    (Bilkent University, 2021) Agha, Nafisa; Ahmed, Dima Hazem Ahmed; Faiz, Hassan İmran; Gökmen, Denizhan; Pitafi, Marvi
    This research paper aims to discuss the development of the Ottoman coffeehouse in the late Ottoman Empire in conjunction with the socio-political role it played during that time period. The birth of the Ottoman coffeehouse can be traced all the way back to the early 16th century whereby coffee was brought to Istanbul by a handful of traders. Since then, coffeehouses developed into something larger than a mere source of recreation. Instead, they aimed to provide avenues for political debate and the expression of art. People from all walks of life congregated at these coffeehouses, which further developed their presence as a modern-day public sphere. As such, this paper explicates the development of the Ottoman coffeehouse with regards to their socio-cultural and political function with an added focus on the perspective of European travellers who frequented these establishments.

    (IEEE, 2008-05) Aydın, C. Ç.; Türkmen, G.; Özyurt, E.; Aydın, E. U.; Çaǧıltay, N. E.; Özbek, M. E.; Alparslan, N. Ceren; Kara, A.
    In the last decade, the effect of internet usage in education is gradually increased. When we look from academic perspective, the new technologies provided alternatives for students learning. As distance education becomes important everyday, the indispensable elements of teaching and education, laboratories must be reachable via remote connection. Consequently, the education that is going to be given to the students will be more flexible with respect to place and time constraints and students can reach laboratory facilities at any time and anywhere not only in lectures and practical hours. In this study, European Remote Radio Laboratory (ERRL) which is a distance remote Radio Frequency (RF) laboratory designed for electrical-electronics students, is described generally. The software architecture, infrastructure and experiment that can be done with a remote connection have been described.
