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: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Green Information Technology (git) and Gender Diversity(Gh Asachi Technical Univ Iasi, 2014) Mishra, Alok; Akman, IbrahimOver the past few years, green computing has received an increasing amount of attention since it is considered as one of the critical factors for protecting the environment. This study investigates gender diversity in terms of applying Green Information Technology (GIT) based on the differences between significance tests result for males and females. For this purpose, a survey was conducted among IT professionals from public and private sector organizations since GIT is a new concept and these professionals are expected to have more awareness on this issue. Six factors were included in the analyses. Interestingly, the results indicate that gender diversity exists only when individuals intend to purchase new hardware and when considering the type of IT usage.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 28Green Information Technology Practices Among It Professionals: Theory of Planned Behavior Perspective(Politechnika Lubelska, 2014) Akman, Ibrahim; Akman, Kamil İbrahim; Mishra, Alok; Mıshra, Alok; Akman, Kamil İbrahim; Mıshra, Alok; Software Engineering; Software Engineering; Computer Engineering; Computer Engineering; Software Engineering; Computer EngineeringAccording to the existing literature, the determinants of environmental attitudes and behavior are important. In this paper impact of information technology adoption environment has been investigated. Some of the studies have successfully utilized Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) for adoption behavior. This study proposed TPB to explain IT professionals' intentions for Green Information Technology (GIT) practices. For this purpose, a survey was conducted among IT professionals from public and private sector organizations. Core factors of TPB were included in the analysis. Overall, results revealed that the TPB model explains behavioral intent, and all four core constructs were significant predictors of the intent. Limitations of the study, and implications for theory are also discussed.
