Modelling the relationship between productivity, employment and wages in Turkish small and medium sized enterprises,1981-1998
(Bilkent University, 2001)This thesis analyzes the empirical relationship between wages and productivity as well as the relationship between wages and employment in Turkish manufacturing industry. Unlike the previous studies done for manufacturing ... -
Modelling The Turkish perception of foreign policy options : water conflict between Syria and Turkey
(Bilkent University, 1996)This thesis is a study on modelling the Turkish perception of foreign policy options regarding the water conflict between Syria and Turkey. A game theoretical model is used to analyze the current situation of the ... -
Models and algorithms for deterministic and robust discrete time/cost trade-off problems
(Bilkent University, 2008)Projects are subject to various sources of uncertainties that often negatively impact activity durations and costs. Therefore, it is of crucial importance to develop effective approaches to generate robust project schedules ... -
Models and algorithms for parallel text retrieval
(Bilkent University, 2006)In the last decade, search engines became an integral part of our lives. The current state-of-the-art in search engine technology relies on parallel text retrieval. Basically, a parallel text retrieval system is composed ... -
Modern Greek enlightenment and 19th century Greek nationalism
(Bilkent University, 2005)This thesis analyzes modern Greek enlightenment and 19th century Greek Nationalism, in the light of nationalism theories. It confronts with the process of Modern Greek enlightenment which took place within the lands of ... -

Modernizing neighbors: Turkish-Iranian relations from the interwar period to the Early Cold War
(Bilkent University, 2019-09)After the establishment of the Turkish Republic and the Pahlavi dynasty, Turkish-Iranian bilateral relations reached their peak under the leaderships of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and Reza Shah Pahlavi. Then, the premiership ... -
Modes of shear wave in magnetic resonance elastography
(Bilkent University, 2014)Manual palpation is used for diagnosing change in stiffness of tissues, due to a pathological state. Unfortunately, this diagnosis tool is limited with organs close to the surface of the body. Magnetic resonance elastography ... -
Modified block replacement models in discrete and continuous time
(Bilkent University, 2000)In this study, we present modified multi-component block replacement policies. Units (items) are replaced only at prescribed times j = 1,2,... A failed unit is changed with a good one with probability a. Replacement ... -
A modified wideband Gysel power divider structure
(Bilkent University, 2016-12)Power dividers/combiners are one of the essential and crucial components of the modern RF communication systems since dividing makes RF power amplification easier to handle. As the data rates of the systems increase, the ... -
Modular representations and monomial burnside rings
(Bilkent University, 2004)We introduce canonical induction formulae for some character rings of a finite group, some of which follows from the formula for the complex character ring constructed by Boltje. The rings we will investigate are the ... -
Modular vector invariants
(Bilkent University, 2006)Vector invariants of finite groups (see the introduction for definitions) provides, in general, counterexamples for many properties of the invariant theory when the characteristic of the ground field divides the group ... -
Molecular analyses of hematological malignancies
(Bilkent University, 1998)Normal hematopoiesis is known to be disrupted in hematological malignancies. As research advances, many new treatment techniques are introduced, among which allogeneic transplantation is the most effective. In patients who ... -
Molecular analysis of enginereed nanomaterials in biomedical and regenerative medicine applications
(Bilkent University, 2019-05)Molecular mechanisms are inspiration source for effective nanomaterial synthesis through minimalist bottom-up approaches. Mimicking functional biophysicochemical properties of biomacromolecules can give new insights for ... -
Molecular analysis of senescence-associated protein phosphatases DUSP10 and MTMR11
(Bilkent University, 2009)Liver cancer is the fifth most common cancer in the world. Until recently, tumor cells were thought to proliferate indefinitely. In a previous study, our group showed spontaneous induction of replicative senescence in ... -
Molecular characterization of the ATPase component of a putative ABC type transporter in moraxella catarrhalis
(Bilkent University, 2004)Moraxella catarrhalis is one of the major causes of respiratory tract and middle ear infections. Little is known about the pathogenesis of M. catarrhalis infection. A pathogenic bacterium requires adherence, invasion, ... -
