Vol 7, No 27 (2013): Sosyal Medyada Rekabet Analizi İçin Karşılaştırma Görevine Yönelik Fikir Madenciliği Modeli
Günümüz internet kullanıcıları bir yandan yeni nesil teknolojilerin getirdiği kolaylıklar sayesinde ağ üzerinde sosyalleşirken, diğer yandan da birçok iş alanında dönüşümlere neden olmaktadır. Artık işletmelerin sosyal medya olarak adlandırdığımız bu ortamlara eğilmeleri bir zorunluluk halini almıştır. Zira bu ortamlar kullanıcıyı pasif konumdan içerik üreten aktif kullanıcı haline getirmiş ve bünyesinde ürün ve hizmetlere ilişkin barındırdığı milyonlarca yorum ile işletmelere rekabet analizi, itibar yönetimi, kriz yönetimi, halkla ilişkiler gibi alanlarda yeni rekabet yöntemlerine olanak sağlamıştır. Bu doğrultuda çalışmada sosyal medyada rekabet analizi için karşılaştırma görevine yönelik bir fikir madenciliği modeli geliştirilmiştir.
Competitive Analysis on Social Media Comparison Task Oriented: Opinion Mining Model
Since social media environments can turn users from a passive position into active users who self-generate contents, in their millions of comments, relating to products and services thus providing enterprises the opportunities for new competition methods in areas such as competitive analysis, reputation management, crisis management, and public relations; an opinion mining model is used in the study for analysis of social media aimed at comparison purposes.

Vol 5, No 18 (2012): A Typographic Analysis of Turkish Newspapers' Websites
Prof. Dr. Hasip Pektaş acknowledges that typography is in some respect the most important element in an online newspaper's graphic design as it is the art of situating typefaces on a two-dimensional surface. Typography thus ensures that writing pushes the limits of logic, keeps attention alive, caresses human spirit, infuriates, and excites. Therefore, the typography of an online newspaper should be “simple, effective and deep”.

Vol 4, No 16 (2012): Change in the Education System in England and Wales in the last 70 years (Part 1: 1944 – 1949)
Professor Rogerson, an education leader in the Yorkshire region, having being actively involved in the implementation vis-à-vis the development of regional education policies within the various national education models and paradigms of England and Wales in the last 50 years analyses the 1944 Education Act seen as pivotal in defining the relationship between the centre and the regions after the 2nd World War. He argues with breadth and depth that “subsequent developments have been in accord with the Act or have been enabled by the add-on legislation of succeeding governments because the educational themes, which developed later, have their origin in the intentions; the spirit, the mandatory or permissive mix of the 1944 Act; and in reactions to it.”

Vol 4, No 14 (2012): International Film Festivals: A Cinema Struggling to Exist Between New Resources and New ‘Dependencies’
Asst. Prof. Dr. Tülay Çelik provides a balanced and well-reasoned criticism of the new director-cinema in Turkey against the background of globalised marketing through the International Film Festivals and networks of distribution outlets. Dr. Çelik argues for the preservation of the art in the films and the individual dynamism of the director-producer phenomenon. She cautions against festival directors, distribution managers and the international co-producers determining the production process exclusively and from reducing the ethos of the new film dynamism to sheer consumption.

Vol 2, No 6 (2011): Lord Krishna Recognized by Scholars Long Time Ago
The article redefines myth away from falsehood, advances literary, archaeological evidence, valid technological proofs and offers insights into spiritual realities to re-present Lord Krishna as an historical personage making it unnecessary to over argue this reality by consigning erstwhile widely-held oriental outdated myth postulation of the West, which incidentally had also influenced some Eastern indologists to arbitrariness, political motivation and missionary disposition. Professor Horacio Francisco Arganis-Juárez provides a detailed deconstruction of Benjamin Preciado Solis’ the First Historical Evidences of Krishna.
