The role of climate: implications for service employee engagement and customer service performance
(Springer, 2017)
This research attempts to challenge the resource-engagement and engagement-performance linkage of the job demands-resources model by testing these links under the moderating role of two climates: performance-focused and ...
New azole derivatives showing antimicrobial effects and their mechanism of antifungal activity by molecular modeling studies
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2017)
Azole antifungals are potent inhibitors of fungal lanosterol 14 alpha demethylase (CYP51) and have been used for eradication of systemic candidiasis clinically. Herein we report the design synthesis and biological evaluation ...
Beyond Muslim identity: Opinion-based groups in the Gezi Park protest
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2017)
Media depicted Turkish Gezi Park protests as a clash between secularists and Islamists within a majority-Muslim country. Extending a social identity approach to protests this study aims (a) to distinguish the protest ...
Forecasting electricity demand for Turkey: Modeling periodic variations and demand segregation
(Elsevier, 2017)
In deregulated electricity markets the independent system operator (ISO) oversees the power system and manages the supply and demand balancing process. In a typical day the ISO announces the electricity demand forecast for ...
Pilot Symbol Aided Channel Estimation for Spatial Modulation-OFDM Systems and its Performance Analysis with Different Types of Interpolations
(Springer, 2017)
Spatial modulation orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (SM-OFDM) system has been recently proposed as an alternative for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-OFDM systems to increase spectral efficiency by keeping ...
A Mobile Channel Model for VLC and Application to Adaptive System Design
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2017)
In this letter we propose a realistic channel model for visible light communication (VLC) assuming a mobile user. Based on non-sequential ray tracing we first obtain channel impulse responses for each point over the user ...
Jonson and the alchemical economy of desire: creation defacement and castration in the 'Alchemist'
(Univ Paul Valery, 2002)
Behind images of Ben Jonson as the virtuous centred stoic writer lie the traces of a morbid fear concerning the fate of the poet's creation and name. The Jonsonian oeuvre reveals a fear of the ultimate defacement and ...
Fault-tolerant training of neural networks in the presence of MOS transistor mismatches
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2001)
Analog techniques are desirable for hardware implementation of neural networks due to their numerous advantages such as small size low power and high speed. However these advantages are often offset by the difficulty in ...
Improvement of indoor positioning accuracy of ultra-wide band sensors by using big bang-big crunch optimization method
(Pamukkale Univ, 2018)
Ultra-wide Band technology is an emerging technology that offers successful solutions in many indoor positioning systems and performs better than other methods. In this study an indoor positioning system using Ultra-wide ...
Greek Foreign Policy in Defence of the National Interest: Teetering between Exceptionalism and Integration
(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği, 2018)
This paper aims to explain how crisis-ridden Greece defines and defends its national interest. The constellation of the twin economic and migration crises coupled with the increasingly transactional nature of the global ...
