In a large modern enterprise, it is almost inevitable that different parts of an organization use different systems to produce, store, and search their critical data. In addition, the maintenance of heterogeneous database systems is becoming an overhead and a big problem for companies. Meanwhile, it is only achieved by combining the information from these various systems so that the enterprise can use the combined value of the data they contain. One way to solve this problem is to replace the legacy applications with a single information system. Introducing the new software is not enough; it is also necessary to migrate the data from the old system to the new one. As data has been collected over many years and contains a lot of information and knowledge, this most important value of a company must be preserved. Here, we present a specific solution based on a metadata repository model that we applied which addresses an organization's operational need to integrate the custom databases of some specific hardware dependent legacy systems. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2006.

A Joint resource allocation system for cloud computing /
Dikbayır, Hüseyin Seçkin; Bazlamaçcı, Cüneyt Fehmi; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
Cloud computing is a new trend in computing, where resources such as servers, storage devices and software applications are provided to customers over the Internet. It is typically based on a pay-per-use model similar to renting a car or taking a taxi in our daily life. The primary purpose of a cloud system is to utilize available resources effectively to provide an economic benefit to customers. To succeed in this, jobs initiated by consumers are allocated to a set of virtual machines (VM) that run in big ...
A migration management framework proposal for cobol/cics based mainframes
Kaplan, Halil; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Department of Computer Engineering (2010)
Today, mainframes contain a considerable portion of business applications worldwide. It is estimated that the current inventory of production COBOL running on mainframes is 150 to 200 billion lines of code. Despite the efforts to change within the mainframe environment, these mainframes, nowadays, face major problems for host organizations due to a combined set of financial, business related, technical and organizational problems. Moreover, the factors like diminishing resources (COBOL programmers), lack of...
A size measurement method for enterprise applications
KÜÇÜKATEŞ ÖMÜRAL, NESLİHAN; Koçyiğit, Altan; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2022-8)
Enterprise Applications are complex, effort-intensive applications that include most of the business processes of the enterprises. They differ from traditional software applications by their high reuse rates. Effort predictions for these applications are usually performed in an ad-hoc fashion and result in large variations. Prediction models utilizing traditional software size measures do not produce accurate results either. In this thesis, we developed a size measurement method considering the unique chara...
A size measurement method for Enterprise Applications
Ömüral, Neslihan Küçükateş; Demirörs, Onur (2022-01-01)
Enterprise Applications are known as one of the best practices of software reuse. They are complex applications, including most of the business processes. In this domain, size measurements and effort predictions are mostly performed in an ad-hoc fashion, and they frequently suffer from schedule and budget overruns. We developed a size measurement method for Enterprise Applications and explained this novel method in this paper. We categorized transactions as “unchanged”, “changed”, and “new” in this method. ...
A semantic-based user privacy protection framework for Web services
Tumer, A; Dogac, A; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı (2005-01-01)
Web service technology is an Internet-based distributed computing paradigm to address interoperability in heterogeneous distributed systems. In this paper, we present a privacy framework for Web services which allows user agents to automatically negotiate with Web services on the amount of personal information to be disclosed on behalf of the user. In developing this framework the following key privacy considerations are taken into account: revealing only the minimal pertinent information about the user, no...
