Türkiye NATO’ya 60 yıl aşkın bir süredir üyedir. Bu sürede güvenliğin hedefleri ve araçlarındaki değişime koşut olarak Türkiye’nin NATO’nun kolektif güvenlik sistemine katkısı da nitelik ve nicelik olarak değişim göstermiştir. Türkiye’nin katkıları bağlamında süreklilik gösteren iki unsur göze çarpmaktadır. Bunlardan birisi coğrafi konumudur. NATO’nun tehdit algılarının yoğunlaştığı bölgelere komşuluğu Türkiye ittifak açısından emlak değerini artırmaktadır. Bir diğer konu ise Türkiye’nin diğer ...

Westphalian state system has been deeply affected from the civilianization of the cyber space. It is possible to see the traces of nuclear war and its competition in this new post-Cold War period. The contemporary threats against the cyber space and their vague boundaries could clearly be seen in the examples. Cyber attacks in this new security environment towards long lasting alliance NATO and its members are giving important clues for the future. In this article one discussed defensive measures ...

Soğuk Savaş dönemi boyunca Avrupa-Atlantik bölgesinde güvenlik ve savunma alanında NATO’nun sahip olduğu üstün konum, Avrupa’da kendi kendine yetebilen bir güvenlik mekanizmasının oluşumunu engellemiştir. Soğuk Savaş sonrasında dönüşmeye başlayan NATOAB ilişkilerinde, 1998 St. Malo Zirvesi’nin kazandırdığı ivmeyle temelleri atılan OGSP bir dönüm noktası teşkil etmiştir. Bu tarihten itibaren iki örgüt ilişkilerinde işbirliği fırsatlarının yanı sıra çatışma alanları da belirmeye başlamıştır. ...

Discoveries of significant natural gas reserves in the Eastern Mediterranean since 2010 have elevated the region’s geopolitical importance from being strictly based on security to one also based on energy and has thus drawn in outside powers that are eager to address their energy-supply security needs. The energy crises triggered first by the supply chain disruptions in 2021 and then the Russia-Ukraine War in 2022 have elevated the region’s importance as a potential energy supplier and transit hub ...

We consider the connectivity of autonomous mobile robots. The robots navigate using simple local steering rules without requiring explicit communication among themselves. We show that using only position information of neighbors the group connectivity can be sustained even in the case of bounded position measurement errors and the occlusion of robots by other robots in the group. In implementing the proposed scheme sub-optimal solutions are invoked to avoid an excessive computational burden. We ...

In this paper maximum likelihood (ML) estimator is proposed for the joint estimation of the direction of arrival (DOA) and range parameters of moving sources in the near-field of the antenna array. ML estimation algorithm is presented for deterministic signal model. Recursive form of the expectation maximization (REM) algoritm is suggested for the estimation of the near-field parameters because there is not closed form solutions for the maximum likelihood functions. Moreover simulation results of ...

The objective of reducing energy consumption at the sensor nodes has become a key research area for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in recent years. With the steady increase in the cost of energy the existing algorithms and protocols need to be redeveloped. In this paper an energy-efficient routing protocol which forms fixed clusters is proposed. The new cluster head (CH) selections are made based on selecting nearest nodes to the current CH. The proposed protocol includes two phases to achieve ...

Batili manadaki gercekci tiyatro eserlerinin ulkemizdeki ilk ornekleri Cumhuriyet yillarinda verilmistir. Yurtdisina egitim icin gonderilen aydinlar gercekci eserlerle orada karsilasmislar ve yurda donduklerinde Batidakine benzer eserler vermeye calismislardir. Necip Fazil Kisakurek de bu yazarlarimizdan birisidir. Onun idealist dunya gorusu Batili normlara bagli kalarak yazdigi gercekci eserlerini hem teknik hem icerik anlaminda etkilemistir. Batinin gercekcilik anlayisi ile Necip Fazil'in idealist ...

I treat despotism as a virtual concept. Thus it is necessary to expose its actualizations even when it appears as its opposite, refusing to recognize itself as despotism. I define despotism initially as arbitrary rule, in terms of a monstrous transgression of the law. But since the monster is grounded in its very formlessness, it cannot be demonstrated. However, one can always try to de-monstrate it through disagreements. In doing this, I deal with despotism not as a solipsistic undertaking but ...
