These include software tools for 3D video compression and streaming, 3D video players, and their interfaces. Other types of tools widely used in research studies and development of new networking solutions, such as network simulators, emulators, testbeds, and network analysis tools are also covered. In addition, several 3D video evaluation tools, which have been specifically designed for testing and evaluation of 3D video sequences subject to network impairments, are further described. The chapter also presents several examples of recent works that have been carried out based on one or more simulation, emulation, test, and/or evaluation tools in research studies or innovative solutions for relevant problems affecting 3D multimedia delivery.Publication Metadata only A finite-volume front-tracking method for computations of multiphase flows in complex geometries(Frontiers, 2005) N/A; Department of Mechanical Engineering; Muradoğlu, Metin; Faculty Member; Department of Mechanical Engineering; College of Engineering; 46561A finite-volume/front-tracking (FV/FT) method is developed for computations of multiphase flows in complex geometries. The front-tracking methodology is combined with a dual time-stepping based FV method. The interface between phases is represented by connected Lagrangian marker points. An efficient algorithm is developed to keep track of the marker points in curvilinear grids. The method is implemented to solve two-dimensional (plane or axisymmetric) dispersed multiphase flows and is validated for the motion of buoyancy-driven drops in a periodically constricted tube with cases where drop breakup occurs.Publication Metadata only A look into the future: how digital tools may advance language development(Taylor and Francis, 2020) Department of Psychology; Department of Psychology; Department of Psychology; Küntay, Aylin C.; Göksun, Tilbe; Oranç, Cansu; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Researcher; Department of Psychology; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 178879; 47278; N/AN/APublication Metadata only A metal workshop? Multi-hollow anvils at Taştepe obası in southeastern Konya(Brill, 2017) N/A; Department of Archeology and History of Art; Maner, Çiğdem; Faculty Member; Department of Archeology and History of Art; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 104427During the first campaign of the Konya Ereğli Survey Project (keyar) in 2013, c. 12 km north of the Bolkar Mountains, a site called Taştepe Obası just north of the village of Çayhan was surveyed. In between domestic houses and in the field of Taştepe Obası, four large stones with man-made small circular depressions were discovered. These rocks, known as multi-hollow anvils or multi-hollow mortars, are important indications that metal ores were dressed here. The proximity to the metal-rich Bolkar Mountains might indicate the presence of a metal workshop. Very similar multi-hollow anvils have been discovered in the vicinity of the Kestel mine, where they were used for ore dressing of cassiterite, the first stage in the preparation of the ore for the smelting process. This article will introduce the site of Taştepe Obası and consider it in the context of ancient metal workshops in the region and the mining activities in the Bolkar Mountains.Publication Metadata only A multiobjective solution method for radiation treatment planning(Springer, 2018) Kirlik, Gokhan; Sayin, Serpil; Zhang, Hao Howard; Department of Business Administration; Sayın, Serpil; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 6755The challenge in radiation treatment planning (RTP) is to ensure delivery of a prescription dose to the tumor while limiting the normal tissue toxicity. One way of dealing with this trade off is to use multiobjective optimization which no longer possesses a unique optimal objective function value. In multiobjective optimization, efficient solutions are used instead of the optimal solution which have the property that no improvement in any objective is possible without sacrificing in at least one other objective. In this study, we use achievement scalarization to obtain efficient solutions, i.e. treatment plans which are efficient, for the RTP. We adapt the parameters of the achievement scalarization to address a solution in a rectangle that is defined by the bounds on the objective functions. For a given set of bounds on each structure of the treatment volume, the formulation is able to attain a treatment plan that targets the bounds. We tested our approach on 10 locally advanced head-and-neck cancer cases. All of the cases include three tumor volumes, primary tumor, high-risk nodal volume, low-risk nodal volume, and five organs-at-risk (OAR), left and parotids, spinal cord, brain stem, oral cavity. We compare the proposed method with multiobjective solution algorithm from the literature and clinical plans. While satisfying the coverage of the target volumes, the proposed algorithm was able to improve the OAR sparing as much as 35%.Publication Metadata only A new pilgrimage site at late antique Ephesus transfer of religious ideas in Western Asia Minor(Brill, 2020) N/A; Sewing, Katinka; Researcher; N/A; Koç University Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations (ANAMED) / Anadolu Medeniyetleri Araştırma Merkezi (ANAMED); N/AN/APublication Metadata only A newly read inscription on the walls of Antalya, Turkey(Brill, 2008) N/A; Redford, Scott; Researcher; Koç University Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations (ANAMED) / Anadolu Medeniyetleri Araştırma Merkezi (ANAMED); N/A; N/AN/APublication Metadata only A research agenda for the dissociative disorders field(Taylor and Francis, 2022) Şar, Vedat; Faculty Member; Other; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; 8542; N/AN/APublication Metadata only A sense of things to come: future research directions in sensory marketing(Taylor and Francis, 2011) Elder, Ryan S.; Barger, Victor; Caldara, Cindy; Chun, Hae Eun; Lee, Chan Jean; Mohr, Gina S.; Stamatogiannakis, Antonios Adoni; Department of Business Administration; Aydınoğlu, Nilüfer Zümrüt; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 114037The exciting exploration on sensory marketing presented in this book is just the foundation upon which to build future research. There are myriad unexplored questions and innumerable directions in which to take this research. Our goal in this chapter is not to provide an exhaustive array of these future directions, but rather to stimulate the reader into exploring new ideas. We present possible future directions for each sense individually (vision, audition, smell, touch, taste), and conclude with ideas for future research addressing the interplay among multiple senses within consumer behavior. © 2010 by Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.Publication Metadata only A sound status among the Ottoman elite architectural patrons of sixteenth-century Istanbul mosques and their recitation programs(Univ Texas Press, 2018) Department of Archeology and History of Art; Ergin, Nina Macaraig; Faculty Member; Department of Archeology and History of Art; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/AN/APublication Metadata only A southern multinational and an emerging European state in an entry bargaining process(Palgrave Macmillan, 2010) Department of International Relations; Bakır, Caner; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 108141Publication Metadata only A survey of the additive dilogarithm(Birkhauser, 2021) Department of Mathematics; Ünver, Sinan; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 177871Borel’s construction of the regulator gives an injective map from the algebraic K–groups of a number field to its Deligne–Beilinson cohomology groups. This has many interesting arithmetic and geometric consequences. The formula for the regulator is expressed in terms of the classical polyogarithm functions. In this paper, we give a survey of the additive dilogarithm and the several different versions of the weight two regulator in the infinitesimal setting. We follow a historical approach which we hope will provide motivation for the definitions and the constructions.Publication Metadata only A systemic approach to impression formation: from verbal to multimodal processes(Taylor and Francis, 2012) Garrido, Margarida V.; Department of Psychology; Semin, Gün Refik; Researcher; Department of Psychology; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/AThe connection between mental and social life remains one of the most intriguing topics in all of psychology. This book reviews some of the most recent advances in research exploring the links between how people think and behave in interpersonal situations. The chapters represent a variety of theoretical orientations, ranging from evolutionary approaches through cognitive and affective theories, all the way to considering social and cultural influences on the relationship between social cognition and interpersonal behavior. Given its breadth of coverage, this volume is useful both as a basic reference book and as an informative textbook for advanced courses dealing with social cognition and interpersonal behavior. The main target audience comprises researchers, students, and professionals in all areas of the social and behavioral sciences, including social, cognitive, clinical, counseling, personality, organizational, forensic, and applied psychology, as well as sociology, communication studies, and social work. Written in a readable yet scholarly style, this volume serves as an engaging overview of the field for students in courses dealing with social cognition and social interaction at undergraduate and graduate levels.Publication Metadata only A tale of two cities: Thebes and Chalcis in a world of change (ninth to fifteenth centuries)(Taylor and Francis, 2021) Department of Archeology and History of Art; Kontogiannis, Nikolaos; Faculty Member; Department of Archeology and History of Art; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 258781Central Greece during the Byzantine era has often been summarily and perhaps simplistically considered by earlier historians as a primarily agrarian backwater, coming to forefront only. Chalcis gradually came under Venetian rule, and served as an international maritime colony. These divergent political conditions also gradually influenced the civic conditions and the urban fabric of both cities. Between the ninth and the twelfth centuries, the “special bond” between two cities was achieved through a matrix of economic, social, and political features, which can be traced down to the level of urban neighbourhoods. In both cities, similar patterns emerge on the basis of material culture and the concentration of activities. The establishment and continuous use of Byzantine neighbourhoods despite the deficiencies in our knowledge of their boundaries, organization, and exact size seem to represent a conscious choice on the part of the inhabitants. Defensive walls played a primary role, defining the walled area as primary and that outside the walls as secondary.Publication Metadata only Across the sea ... and beyond(Policy Press, 2018) Crawley, Heaven; Jones, Katharine; McMahon, Simon; Sigona, Nando; N/A; Duvell, Franck; Other; Migration Research Program at Koç University (MIReKoç) / Göç Araştırmaları Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezi (MIReKoç); N/A; N/AN/APublication Metadata only Active control of plate-like structures for vibration and sound suppression(intech Europe, 2012) Department of Mechanical Engineering; Başdoğan, İpek; Boz, Utku; Külah, Serkan; Arıdoğan, Mustafa Uğur; Faculty Member; PhD Student; Master Student; PhD Student; Department of Mechanical Engineering; College of Engineering; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; 179940; N/A; N/A; N/APublication Metadata only Adaptive streaming of multiview video over P2P networks(Wiley, 2013) N/A; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; Gürler, Cihat Göktuğ; Tekalp, Ahmet Murat; PhD Student; Faculty Member; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; College of Engineering; N/A; 26207Three-dimensional (3D) video is the next natural step in the evolution of digital media technologies. Recent 3D auto-stereoscopic displays can display multiview video with up to 200 views. While it is possible to broadcast 3D stereo video (two views) over digital TV platforms today, streaming over IP provides a more flexible approach for distribution of stereo and free-view 3D media to home and mobile with different connection bandwidth and different 3D displays. Here, flexible transport refers to quality-scalable and view-scalable transport over the Internet. These scalability options are the key to deal with the biggest challenge, which is the scarcity of bandwidth in IP networks, in the delivery of multiview video. However, even with the scalability options at hand, it is very possible that the bandwidth requirement of the sender side can reach to critical levels and render such a service infeasible. Peer-to-peer (P2P) video streaming is a promising approach and has received significant attention recently and can be used to alleviate the problem of bandwidth scarcity in server-client-based applications. Unfortunately, P2P also introduces new challenges, such as handling unstable peer connections and peers' limited upload capacity. In this chapter, we provide an adaptive P2P video streaming solution that addresses these challenges for streaming multiview video over P2P overlays. We start with reviewing fundamental video transmission concepts and the state-of-the-art P2P video streaming solutions. We then take a look at beyond the state of the art and introduce the methods for enabling adaptive video streaming for P2P network to distribute legacy monoscopic video. Finally, we move to modifications that are needed to deliver multiview video in an adaptive manner over the Internet. We provide benchmark test results against the state of the P2P video streaming solutions to prove the superiority of the proposed approach in adaptive video transmission.Publication Metadata only Adjuvant or salvage radiotherapy in postoperative prostate cancer(Springer, 2017) Kuban, Deborah A.; N/A; N/A; Selek, Uğur; Bölükbaşı, Yasemin; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; 27211; 216814Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening increased the diagnosis of prostate cancer at a localized stage to be treated with a curative intent; approximately half of them undergo radical prostatectomy, and roughly one third of surgically treated patients are expected to experience a recurrence in 10 years' follow-up. Once PSA failure occurs, many develop distant metastases at a median of 8 years and afterward followed by cancer-related death at a median of 5 years. Biochemical failure risk after radical prostatectomy is mainly expected mostly in men with any of the following features: detectable postoperative PSA, positive surgical margins, extraprostatic extension of tumor (T3a), seminal vesicle invasion (T3b), and Gleason score ≥ 8. The radiotherapy in the undetectable PSA environment (<0.01 ng/mL) within 4 months after prostatectomy is termed as "adjuvant," while radiotherapy in rising PSA within any time after prostatectomy is defined as "salvage."Publication Metadata only Adoption of global consumer culture: the road to global brands(Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd., 2012) N/A; Department of Business Administration; Tunalı, Ayşegül Özsomer; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 108158The cultural influence of global brands has never been more important. In psychological terms, global brands are perceived as creating an identity, and a sense of achievement for consumers, symbolizing the aspired values of global consumer culture (GCC). Through the process of meaning transfer consumers internalize these values and ideals to their self-concept (McCracken 1986). On one hand, global brands carry the espoused values of the global culture, which refl ects mostly the core values of Western societies, including freedom of choice, free market, and individual rights (Gupta and Govindarajan 2004); on the other hand, consumers actively create and add new meanings to global brands through a process of meaning co-creation. Global brands are defi ned as brands that have widespread global aware-ness, availability, acceptance and demand, often found under the same name with consistent positioning, personality, look and feel in major markets enabled by centrally coordinated marketing strategies and pro-grams (Özsomer and Altaras 2008). Global brands with their consistent positioning benefi t from a unique perceived image worldwide. Consumers equate consumption of global brands with modernity, consumerism, progress, success, effi ciency and a promise of abundance (Holton 2000). Consumers' preferences for global brands are positively associated with the extent to which they believe these brands are available around the world rather than being available only in the local markets (Steenkamp, Batra and Alden 2003). Such a global positioning increases in its strategic appeal as consumers around the world develop similar needs and tastes constituting global consumer segments, such as the affl uent and teenagers (Hassan and Katsanis 1994; Özsomer and Simonin 2004; Ter Hofstede, Wedel and Steenkamp 2002). Multinational corporations (MNCs) are positioned to benefi t sig-nifi cantly from developing and leveraging global brands. In fact, many of the strategic actions of MNCs are fueling the growth of global brands. Focusing their marketing eff orts on fewer global brands enables MNCs to concentrate resources on a portfolio of leading brands with strong growth potential that best meets the needs, aspirations and values of M2841 -OKAZAKI 9781848448582 PRINT.indd 42 M2841 -OKAZAKI 9781848448582 PRINT.indd 42 28/11/2011 15:24 28/11/2011 15:24 Adoption of global consumer culture 43 people around the world. For example, since its Path to Growth strategy was launched in 2000, Unilever has reduced the number of brands from 1600 to 400 leading brands and under 250 tail brands (www.unilever.com). Around the same time, P&G has also pruned its brand portfolio in favor of global brands (Pitcher, 1999), while in 2003 Heinz declared its intention to focus on a smaller number of "power brands" and selling many of its local brands. Similarly, Colgate Palmolive has invested a lot in making Colgate Total a global brand name. These and many other companies are betting their futures on global brands and consumers around the world from advanced to emerging economies are responding favorably. For example, 23 of P&G's and 13 of Unilever's brands have more than a billion dollar in net annual sales.
