Özet: Compact binaries with white dwarf (WD) primaries, constitute laboratories to study accretion flows, gas dynamics, outflows, transient outbursts, and explosive nuclear burning under a variety of astrophysical plasma conditions in relation with LMXBs and AGNs.  Recent space- and ground-based spectral and timing studies, along with recent surveys indicate that we still have observational and theoretical complexities yet to answer. I will concentrate on nonmagnetic Cataclysmic Variables discussing issues on evolutionary aspects, dwarf nova outburst, the nova-like systems and the optically thick-thin disk transition conditions, and the disk wind models. I will elaborate on how accretion phase may shape the thermonuclear eruptions on the surface of WD binaries and Nova evolution. Also, I will discuss how flickering variability studies from optical to X-rays can be probes to determine accretion history.
