This thesis presents a preliminary goal oriented modeling of situation awareness in a command and control system. Tropos, an agent oriented software development methodology, has been used for modeling. Use of Tropos allows us to represent, at the knowledge level, the Command and Control actors along with their goals and interdependencies. Through refinement we aim to derive an architectural design for the Situation Awareness component of an Air Defense Command and Control system. This work suggests that goal oriented methodologies can be successfully used in the modeling of the complex systems at the requirement analysis phase. By analyzing dependencies between Command and Control entities, it should be possible to improve the modularity of the Command and Control system architecture.

Dynamic model integration and 3d graphical interface for a virtual ship
Çalargün, Canku Alp; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Department of Computer Engineering (2008)
This thesis addresses the improvement of a physically based modeling simulator Naval Surface Tactical Maneuvering Simulation System (NSTMSS), that combines different simulators in a distributed environment by the help of High Level Architecture (HLA), to be used in naval tactical training systems. The objective is to upgrade a computer simulation program in which physical models are improved in order to achieve a more realistic movement of a ship in a virtual environment. The simulator will also be able to ...
Evaluation of multi target tracking algorithms in the presence of clutter
Güner, Onur; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005)
This thesis describes the theoretical bases, implementation and testing of a multi target tracking approach in radar applications. The main concern in this thesis is the evaluation of the performance of tracking algorithms in the presence of false alarms due to clutter. Multi target tracking algorithms are composed of three main parts: track initiation, data association and estimation. Two methods are proposed for track initiation in this work. First one is the track score function followed by a threshold c...
A test oriented service and object model for software product lines
Parlakol, Nazif Bülent; Karagöz, Pınar; Department of Computer Engineering (2010)
In this thesis, a new modeling technique is proposed for minimizing regression testing effort in software product lines. The “Product Flow Model” is used for the common representation of products in application engineering and the “Domain Service and Object Model” represents the variant based relations between products and core assets. This new approach provides a solution for avoiding unnecessary work load of regression testing using the principles of sub-service decomposition and variant based product/sub...
A bdi-based multiagent simulation framework
Yükselen, Murat; Polat, Faruk; Department of Computer Engineering (2008)
Modeling and simulation of military operations are becoming popular with the widespread application of artificial intelligence methods. As the decision makers would like to analyze the results of the simulations in greater details, entity-level simulation of physical world and activities of actors (soldiers, tanks, etc) is unavoidable. In this thesis, a multiagent framework for simulating task driven autonomous activities of actors or group of actors is proposed. The framework is based on BDI-architecture w...
Order-preserving Models for the Supervisory Control of Flexible Manufacturing Systems
Nooruldeen, Anas; Schmidt, Klaus Verner (2019-11-01)
This paper develops a new modeling technique for the supervisory control of FMS in the framework of discrete event systems (DES). In particular, we consider the general case of an FMS, where different product types can share production components and production components can hold multiple products. We first point out that a suitable model for such production component needs to keep track of the product type and the order of products entering and leaving production components. Then, we develop a general met...
