GridGIS portal development based on OGCE
(Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 2008)
GridGIS is the application of grid computing technology on GIS field, which aims to realize the spatial information sharing and cooperative service. However, current grid technologies are generally difficult to use, so the ...
Hue, saturation, lightness, and building exterior preference: An empirical study in Turkey comparing architects' and nonarchitects' evaluative and cognitive judgments
(Color Research and Application, 2008)
This study investigated architects' and nonarchitects' evaluative and cognitive judgments of color on building exteriors. Thirty architects and 30 high school teachers living in Izmir, Turkey participated in the study. The ...
Lagrangian formulation of electromagnetic fields in nondispersive medium by means of the extended Euler-Lagrange differential equation
(International Journal of Engineering Science, 2008)
This work is concerned with the Lagrangian formulation of electromagnetic fields. Here, the extended Euler-Lagrange differential equation for continuous, nondispersive media is employed. The Lagrangian density for ...
Financial performance impacts of Corporate Entrepreneurship in Emerging markets: A case of Turkey
(European Journal of Economics, Finance and Administrative Sciences, 2008)
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of four sub-dimensions of corporate entrepreneurship (hereafter CE) on firms' financial performance in Turkey. The research of this study has been conducted from 2032 respondents ...
Integration of GIS: A showcase study on GML based WebGIS
(Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 2008)
The growth of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) emerges as analytical decision-making tools utilizing highly specialized geographic data. However, a simple system still does not exist for the integration/sharing ...
Detection of hidden hostile/terrorist groups in harsh territories by using animals as mobile biological sensors
(Sensors, 2008)
Terrorism is the greatest threat to national security and cannot be defeated by conventional military force alone. In critical areas such as Iraq, Afghanistan and Turkey, regular forces cannot reach these hostile/terrorist ...
Hypoglycemic effect of Lentinus strigosus (Schwein.) Fr. crude exopolysaccharide in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
(Journal of Medicinal Food, 2008)
This study reports the hypoglycemic effects of the crude exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced from submerged mycelial culture of Lentinus strigosus (Schwein.) Fr. (Family Polyporaceae) in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic ...
On the nearest parametric approximation of a fuzzy number
(Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 2008)
Many nearest parametric approximation methods of fuzzy sets are proposed in the literature. It is clear that the specific approximations may lead to the loss of information about fuzziness. To overcome this problem, most ...
Negotiators' profit predicted by cognitive reappraisal, suppression of emotions, misrepresentation of information, and tolerance of ambiguity
(Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2008)
This study examined the relationship between negative emotions and variables that affect negotiators' profit. Based on a simulated negotiation, this study induced emotions by providing negative feedback on how negotiating ...
Applications of parametric spectral estimation methods on detection of power system harmonics
(Electric Power Systems Research, 2008)
Harmonics are the major power quality problems in industrial and commercial power systems. Several methods for detection of power system harmonics have been investigated by engineers due to increasing harmonic pollution. ...
