PHYS Seminar: “Electron Spin, Chiral Symmetry Breaking, and Life’s Homochirality”, Furkan Öztürk, 2:30PM September 26 2025
Furkan Öztürk California Institute of Technology Electron Spin, Chiral Symmetry Breaking, and Life’s Homochirality Abstract Electron spin couples strongly to molecular chirality through the recently discovered phenomenon of chiral-induced spin selectivity. As such, spin-polarized magnetic surfaces can function as robust chiral reagents and facilitate asymmetric processes. I will discuss recent […]

CS Seminar: “M.S. Thesis Presentation: Reducing Communication Volume Increase in Latency Efficient Store-and-Forward Scheme”, Salih Deniz Uzel, 4:45PM September 16 Eylül 2025
REDUCING COMMUNICATION VOLUME INCREASE IN LATENCY EFFICIENT STORE-AND-FORWARD SCHEME Salih Deniz Uzel Master Student (Supervisor: Prof.Dr.Cevdet Aykanat) Computer Engineering Department Bilkent University Abstract: Sparse matrix operations such as Sparse matrix-vector (SpMV) are latency bound applications where number of messages sent by processors dominate the overall communication overhead. In prior work, […]
CS Seminar: “Thesis Defense Presentation: Direct Volume Rendering of Tree-based Tetrahedral Adaptive Mesh Refinement Data”, Musa Ege Ünalan, 10:00AM September 12 2025 (EN)
Direct Volume Rendering of Tree-based Tetrahedral Adaptive Mesh Refinement Data Musa Ege Ünalan Master Student (Supervisor: Prof.Dr.Uğur Güdükbay) Computer Engineering Department Bilkent University Abstract: Ray-tracing-based direct volume rendering (DVR) techniques often use data representations such as regular grids, unstructured meshes, and adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) data. A less-explored option for […]
