Blog

Technical articles and historical engineering writing on software and systems engineering, real-time data processing, artificial intelligence, speech and signal processing, digital forensics, cybersecurity and algorithms.

This section is the long-running archive of my technical articles, engineering analyses and historical technical writing. Structured course notes are collected separately under Academy, while Blog publications place greater emphasis on measurements, failure boundaries, reproducibility and primary technical sources.

For systems and performance, High-Performance Java Data Systems, Computer Architecture and Red Hat Enterprise Linux System Administration provide broader reference paths. In speech and AI, Whisper Architecture and Capacity Engineering for Real-Time Speech Recognition deliberately separate model behavior from production-system behavior.

For digital forensics and security, Secure Software Engineering, the data-carving algorithm and my IBM POWER9 work connect implementation, verification and performance.

A newer article does not automatically replace an older one in this archive. Historical publication, later revision and current technical verification remain distinguishable pieces of provenance.

For a short definition or a direct path to a concept, the Technical Terms and Articles Index is usually the quickest entry point; the Computing Taxonomy shows how the larger subject areas connect. Work with public source repositories and DOI records is collected under Open-Source Research Software, while dates, verification and source handling are described in the Publication and Corrections Policy.

Turkish Deasciification in C#

Turkish deasciification restores ASCII-written characters by evaluating surrounding patterns rather than replacing letters in isolation; ambiguity is resolved through lexical and contextual rules.

Table-Based ASCII Conversion for Turkish Text

A table-based ASCII conversion maps Turkish characters to deterministic counterparts in one pass; Unicode coverage and irreversible information loss are part of the API contract.

Actuators

An actuator converts a controller command into physical motion, force, torque, pressure, or flow through an energy-conversion stage.

Measurement Systems

A measurement result depends on the complete chain—sensor, signal conditioning, sampling, calibration, timing, and uncertainty—not on the sensing element alone.

System Modeling and Simulation

An introduction to modeling and virtually executing dynamic systems before building a physical prototype.

Steganography: The Science of Hidden Information

Steganography across text, images, audio, and video, covering LSB embedding, transform domains, watermarking, steganalysis, capacity, imperceptibility, robustness, and the boundary with cryptography.

Mechanical Calculator: FACIT

My 2016 physical examination of the FACIT mechanical calculator used by my father shows how arithmetic is implemented with gears, shafts, counters, and carry mechanisms.

What Is Mechatronics?

An introduction to mechatronics as the integrated design of mechanical, electrical, electronic, computer and information technologies.
