Obama and the Middle East, round two
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(2013)After years of diplomatic inertia, the seemingly endless Palestinian-Israeli "peace process" was given a new lease on life by the Obama Administration in the summer of 2013. Despite Washington's expressed desire during Obama's first term to "pivot" U.S. foreign policy toward Asia, the revived peace process, along with the Syrian crisis, Iran, and the "Arab Spring" combined to keep Washington focused on its longstanding traditional concerns in the Middle East. Unlike earlier periods, however, ...

OBJECTIVE FACTOR OF FURTUM: CONTRECTATIO
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Türkiye Adalet Akademisi, 2017)The first element of furtum was contrectatio; the handling of an object against the will of the owner (invito domino) or the person who had a lawful interest in such object. Examples of contrectatio included the removal of a thing, embezzlement, receiving stolen goods, disposing of a pledged thing without being authorized to do so, accepting an object that the owner had handed over by mistake, and hiding an escaped slave. Furthermore, a pledgee or depositee who made use of the pledged ...

Observing art workshops in İstanbul Modern Museum as an informal learning environment for children
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Kadir Has University, 2017)Museums do not only preserve artifacts based on historical events or exhibit unique artworks that is forbidden to touch, but also provide educational settings that are regarded as informal learning environments. Since the educational opportunities have become prominent, museums started to consider pre-school and school-age children. Although "education" is generally associated with formal learning, education programs are not only limited to school-based subjects. While children can learn new things ...

Obstrüktif uyku apne sendromu'unda NCPAP tedavisine uyuma görsel ağırlıklı eğitimin katkısı
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(2001)Obstrüktif uyku apne sendromu tedavisinde cerrahi tedavi ile birlikte en sık kullanılan yöntem sürekli pozitif havayolu basıncı (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure: CPAP) ile yapılan tedavidir. CPAP cihazının tedavi seçeneği olarak hasta tarafından kabul edilmesi, gündüz aşırı uyku hali, hastalığın şiddeti, daha önce geçirilmiş cerrahi operasyon gibi birçok farklı nedene bağlıdır. Çalışmamızda, tedavinin kabulünü arttırmak açısından görsel ağırlıklı eğitimin etkileri 196 hasta üzerinde araştırıldı. ...

Of Celebrities and Landmarks: Space, State and the Making of "Cosmopolitan" Turkey
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017)This paper analyses the (re)production of Turkey's liminal-hybrid representations through a combination of sports and music celebrity interventions on a specific landmark. It shows that a country's representations can be reinforced and reaffirmed with the help of celebrities performing their talent on landmarks such as the Bosphorus Bridge and (in some cases) placing another landmark - Ortakoy Mosque - in the backdrop. Combined with the role of celebrities, these two landmarks that have come to ...

OFDM with transmit and receive antenna selection based on subcarrier groups
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IEEE, 2012)In this paper the performance of coded OFDM transmission over multiple antennas is explored when joint transmit and receive antenna selection is employed. The channel is assumed as Rayleigh frequency selective fading channel and only receiver is assumed to have perfect channel state information (CSI). The performance of MIMO OFDM system using pragmatic coding techniques such as convolutional coding (CC) and space-time block coding (STBC) with antenna selection based on subcarrier groups and other ...

Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting with use of the octopus 2 stabilization system
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(2000)Background: The treatment of coronary artery disease has evolved rapidly over the last two decades. The gold standard of surgical revascularization, the on-pump coronary artery bypass graft, has been challenged by the development of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. Our experience with the alternative of the off-pump ("beating heart") coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) technique during a period of 18 months suggests that OPCAB avoids the complications of cardiopulmonary bypass and offers ...

Okul öncesi çocuklarda dış mekân erişiminin sınıf içi davranışlara etkileri üzerine bir vaka çalışması
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Kadir Has University, 2016)Çocuklarda 0-6 yaş aralığı öğrenme ve gelişimin en hızlı oluştuğu dönemdir. Temel beceri ve özelliklerin büyük bir bölümü bu yaşlarda kazanılmaktadır. Bu nedenle okul öncesi eğitim çocukların ileriki hayatlarını da şekillendirmektedir. Doğru ve kaliteli eğitimin sadece sınıf içinde olmadığı, diğer eğitim bileşenleri ile desteklenmesi gerektiği bilinmektedir. Bunların başında mekân özellikleri ve aktiviteler gelmektedir. Eğitim yapılarında hem iç mekân hem de dış mekân bir bütün olarak görülmektedir. ...

On (mis-)perception of probabilities in first-price sealed-bid auctions
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Economics Bulletin, 2019)We study a two-stage probability weighting model [see Tversky and Fox 1995] in a first-price sealed-bid auction. We present the unique symmetric equilibrium and provide some experimental support for our model.

On channel estimation for spatial modulated systems over time-varying channels
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2015)Spatial Modulation (SM) has been proposed recently for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to cope with the interchannel interference and to reduce the detection complexity as compared to the conventional MIMO systems. In SM system the data symbols are transmitted by a randomly selected active antenna of a MIMO transmitter to the receiver through a wireless channel. The information is carried both by the data symbol from any signal constellation such as M-ary phase shift keying (M-PSK) ...

On Channel Estimation in DC Biased Optical OFDM Systems Over VLC Channels
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IEEE Computer Society, 2016)Visible Light Communication(VLC) has been considered as a potential access option for 5G wireless systems to solve performance limitation due to bandwidth shortage at radio frequency (RF) band. In (VLC) system illumination infrastructure has dual usage at the same time namely illumination and wireless data transmission. DC Biased optical (DCO)-OFDM has been proposed for VLC systems to provide optically power efficient solution and easy implementation. Wireless communication systems generally require ...

On list k-coloring convex bipartite graphs
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Springer Nature, 2021)List k-Coloring (Lik-Col) is the decision problem asking if a given graph admits a proper coloring compatible with a given list assignment to its vertices with colors in {1, 2, …, k}. The problem is known to be NP-hard even for k = 3 within the class of 3-regular planar bipartite graphs and for k = 4 within the class of chordal bipartite graphs. In 2015 Huang, Johnson and Paulusma asked for the complexity of Li 3-Col in the class of chordal bipartite graphs. In this paper, we give a partial answer ...

On preserving connectivity of autonomous mobile robots
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IEEE, 2009)The connectivity of the autonomous mobile robots is considered in this paper. The group navigation is provided using simple local steering rules and without any explicit communication. Sub-optimal solutions are invoked to avoid computational cost. We show that the connectivity of the group is preserved during the whole motion in spite of bounded measurement errors on angles and distances. Some special cases of group topology are also discussed.

On sectional curvatures of a Weyl manifold
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(2006)In this paper it is proved that if at each point of a Weyl manifold the sectional curvature is independent of the plane chosen then the Weyl manifold is locally conformal to an Einstein manifold and that the scalar curvature of the Weyl manifold is prolonged covariant constant.
