Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Electron-Lattice Interaction Scattering Mobility in Tl2ingase4< Single Crystals(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2008) Qasrawi, A. F.; Gasanly, N. M.In this work, the dark electrical resistivity, charge carrier density and Hall mobility of Tl(2)InGaSe(4) single crystal have been recorded and analyzed to investigate the dominant scattering mechanism in the crystal. The data analyses have shown that this crystal exhibits an extrinsic n-type conduction. The temperature-dependent dark electrical resistivity analysis reflected the existence of two energy levels as 0.396 and 0.512 eV, being dominant above and below 260 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the carrier density was analyzed by using the single-donor-single-acceptor model. The latter analysis has shown that the above maintained 0.512 eV energy level is a donor impurity level. The compensation ratio for this crystal is determined as 0.96. The Hall mobility of Tl(2)InGaSe(4) is found to be limited by the scattering of electron-acoustic phonon interactions. The calculated theoretical acoustic phonon scattering mobility agrees with the experimental one under the condition that the acoustic deformation potential is 12.5 eV.Conference Object Embryo Spatial Model Reconstruction(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2020) Dirvanauskas, Darius; Maskeliunas, Rytis; Raudonis, Vidas; Misra, SanjayTime lapse microscopy offered new solutions to study embryo development process. It allows embryologist to monitor embryo growth in real time and evaluate them without interfering into their growth environment. Embryo evaluation during growth process is one of the key criteria in embryo selection for fertilization. Live embryo monitoring is time consuming and new tools are offered to automate part of process. Our proposed algorithm gives new possibilities for embryo monitoring. It uses embryo images which are taken from different embryo layers, extracts embryo cell features and returns metrical evaluation to compare different embryos. High number of extracted features shows embryo fragmentation. Other tool whichwe present is spatial embryo model. Features extracted from embryo layers are combined together to spatial model. It allows embryologist to examine embryo model and compare different layers in one space. The obtained spatial embryo model will be later used to develop new algorithms for embryo analysis tasks.Article Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 52Discussion on Generalized-(αψ, Βφ)-Contractive Mappings Via Generalized Altering Distance Function and Related Fixed Point Theorems(Hindawi Ltd, 2014) Berzig, Maher; Karapinar, Erdal; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-FranciscoWe extend the notion of (alpha psi, beta phi)-contractive mapping, a very recent concept by Berzig and Karapinar. This allows us to consider contractive conditions that generalize a wide range of nonexpansive mappings in the setting of metric spaces provided with binary relations that are not necessarily neither partial orders nor preorders. Thus, using this kind of contractive mappings, we show some related fixed point theorems that improve some well known recent results and can be applied in a variety of contexts.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 19Periodic Points of Weaker Meir-Keeler Contractive Mappings on Generalized Quasimetric Spaces(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014) Lin, Ing-Jer; Chen, Chi-Ming; Karapinar, ErdalBy using the weaker Meir-Keeler function phi and the triangular alpha-admissible mapping alpha, we introduce the notion of (alpha - phi)-weaker Meir-Keeler contractive mappings and prove a theorem which assures the existence of a periodic point for these mappings on generalized quasimetric spaces.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 21Research Trends in Management Issues of Global Software Development: Evaluating the Past To Envision the Future(Taylor & Francis inc, 2011) Mishra, Deepti; Mishra, AlokThis paper presents research trends in management issues (project management, process management, knowledge management, requirements management, configuration management, risk management, quality management) of distributed/global information system development. The main objective is to highlight the current research and practice direction in these areas. The results are based on peer-reviewed conference papers/journal articles, published between 2000 and early 2011. The analysis revealed that most research has been done in project management, process management, knowledge management and requirements management areas while configuration, risk, and quality management issues could get only limited attention in global/distributed information system development. This indicates the need for future research (quantitative and qualitative) in these areas.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Electrochemical Polymerization of Para-Substituted Haloanilines(Taylor & Francis inc, 2006) Cihaner, A; Önal, AMPolyhaloanilines: poly(4-fluoroaniline) (P4FAN), poly(4-chloroaniline) (P4CAN), and poly(4-bromoaniline) (P4BAN), are synthesized from para-substituted haloaniline monomers; 4-fluoroaniline (4FAN), 4-chloroaniline (4CAN), and 4-bromoaniline (4BAN), respectively, via constant potential electrolysis (CPE) in acetonitrile-water mixture (1:1 v/v) with NaClO4 as supporting electrolyte. Prior to CPE, electrochemical behavior of the monomers were investigated in organic medium utilizing cyclic voltammetry (CV). The course of CPE was monitored using in-situ UV-VIS spectroscopic technique. Characterization of polymer products have been carried out using FT-IR and NMR spectroscopic techniques and thermal behaviors were studied using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Polyhaloanilines synthesized by electrochemical oxidation were doped using iodine and the change in the paramagnetic behavior was monitored by ESR, UV-VIS, and FT-IR.Conference Object A Model for Measuring Cognitive Complexity of Software(Springer Verlag, 2008) Misra,S.; Akman,I.This paper proposes a model for calculating cognitive complexity of a code. This model considers all major factors responsible for (cognitive) complexity. The practical applicability of the measure is evaluated through experimentation, test cases and comparative study. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Article Citation - WoS: 59Citation - Scopus: 68Generalized (c)-conditions and Related Fixed Point Theorems(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2011) Karapinar, Erdal; Tas, Kenan; Karapnar, ErdalIn this manuscript, the notion of C-condition [K. Suzuki, Fixed point theorems and convergence theorems for some generalized nonexpansive mappings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 340 (2008) 1088-1095] is generalized. Some new fixed point theorems are obtained. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

Today, the retention of skilled IT (information technology) personnel is a major issue for employers and recruiters as well, since IT career abandonment is a common practice and means not only the loss of personnel, knowledge, and skills, but also the loss of business opportunities. This article seeks to discover the main motivations young practitioners abandon the software career. To achieve this objective, two studies were conducted. The first study was qualitative (performed through semistructured interviews) and intended to discover the main variables affecting software career abandonment. The second study was quantitative, consisting of a Web-based survey developed from the output of the first study and administered to a sample of 148 IT practitioners. Results show that work-related, psychological, and emotional variable are the most relevant group of variables explaining IT career abandonment. More specifically, the three most important variables that motivate employees to abandon the career are effort-reward imbalance, perceived workload, and emotional exhaustion. In contrast, variables such as politics and infighting, uncool work, and insufficient resources influence to a lesser extent the decision to leave the career.

Since shadow regions are illuminated only by scattered light, true spectral properties of the objects are not observed in such regions. Therefore, many object classification and change detection problems utilize shadow detection as a preprocessing step. Besides, shadows are useful for obtaining 3D information of the objects such as estimating the height of buildings. With pervasiveness of remote sensing images, shadow detection is ever more important. This study aims to develop a shadow detection method on multispectral images based on the transformation of C-1 C-2 C-3 space and contribution of NIR bands. The proposed method is tested on Worldview-2 images covering Ankara, Turkey at different times. The new index is used on these 8-band multispectral images with two NIR bands. The method is compared with methods in the literature.
