I received my PhD degree in Computer Engineering from Boğaziçi University in 2001. After working as a post-doc for 18 months in the Broadband and Wireless Networking Lab at Georgia Institute of Technology, I was appointed as a visiting professor at Georgia Institute of Technology - Savannah Campus for two years. Currently, I am a professor in the Department of Computer Engineering at Boğaziçi University. I am a faculty member of the Computer Networks Research Lab (NetLab). I am one of the founders of the Telecommunications and Informatics Technologies Research Center (TETAM) in Kandilli Campus and the associated TAM project funded by the State Planning Organization of Turkey (DPT).(Unfortunately, TETAM Research Center and TAM Project have been hijacked by the Rector Prof. M. Naci İnci, so there is no active research pursued at that research center and project anymore.)

My research interests include wireless networks, with the emphasis on Beyond 5G & 6G Networks, as well as Molecular Communications and NanoNetworking. You may follow the "Research" link for my projects.

In terms of public service and intellectual duty, I am interested in the protection of personal data, cybersecurity, free and autonomous governance in the universities, free speech and free Internet, and rights to just and equal education. Previously, I served as a member of the national Internet Committee and the director of the Computer Center at Boğaziçi University.

Besides research, I am a proud member of the Boğazici Resistance, endeavoring for academic freedom at Boğaziçi University and other academic institutions. You may find more information about what has been going on at Boğaziçi University since January 2, 2021, at https://universitybogazici.wordpress.com/.

Highlights

You may access directly to our emulators (developed by my students) on several topics in Molecular Communications by following the links below. You may run the emulators with the default parameters, or you may modify the parameters as you wish.

• Emulator for Communication via Diffusion (CvD) & Brownian Motion (thanks to Sinan Narmanlı & Murat Güvenç)

• Emulator for Calcium Signaling (thanks to Sinan Narmanlı & Murat Güvenç)

• Emulator for Neuromuscular Junctions (NMJ) (thanks to Helin Ece Akgül)

• Emulator for Protrusions (thanks to Helin Ece Akgül)

Also, you may find a simple emulator that explains how instructions are executed in the CPU. This emulator was developed by a high school student, Oktay Çomu, from Robert College. It aims to give a broad sense of instruction execution; it does not show the exact instruction execution process. It starts with a default set of instructions loaded in the memory cells, but you may modify them by changing the content of the cells in the lower left.
