Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 15Lossless Text Compression Technique Using Syllable Based Morphology(Zarka Private Univ, 2011) Akman, Ibrahim; Bayindir, Hakan; Ozleme, Serkan; Akin, Zehra; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringIn this paper, we present a new lossless text compression technique which utilizes syllable-based morphology of multi-syllabic languages. The proposed algorithm is designed to partition words into its syllables and then to produce their shorter bit representations for compression. The method has six main components namely source file, filtering unit, syllable unit, compression unit, dictionary file and target file. The number of bits in coding syllables depends on the number of entries in the dictionary file. The proposed algorithm is implemented and tested using 20 different texts of different lengths collected from different fields. The results indicated a compression of up to 43%.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 10Unified complexity measure: a measure of complexity(Natl Acad Sciences india, 2010) Misra, Sanjay; Akman, Ibrahim; Computer EngineeringThis paper proposes a new complexity metric. The proposed metric is a unified complexity measure (UCM) and includes all major factors responsible for the complexity of a program including cognitive aspects. The applicability of the measure is evaluated through empirical, theoretical and practical validation processes. The test cases and comparative study prove its soundness and robustness.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 14An Evaluation of Ict Infrastructure and Application in Nigeria Universities(Budapest Tech, 2014) Egoeze, Fidelis; Misra, Sanjay; Akman, Ibrahim; Colomo-Palacios, Ricardo; Computer EngineeringThe need for adequate ICT infrastructure/facility in higher education institutions cannot be overemphasized, even as availability and utilization of these facilities are at times the indices for rating universities. In this descriptive survey study, ICT infrastructure and the extent of usage in Nigeria universities were investigated. Questionnaire was the instrument used for gathering information and based on related literature. A total of 452 respondents comprised of students, lecturers and administrators randomly selected from a total of 15 universities from different regions of Nigeria participated. Data collected were analyzed using mean statistic analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA).Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3The Impact of Cognitive and Socio-Demographic Factors at Meetings During Software Development Process(Univ Osijek, Tech Fac, 2011) Akman, Ibrahim; Misra, Sanjay; Altindag, Tugba; Computer EngineeringMost of the important decisions are taken at team meetings during software development process (SDP) and the way of thinking of project leader plays an important role in achieving quality objectives at these team meetings. Considering this important issue, this paper investigates the impact of cognitive and socio-demographic factors on manager's simple thinking style towards improving the quality of team meetings in SDP. We have performed experimentations among Information and Communication Technologies' (ICT) senior professionals and managers from government and private sector organizations for this purpose. The hypotheses have been developed under different empirical categories and then statistical analysis techniques have been used to draw inferences. The results indicate that "type of team meetings", "project leader's cognitive characteristics" and "adoption of a cognitive model at team meetings" have statistically significant impact on manager's simple thinking in terms of improving productivity and contribution of team meetings.
