam-column elements under blast loading
Gevrek, Mebrure Itır; Yılmaz, Çetin; Department of Civil Engineering (2016)
The intensity of terrorist activities and threats have become a major problem in modern world. Several factors in the way modern societies live have made easier to conduct terrorism activities. Developed societies are dependent on complex and vulnerable systems that could be target, such as railways, pipelines, large shopping areas, airlines, subway systems and large business/trade centers. The increase in the number of domestic and international terrorist activities by each passing day have forced research...
An extensible framework for automated network attack signature generation
Kenar, Serkan; Eren, Pekin Erhan; Department of Information Systems (2009)
The effectiveness of misuse-based intrusion detection systems (IDS) are seriously broken, with the advance of threats in terms of speed and scale. Today worms, trojans, viruses and other threats can spread all around the globe in less than thirty minutes. In order to detect these emerging threats, signatures must be generated automatically and distributed to intrusion detection systems rapidly. There are studies on automatically generating signatures for worms and attacks. However, either these systems rely...
Is there any security preference for Turkey between the Eu and U.S.?
Ünal, Kemal; Bağcı, Hüseyin; Department of European Studies (2005)
The recent global security challenges such as terrorism, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction etc. have altered the security perceptions of the countries. For opposing those new security threats the U.S. and the EU generated their own security discourses. Accordingly, they tackle the issues with diverging perceptions. This diversion paves the way for a debate between two sides. In the mean time, Turkey has established her security architecture in accordance with the Western international community. ...
