Low Energy Fixed Clustering Algorithm (LEFCA) for Wireless Sensor Networks
(IEEE, 2015)
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have become an important part of our lives as they can be used in vast application areas from disaster relief to health care. As a consequence the life span and the energy consumption of a ...
Pilot Symbol Assisted Channel Estimation for 4x4 Space Time Block Coded Spatial Modulation Systems
(IEEE, 2015)
Recently spatial modulation (SM) and space-time block coding (STBC) are combined to take advantage of the benefits of both while avoiding their drawbacks for multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The pioneering ...
Identifying City Differences in Perceived Group Discrimination among Second-generation Turks and Moroccans in Belgium
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)
This study investigates the effects of city context on the levels and predictors of perceived group discrimination (GD) among Turkish and Moroccan second-generation immigrants in Belgium. Based on the Integration of the ...
A new China: Media portrayal of Chinese mega-cities
(Palgrave Macmillan Ltd., 2015)
During the last two decades China has started to leave its closed-door policies in the international arena behind and has shown signs of participating in the global economy. Politically and economically China has been ...
Flavonoids from Sideritis Species: Human Monoamine Oxidase (hMAO) Inhibitory Activities Molecular Docking Studies and Crystal Structure of Xanthomicrol
(MDPI, 2015)
The inhibitory effects of flavonoids on monoamine oxidases (MAOs) have attracted great interest since alterations in monoaminergic transmission are reported to be related to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's ...
Creating New Relationships Through Tourism: A Qualitative Analysis of Tourist Motivations of Older Individuals in Japan
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)

Amplitude and frequency modulations are still the most popular modulation techniques in data transmission at telecommunication systems such as radio and television broadcasting gsm etc. However the architectures of these ...
Fluorescence study of effect of particle size in PS latex/Al2O3 nanocomposite films
(MANEY PUBLISHING, 2015)
Steady state fluorescence and BioUV-Visible techniques were used to study film formation of polystyrene (PS) latex and Al2O3 composites depending on PS particles size and Al2O3 content. Two film series (SmPS/Al2O3 and ...
Dynamic Multi Threshold Priority Packet Scheduling Algorithms
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
Packet scheduling algorithms are developed in order to use shared transmission resources efficiently. Various application packets such as real and non-real time packets might have different QoS requirements and traditional ...
Toward a wider market definition in broadband: The case of Turkey
(Elsevier Science, 2015)
As broadband Internet transforms the way people connect with others the boundaries between different modes of communications become vague. In recent years the scope of voice and broadband markets has become a matter of ...
