The benefits and potential implementation problems of GIS in the water distribution services of municipalities case study: The Kirkuk Water Directorate / CBS?nin belediyelerin su dağıtım hizmetlerinde yararları ve hayata geçirilmelerinde karşılasılması olası sorunlar örnek konu: Kerkük Su Müdüriyesi. Yayımlanmış yüksek lisans tezi. Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü.The benefits and potential implementation problems of GIS in the water distribution services of municipalities case study: The Kirkuk Water Directorate(2012) Ali, Suha Aziz; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Bilgi Teknolojileri BölümüKerkük Su Müdüriyesi'nde muhtemel bir coğrafi bilgi sistemlerinin (CBS) kurulması, giriş seviyesinde incelendi. Literatürdeki seçme kaynaklar incelendi ve Kerkük'ten daha küçük, daha büyük ve Kerkük'le aynı büyüklükte belediyelerin, su dağıtım bölümlerinde başarılı CBS kurulumları öğrenildi. Bu sistemler, su şebekelerinin varlıklarının yönetiminde, ağı gerçek zamanlı izlemede ve hidrolik modellemelerde kullanılmaktadır. İşlenen çalışmalar, su dağıtım ağının yönetimi dışında, sızdırma, patlama ve bozuk pompa gibi sıkıntılardan kaynaklanan sorunlu parçaların tesbiti hakkında başarı raporları vermiştir. Bu araştırma, Kerkük Su Müdüriyesi'nin, CBS için, kağıt tabanlı kayıtların sayısal ortama aktarılmasındaki olası sorunları ortaya çıkartmayı hedeflemiştir. Literatür taraması başarılı uygulamaları raporlasa da bunlardan Kerkük Su Müdüriyesi'nin olası sorunları ancak dolaylı yoldan ortaya çıkartılmıştır. Araştırmacı, CBS yazılımı ve veri hazırlanması deneyimi için bir CBS kursuna katılmıştır. Aynı zamanda, Ankara'nın su dağıtım bölümünde, CBS iyileştirilmesinde etkin görev almış deneyimli personelden bilgi alınmıştır. Bu sayede, olası sorunlar belirlenmiştir. Kerkük Su Müdüriyesi tarafından paylaşılan paftalar üzerinde yapılan incelemeler göstermiştir ki temel bir CBS kursu alan bir veri çalışanı, olası sorunları çözebilir. Literatür ve incelemelerin sonuçları gösteriyor ki şebeke varlıklarının mekansal ve mekansal olmayan özniteliklerinin veritabanlarının olusturulması, üretken bir CBS için olması gereken bir başlangıçtır. Veri kalitesini yükseltmeden, bir hidrolik model yapılması neredeyse olanaksız, aynı şekilde, gerçek zamanlı izleme sistemlerini kurmak da oldukça zordur. Bir başka bulgu da belirtmiştir ki kurumsal, örneğin iş kurallarında gibi, değişikliklerin yer alması olasıdır çünkü, CBS çalışanlarının yerinde gözlem için sık sık arazi çalışması gerekecektir. Bu çalışmanın, Kerkük Belediyesi'ne, CBS kurulması için kaynak yönetiminde faydalı olması umulmaktadır çünkü bu konu altında mali fizibilite çalışmaları başlatılması beklenmektedir.Item Citation Count: ÖZBEY, E. (2013). Expanding m-commerce possibilities through technology enabled devices. Yayımlanmamış yüksek lisans tezi. Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü.Expanding m-commerce possibilities through technology enabled devices(2013-09) Özbey, Engin; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Matematik ve Bilgisayar BölümüPopular payment systems including asynchronous, online and mobile payments are investigated. Mobile phone payment systems are targeted after finding that mcommerce is projected to rise. With this increase in the market share, mobile devices are found-out to share physical wallets’ load as they can merge credit and ATM cards. The possibilities increase with the adoption of new technologies, such as NFC (Near Field Communication), so that the handsets can house loyalty, mass transport cards as well as electronically held money transfer ability. On the other side, the security issues including identity and money theft remain important although the expectations on converging physical wallets into the handsets are strong. However, this is not a definite obstacle and big service providers and vendors give signals to adopt such a technology in their services and products. As the conclusion, the thesis argues that e-commerce can expand more through additional technologies on the mobile devices.Item Citation Count: Hussein, Shalau (2014).

Using dijkstra algorithm in calculating alternative shortest paths for public transportation with transfers and walking. Yayımlanmamış yüksek lisans tezi. Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü.Using dijkstra algorithm in calculating alternative shortest paths for public transportation with transfers and walking(2014-06) Al-Tameemi, Haitham Latif Hassan; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Bilgi Teknolojisi BölümüIn this study, the possibility of using the Dijkstra algorithm in calculate shortest paths and using GIS to connect transport lines for increasing efficiency in the accessibility to shortest paths was studied. The results are presented as spatial maps. Basically, the research question this thesis addresses is: “Can Iraqi authorities use graph theory and shortest path algorithm to build a system to develop a public transit system including exchanging lines and walking, based on the experiences of transport systems in Turkey?"As a research methodology, Ankara’s mass transportation has been examined as considerable similarities are found between Ankara and Baghdad in terms of population in number and in density. Hence, an introduction is given on both cities. Additionally, information technologies to investigate and promote public transport systems in the literature are visited. As gathering spatial data has required considerable time and resources, sample datasets of Ankara’s mass transport system are used to run demonstrative applications to highlight potential problems in the technical side. The surveyed literature also includes graph theory, transportation network, shortest path problems and GIS usage in the public transportation. The used MapInfo Professional and MapBasic software tools are available on the market. Specific application programs are developed in MapBasic to ease analyses and implementation in MapInfo. Additionally, programs are coded in C++ to apply Dijkstra algorithm to feed data to GIS software. Limitations are also reported to open further research avenues including other algorithms for path optimization. The results show that Dijkstra algorithm can be successfully applied to reform and design mass transportation systems. An unfortunate finding underlined that it is too early to jump to application design as the primary problem is to collect reliable and up to date spatial data of Baghdad.Item Citation Count: Abdullah, Maysaa (2015).

The effectiveness of feature selection metrics on the text categorization performance / Özellik belirleme matriksinin metin siniflandirma sisteminin performansi üzerindeki etkisi. Yayımlanmış yüksek lisans tezi. Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen bilimleri EnstitüsüThe effectiveness of feature selection metrics on the text categorization performance(2015) Al-Gartanee, Asmsaa; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Bilgisayar Teknolojisi Bilim DalıText Categorization (TC) is an important intelligence information processing technology. This technology has high value in information retrieval, Electronic Governments, information filtering, text databases, digital libraries, and other aspects, but the problem of feature selection is equally or more important than text-categorization. In this thesis, we did our experiments with the help of standard Reuters-21578 dataset, and we discussed many important topics ranging from collecting data, to organizing data and ultimately using the organized data to efficiently conduct tests using the feature selection metrics.The general idea of any feature selection metric is to determine importance of words using some measure that can keep informative words, and remove non-informative words, which can then help the text-categorization engine categorize a document, D, into some category, C. The feature selection metrics that will be discussed in this thesis are: Term frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF), Document Frequency (DF), Mutual Information- Explanation (MI), Chi-square Statistics (CHI), GSS (Galavotti-Sebastiani-Simi) Coefficient – Explanation. It will combine Term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) and Documents Frequency (DF) metrics to prepare the texts in a perfect way. After that, those texts will be used by classification process in Weka to get the best learning machines algorithms and the best performance of system, by computing performance measures such as (accuracy, error rate, recall, precision and F-measure). We compare the reusability of popular active learning algorithms for text classification and identify the best classifiers to use in active learning for text classification. All these mentioned measures were computed and plotted.Item Citation Count: Al-Gburi, Omar (2015).

Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen bilimleri EnstitüsüA study on some verifiable electronic voting schemes: Dynavote, end-2-end verifiable voting and efficient receipt free voting(2015) Al-Gburi, Omar; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Bilgisayar Teknolojisi Bilim DalıIn the past decade the electronic voting has been developed of being a way of counting the votes. The process of electronic voting or voting remotely (voting via the Internet) has become one of the interesting research topics, has been built on the provision of many of the regulations that have been implemented to a vote-mail or remote voting. Remote voting systems are more vulnerable to attack by outsiders than electronic voting systems in controlled environments. The remote voting scheme should provide the accuracy and security of the system and also ease of use and coercion (and other things will be mentioned later). In this study, a theoretical study of the electronic vote is given and also countries that have used electronic voting are listed, also barriers and requirements facing the process of designing the electronic election systems have been provided. In addition, a brief background of some encryption algorithms and systems which are used for the purpose of the design of electronic voting systems are given. Some models of schemes (in terms of cryptographic algorithms) have been designed for the purpose of electronic voting are described and the success and failure of each of them are given. The three electronic voting systems, have been described in details and analyzed in terms of success and also shortcomings of these systems. In this study, these three schemes have been chosen since the authors of these three schemes claim to satisfy different aspects of electronic voting requirements . To satisfy one requirement, one may compromise on other requirement. By this way, requirements of electronic voting may be examined.Item Citation Count: Mohsin, Maaeda (2015). An application of a GIS-based campus information system: Kirkuk University as an example / CBS tabanlı bir kampüs bilgi sistemi uygulaması: Kerkük Üniversitesi örneği.Yayımlanmış yüksek lisans tezi. Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü.An application of a GIS-based campus information system: Kirkuk University as an example(2015-01) Mohsin, Maaeda; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Bilgi Teknolojisi BölümüIn today's world, developing information technology (IT) plays an important role in our lives. One of the advantages of developing technology is obtaining, creating, saving, collecting, analyzing and using data and information formed by data easily in the computer environment. Like all areas in our lives, in academic life too, information technologies should be used effectively in order to benefit from them. Computer-supported studies are providing an academic environment will enable information to be used effectively. An information system that is map-based and contains an academic structure is easy to use. It supports the people and the associations that are at the stage of decision-making. Geographic information systems (GIS) are one of the most active technologies available for a spatial data management or handling system. An easy way to have access to an area is to digitally represent it in a computer environment. The GIS started with the purpose of creating digital maps, and it quickly became a valuable tool in the decision-making process for various areas. GIS is a system that uses spatial (geographically referenced) data and non-spatial database of descriptive information (attributes) and includes operations that support spatial analysis. Therefore, GIS and the programs supporting the system can be seen as advantageous while creating a map-based campus information system (CIS). In this study, a map-based CIS was designed after preparing a digital map of the campus area in desired formats containing spatial and non-spatial data, integrating different types of data that include: images, text, video, and graphics in a 3D (three-dimensional) model of the University's structure shown by appropriate programs in a computer environment. The system is known as a Geographical Information System-Based CIS and users who are going to use this system should be identified. In this study, the map-based CIS users are academic and administrative personnel in the University's structure, present students, and visitors that are seeking information about the University. After considering all users and identifying their needs, the system was designed. Kirkuk University campus was chosen for the application of the study. A sample model of a campus information system was designed for this area. The programs that were used while designing the CIS were MapInfo version 12.0 together with C#.NET, which was utilized to develop the GIS application-based CIS for Kirkuk University. In conclusion, users will integrate more easily into the Kirkuk University environment by using this application in text, images, a 3D model drawing of the campus (using the Google SketchUp program version 2013) and videos (using the Lumion program version 3.0). The multimedia database demonstrated in this study that GIS is a very important tool in the management of university facilities. This study is highly significant for Iraq and many other third world countries where the management of university facilities is conducted manually and is therefore slow and inaccurate. Advanced countries of the world where GIS is yet to be adopted as a powerful tool for the management of university facilities will find this study highly relevant.Item Citation Count: Najem, Omar (2015).

Obstacles to activating e-learning at Iraqi universities / Irak üniversitelerinde e-öğrenmeyi etkinleştirmenin önündeki engeller. Yayımlanmış yüksek lisans tezi. Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü.Obstacles to activating e-learning at Iraqi universities(Çankaya Üniversitesi, 2016) Shahoodh, Gailan; Çankaya Üniveristesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Matematik Bilgisayar Anabilim Dalı; Çankaya Üniveristesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü,Bilgi Teknolojileri Bilim DalıThis study adopts a quantitative research approach to evaluate the research problem using collected data from a survey questionnaire administered to 124 respondents (professors, instructors, employee and students) from different Iraqi universities. Using both online and hardcopy questionnaires that were based on the TAM framework, it included questions related to the demographics of the respondents and any obstacles in activating e-learning. The reliability of the questionnaire was tested and a high degree of internal consistency was found. Our study provides an analysis of each variable using descriptive statistics. Using factor analysis, we extracted four factors (Perceived Ease of Use (PEU), Perceived Usefulness (PU), Attitude toward Using and Actual System Use (ATU), and Behavioral Intention to Use (BIU) which were used in the correlation and regression analysis. Per the results of the regression test, the impact of PEU and PU were shown to be statistically significant in predicting and explaining both ATU and BIU. The results revealed that the impact of Perceived Ease of Use and Perceived Usefulness is significantly positive in affecting the attitude and behavioral intention of Iraqi universities' users towards LMS/e-learning, which is consistent with the TAM theory. Moreover, it shows that the two factors play a significant role in the acceptance of the new technology; i.e. the LMS at Iraqi universities can help to reduce any obstacles to e-learning implementation. In addition, conclusions and suggestions for future work are highlightedItem Citation Count: Zaidan Zaidan, Fadhel Kadhem (2016).

Global organizations and businesses are increasingly adopting ICT advancements within their activities, and gaining enduring benefits as well. Similar trends are obvious even in the educational sector, in the form of increasing adoption of e-learning across the worldMultiple learning platforms as Learning Management System - LMS have been employed, in this regard. It is noted that even Middle East countries have successfully directed their attention towards adopting e-learning trends. Iraq being potentially new with the technology integration has become the focus of this study, with respect to the implementation of Course Management System - CMS across its higher educational institutions. In order to assess its successful adoption and identifying relevant challenges, the study has employed TAM - Technology Acceptance Model, and designed the survey for gaining the faculty members' perceptions and readiness towards its adoption. Besides, qualitative secondary data from literature review, and qualitative primary v data from an interview with an IT expert has also been collected. It therefore adds to the credibility of the research findings to be used by the responsible authorities for taking relevant decisions. The study has acquired valued findings by means of using statistical techniques of Descriptive statistics, Correlation, and Regression analysis. It has been established that the Iraqi faculty members have significant intentions of using the CMS platform as an effective educational medium, once deployed.

Due to the many controversial arguments about what CMS is appropriate for a business website, this study aims to help decision makers and IT managers in businesses to decide on the best open source CMS. In this study, the latest versions of three widely used CMSs, namely WordPress, Joomla and Drupal, have been selected according to their market share. Our methodology has four steps. In the first step, while developing comparison criteria, we published an online survey that represents a pool of 76 candidate criteria to be determined according to IT experts' opinion according to their importance. We installed CMSs on online servers and we tested these systems according to absolutely essential and important criteria determined by experts in the field. We performed a functional analysis for each system, i.e., whether a system performs a specific criterion depending on a core feature "Built-in," or the system needs to be extended with a third-party extension "Plug-in." Our criteria covered the complexity of installation, social media integration, security, performance and usability features. Lastly, usability tests were conducted using the Post-Study-System-Usability-Questionnaire tool to discover which CMS offers the easiest learning curve. We concluded that Joomla is the best among its competitors because this system outperformed the other two systems and supported most of our criteria as core features. Furthermore, Joomla combines the flexibility of Drupal and the intuitive "User Friendliness" of WordPress as it allows the creation of high-quality websites by non-technical users.

New writing and communication styles using emojis are being used by people as a new language in different social media channels. This study adopts a quantitative research approach regarding emoji interpretations of users in order to evaluate the research problem using collected data from Twitter which is combined using the R program. These collected data are used in a survey questionnaire administered to 201 participants (students, staff and employees) from Çankaya University using Google Forms and shared by visiting the classes of students and by sending the survey using social media channels. This study aims to evaluate the interpretation of emojis by users. The methodology of the study depends on two parts, the first of which is the collection of data and the second using these data in a survey. The survey included questions related to the demographics of the respondents and questions about using social media and emojis. Then the remaining questions about the interpretation of the 201 participants for each of the top 100 emojis were collected from the R program as 'negative,' 'neutral' and 'positive.' Later, the study analyzed the results, which revealed that some of the emojis have different interpretations for different users.Item Citation Count: Almafrchi, Sabah Salam Hussein (2018). Cloud computing impact on communication and service sector: Iraq case study / İletişim ve hizmet sektörü'nde bulut bilişimin etkisi: Irak durum çalışması. Yayımlanmış yüksek lisans tezi. Ankara: Çankaya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü.Cloud computing impact on communication and service sector: Iraq case study(Çankaya Üniversitesi, 2018) Almafrchi, Sabah Salam Hussein; Çankaya Üniveristesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Bilgisayar Mühendisliği Anabilim Dalı; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Bilgi Teknolojileri Bilim DalıRapid advancements in technology have enhanced the significance of the use of cloud technology. The deployment of cloud computing as effective technology integration has been successful, particularly across the developed states of the world. However, there have been certain behavioural issues regarding the cloud technology activation in certain developing regions, rather than the technical limitations. In the context, the current research aims to evaluate the impact of deployment of cloud computing on the communication and service sector of Iraq. Even though the cloud computing approach seems appealing, yet certain challenges of adverse extent are encountered across the states where internet penetration and technology acceptance is not considerable. Similar is the case with Iraq; hence, the researcher has targeted the communication and service sector of Iraq with respect to assessing the deployment of cloud computing. In this regard, the constructs of UTAUT model as identified dependent and independent variables of the study have been employed, in terms of conducting a multiple-item 5-point scale online survey across 251 IT experts of the targeted domain. Resultantly, it has been established that there have been certain challenges of disregarding cloud computing as an effective measure of enhancing productivity, and efficiency of the employees in a secure and feasible manner. Therefore, the study has recommended training and awareness programs that must present the credibility and integrity of cloud computing as an effective technological deployment. These programs assist accepting the cloud computing technology by the employees in the communication sector, which enables the employees, as well as the organizations, providing more efficient tasks by reducing the costs and efforts needed to perform the exact same tasks without the use of cloud computing technologies. This improvement also assists other employees and organization to accept that technology, which eventually leads to more and more acceptance to the cloud computing technology in the communication and service sector.
