    A Metric for Measuring Test Input Generation Effectiveness of Test Generation Methods for Boolean Expressions
    (IEEE, 2021) Ufuktepe, Deniz Kavzak; Ufuktepe, Ekincan; Ayav, Tolga
    The literature includes several methods to generate test inputs for Boolean expressions. The effectiveness of those methods needs to be analyzed by extensive comparisons. To this end, mutation analysis is often benefited by applying a distinctively selected set of mutants on each test generation method. Mutation analysis provides substantive information about the effectiveness of a test suite by indicating the percentage of killed mutants, which is a common metric. However, as we claim and show in this paper, this metric alone is not sufficient to demonstrate the effectiveness of the methods. For a test generation method, the amount of generated test inputs is also an important attribute to evaluate effectiveness. To the best of our knowledge, there is no metric that measures the effectiveness within a scale taking into account several attributes. In this study, we propose a new metric to measure the effectiveness of test input generation methods, which takes into account both the number of killed mutants and the number of test inputs. We demonstrate our new metric on three well-known test input generation methods for Boolean expressions.

    A Lightweight and Energy Efficient Secrecy Outage Probability-Based Friendly Jamming
    (IEEE, 2023) Yaman, Okan; Ayav, Tolga; Erten, Yusuf Murat
    Third parties and legitimate entities can reach and process users' private data through most wireless networks. However, attackers such as intruders and eavesdroppers may also try to exploit this property in communication. Hence, wireless networks are intrinsically more vulnerable to threats, unlike their wired alternatives. Cryptographic techniques are the conventional approaches to deal with that weakness. Nevertheless, they still need to meet the requirements of contemporary technologies, including IoT nodes with energy and processing power constraints. In that respect, friendly jamming (FJ) is one of the encouraging countermeasures to overcome the mentioned susceptibility since it has an energy-efficient and computation-friendly nature. However, that promising approach brings another challenge, applicability. Although various models exist against this issue, a lightweight scheme compliant with novel technologies is needed. Hence, we propose a more straightforward FJ model evaluated on cellular network-based simulations in this study. Moreover, introducing a lightweight secrecy outage probability definition increases robustness and energy efficiency. © 2023 IEEE.

    A Novel Countermeasure for Selective Forwarding Attacks in Iot Networks
    (IEEE, 2022) Yaman, Okan; Sokat, Barış; Ayav, Tolga; Erten, Yusuf Murat
    As the Internet of Things (IoT) devices become more widespread there are rising public concerns about whether or not IoT devices and their services are secure. One of the major threats they face is selective forwarding attacks performed by malicious nodes. Although packets can be lost inherently due to network conditions, malicious nodes, such as those performing blackhole attacks, may deliberately drop some, but not all of them. Therefore, distinguishing these nodes from legitimate ones is not so easy. This study has proposed a lightweight countermeasure to deal with this kind of attack in IoT networks, using the standard IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL). The mechanism is based on Mobile Trusted Nodes (MTNs). For the given threat model, we showed that our model has robust detection accuracy and brings no additional overhead to the network. © 2022 IEEE.

    Secure Iot Update Using Blockchain
    (IEEE, 2021) Kaptan, Melike; Tomur, Emrah; Ayav, Tolga; Erten, Yusuf Murat
    In this study a platform is devised to send automatic remote updates for embedded devices. In this scenario there are Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), Software suppliers, blockchain nodes, Gateways and embedded devices. OEMs and software suppliers are there to keep their software on Inter Planetary File System (IPFS) and send the meta-data and hashes of their software to the blockchain nodes in order to keep this information distributed and ready to be requested and used. There are also gateways which are the members of the blockchain and the IPFS network. Gateways are responsible for asking for a specific update for specific devices from IPFS database using the meta-data kept on the blockchain, and they will send those hashed secure updates to the devices. In order to provide a traceable data keeping platform, gateway update operations are handled as transactions in a second blockchain network which is the clockchain of the gateways. The system was implemented as of the two separate blockchain networks and it has been shown that, despite the calculation overhead of the member devices, by separating the functions between the two blockchain networks a more reliable and secure platform can be achieved.

    Loyalty Program Using Blockchain
    (IEEE, 2020) Sönmeztürk, Osman; Ayav, Tolga; Erten, Yusuf Murat
    The traditional loyalty systems usually offer people benefits in a specific sector. The users usually need to stay within the loyalty system for a long time and accumulate points in order to win rewards which may not be very interesting for them most of the time. Additionally, users usually do not prefer to share their personal information to join these loyalty systems due to privacy concerns. It has, therefore, been observed that the number of customers in the loyalty systems is decreasing day by day. To reduce these drawbacks a loyalty program which complies with ERC20 standards was proposed in this study using tokens based on the Ethereum blockchain. Using this new generation loyalty system, users can convert their earned tokens to Ether in the market and they can receive services or products with the accumulated tokens according to their interests from any supplier that has been contracted by the manufacturer. Additionally, users in the designed system do not need to carry many different cards, it is adequate to have only one Ethereum wallet. Furthermore, users do not need to share any personal data to join the loyalty system. Suppliers can also request Ether from the manufacturer for the tokens they have accumulated from the members of the loyalty system. The proposed loyalty system has been implemented and presented in this study.

    Osek/vdx Uyumlu Katı Gerçek-zamanlı İşletim Sistemleri için Zamanlama Mimarilerinin Değerlendirilmesi
    (IEEE, 2020) Saydam, Berkay; Ayav, Tolga
    Developing technology is reflected to the vehicles as well. But it brings the challenge of adding new functionalities to vehicles without compromising safety. The chips, which are used to provide the functionalities, are determined in the first step of ECU design. This decision will effect the remaining part of the development. Designing hardware and software together with testing phase is a long process in automotive industry. Changing the design of the hardware is quite costly after an ECU begins to be used in field. For these reasons, the selection of chips is directly related to cost and the functionality which should be provided to customer. Tasks, which fulfill desired functionality, provide a balance between performance and safety. These were evaluated for an OSEK/VDX certified OS and results are presented from the scheduling algorithms point of view. © 2020 IEEE.

    Birleşimsel Devreler için Fourier Analizi Tabanlı Otomatik Test Örüntüsü Oluşturma
    (IEEE, 2015) Ayav, Tolga
    Fourier analysis of boolean functions has attracted great attention from computer scientists in the last decade but it still has few application areas. This work presents a Fourier analysis-based automatic test pattern generation method for combinational circuits.
