Hello everyone,
As we mentioned in our project presentation I am responsible for extracting useful data from external sources, so I wrote 5 java classes extracting the relevant data from tuik.gov.tr . In initial test conditions, every class contained a main function in it, now every class contains a static extract() method in it. These methods returns all useful data sets as vectors. I used classes and its properties as a mirror of the db tables I took from Erdem. I am planning to write java classes to extract other related pages in the next week. In the meantime, I will work on visualization patterns and plotting techniques as well.

hi there,
as everybody knows im responsible for presentation part of our project. in other words, the last of the three modules -presentation module- is being done by me. im working on java plaftorm and using netbeans ide. last week i've constructed some kinds of charts. some of them are : pie chart, bar graph3d, area chart and ring chart. in this week's meeting i will show some of them. currently they are working on dynamic data stored in arrays. in the next steps i will run charts with the data stored in database. as a final step i will add some buttons to our general gui and users will be able to view the charts by just clicking the button. with the addition of this feature presentation module will be finished. i plan to finish the module in 2 or three weeks.

Hi,
Last week, I desingen the database schema of the tourism sector paert of the project. I scanned the TUIK website and extracted some useful data for our project. I also created the create table queries. In the application, we plan to let the user to choose database tables for data mining. Next week, I plan to write tricky and informative select queries for created tables. I am also planning to do UI for the project. See u next week...

I've made research about html parsing this week. This part of the project probably will be harder to implement than what we've thought before. We're mostly concerned with the TUIK website.

Hi all,
This week I continued to research on html parsing. I found a governmental web site to extract some currency values. It is more reliable and its content is so easy to parse:
http://www.tcmb.gov.tr/kurlar/today.html
Also, I am still researching on how to make use of web services of tuik web site. I am looking for useful data to be extracted from there.

this week i have studied on graphics alternatives for our project. we can categorize alternatives into two groups : server side solutions and client side solutions. actually, server side solutions are richer than client side solutions but it is slower when compared to former one. the reason for the slowness is the turnaround -between server and client- time for each request. the drawback of client side solutions is its development difficulties. for example javascript is a very extensive language in which almost every graphics issue can be performed. however, it is hard to develop javascript code because there is no intellisense support for it. besides, since it is very large it is hard to find libraries.
when we consider all the criterion above, though its fallacies, we will prefer client side solution.

Hi,
This week I worked for extracting an html for a given URL, and parsing this html code. Firstly, I tried to extract dollar/TL rate from a web source named "http://kur.doviz.com". I succeeded extracting, but I couldt do the parsing job because of an exception about Turkish characters. There are two ways of doing this, first one is supporting for Turkish characters, second one is extracting dolar from other web source. I will try the first one until this weekend, but also I need some know-how information about this and so time. Lastly, I will try to research for some visual facilities such as Javascript and its chart libraries.

Hi,
Last week, we submitted initial design report. For this term we will also make a presentation about our project and submit the detailed design report. I were dealing with data mining part, but after initial design report it became obvious that we will not need too much data mining. We may just use few basic data mining algorithms and thats all. Then I decided to focus on presentation layer of the project. When we look at the people profile at SMEs at Turkey, we can see that most of them even does not know to use basic Internet browser. So, we must present the reports and charts in user-friendly way. Just like the popular books like "bla bla for Dummies", we will design the presentation layer like "UI for Dummies". Actually, it will ease our work since the technical details will very few. I am very curious about the last product we will get by June. See you next week...

Hi all,
This week, i started to think on detailed design report and started to reseach about this. We will some additions and a bit correction on idr. After these operations, our last design report will be ready i think. While designing, i think we must start to consider tecnical issues that is how we will implement our design i.e. bottlenecks, challenges, scalibility and platform issues.

This week, in order not to have any problems because of the tight schedule we have in the beginning of January I started to think about and sketch some outline about the presentation that we will give on January 4th. By attending the first presentations of our classmates and listening the feedback from our instructors I have a better idea about how our presentation should look like and how it shouldn't look like.

Hi all,
This week i have thought on architectural design and database design issues. We have completed our ER diagram with Abdullah.
As architectural design, we have decided to imlement famous MVC (model-view-controller) architecture in our project. Our architecture simply consists of three packages, View package, Controller package, Model package. View package is responsible for how data is presented to the end user. Controller package is responsible for actual business logic and processing of data. Data concentrating related sub-packages and data mining related sub-packages are all in this package. Model package is responsible for database actions.

I concentrated on how to write the initial design report that is due this Friday and discussed the matter with my groupmates. I have worked on the data flow diagram and still working on it. Since we are planning to have a generic framework business intelligence software, specifying the data, control or function elements of our project is not very easy. I think we are handling the situation with more attention than we did in the requirement analysis report and expect that this report will be a major guideline for the second semester.

this week me and hakkı continued to study on our initial design report. we have prepared an er diagram, constructed class diagrams,tables, software and graphical user interfaces. we have also studied on architectural design and decided to use mvc - model view controller- in our project. there are some packages in our project and they will be seen in our initial design report.
for gui part, i have searched on the net for good design tricks and come up with some nice rules of thumb. some of them are : the colors used, number of clicks to reach a content, use of flash and use of frames in a page. since our implementation will be a web based solution, our gui is like a web site. the details will be seen soon.

this week i have mainly focused on initial design report. for the report, we have made a job assignement for each group member. my job is preparing user interfaces and i have been studying on it since last week. im using visual studio and netbeans for interface designing. in each of them, i have constructed a web application and adding the main features of the system such as menus, charts, graphics.
nice and user friendly interface design is an important part of software projects. it is more important in our project because our customer profile necessitates simple and easy to use design. so im trying to produce some nice applications. hope to succeed.

Hi all,
I researched about our "database design" in this week. Cemil and me, we have made some drafts about database design issues. Some points in our design needed to be clarified, so we will show our drafts at tomorrow meeting.
Also, i made some screenshots about user interface. These are some graphics and charts. These screenshots will be used in Initial Design Report. see you on meeting.

hi,
This week I continued my studies on both data mining and JDM. I especially focus on the beneficial features of JDM api and I think about to use these features in our project. On the other hand, we should submit the Initial Design Report until 10 december. Database design constitutes very important part at our ultimate goal in the project. The database we construct should be consistent with the data obtained at the end of the data mining phase. So, database design and selection of data mining algorithms and related should be consistent so that we can query the database accordingly. Since I have a very busy week, I were not able to thşnk about database design actually. Next week, while writing the initial design report, I am planning to finalize the selection of data mining algorithms and the associated database design. See you..

Hi all,
This week, i researched about initial design issues a bit. i looked at the examples of BI applications, i examined snapshots, tutorials and videos about these applications. some pictures i downloaded have helped me, especially where we will use which visual pattern and how we will use. as everyone knows, easiness of use of a program is the most important part of a software.
