Nov 1997-Sep 1999
Software Engineer at the PACS project
at Bilkent University EE Department.
Responsible for implementation of the DICOM 3.0 standard for the
Picture Archiving and Communications System that was being
developed.The standard is published by NEMA, and it describes how
digital imaging and communications are performed in an open system
of medical applications such as modalities (Computed Tomography,
etc.), archives, viewing workstations, printers, and other possible
applications.
A comprehensive DICOM 3.0 implementation which has passed publicly
available test suites was achieved.
Designed and programmed a portable object oriented framework for
client and server sides of DICOM application protocols.
Interpreted a complex international standard and built a
compliant software.
Developed a compiler to translate standard documents to C++ code
using GNU bison/flex.
Efficient Parallel Frequency Mining Based On a
Novel Top-Down Partitioning Scheme, Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Cevdet Aykanat
A new family of parallel frequency mining algorithms based on a novel
transaction set partitioning scheme that can be used to divide the
frequency mining task in a top-down fashion. Complete implementation
on a Beowulf system exhibits favorable performance.
