Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Automating Software Size Measurement With Language Models: Insights From Industrial Case Studies(Elsevier Science Inc, 2026) Unlu, Huseyin; Tenekeci, Samet; Kennouche, Dhia Eddine; Demirors, OnurObjective software size measurement is critical for accurate effort estimation, yet many organizations avoid it due to high costs, required expertise, and time-consuming manual effort. This often leads to vague predictions, poor planning, and project overruns. To address this challenge, we investigate the use of pre-trained language models - BERT and SE-BERT - to automate size measurement based on textual requirements using COSMIC and MicroM methods. We constructed one heterogeneous dataset and two industrial datasets, each manually measured by experienced analysts. Models were evaluated in three settings: (i) generic model evaluation, where the models are trained and tested on heterogeneous data, (ii) internal evaluation, where the models are trained and tested on organization-specific data, and (iii) external evaluation, where generic models were tested on organization-specific data. Results show that organization-specific models significantly outperform generic models, indicating that aligning training data with the target organization's requirement style is critical for accuracy. SE-BERT, a domain-adapted variant of BERT, improves performance, particularly in low-resource settings. These findings highlight the practical potential of tailoring training data for broader adoption and cost-effective software size measurement in industrial contexts.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 12Event Oriented Vs Object Oriented Analysis for Microservice Architecture: an Exploratory Case Study(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021) Ünlü, Hüseyin; Tenekeci, Samet; Yıldız, Ali; Demirörs, OnurThe rapidly developing internet infrastructure together with the advances in software technology has enabled the development of cloud-based modern web applications that are much more responsive, flexible, and reliable compared to traditional monolithic applications. Such modern applications require new software design paradigms and architectures. Microservice-based architecture (MSbA), which aims to create small, isolated, loosely-coupled applications that work in cohesion, becoming widespread as one of these approaches. MSbA allows the developed applications to be deployed and maintained separately, as well as scaled on demand. However, there is no de facto method for the analysis and design of systems for these architectures. In this paper, we compared the usefulness of the object-oriented (OO) and event-oriented (EO) approaches for analyzing and designing MS-based systems. More specifically, we performed an exploratory case study to analyze, design, and implement a software application dealing with the 'application and evaluation process of graduate students at IzTech'. This paper discusses the results of this case study. We observe that the EO approaches have significant advantages with respect to the OO approaches.
