This thesis analyzes factors motivating and inhibiting the adoption of information systems in enterprises in Gaziantep by a scale generated on Rogers̕ theory of diffusion of innovation. These factors are grouped into four as administrative, technological, environmental, and organizational characteristics in the scale built. Structured interview method was used while collecting the data. It was interviewed with 20 firms, operating in various sectors in Gaziantep. Results of the study showed that, within the fifteen factors studied, five of them had significant effects on the rate of information systems utilization. These factors were the relative advantage of information systems, the quality of information systems infrastructure, CEO̕s attitude towards information systems, employees̕ knowledge about information systems, and the service quality of the vendor.

Defect cause modeling with decision tree and regression analysis : a case study in casting industry
Bakır, Berna; Baykal, Nazife; Department of Information Systems (2007)
In this thesis, we study improvement of product quality in manufacturing industry by identifying and optimizing influential process variables that cause defects on the items produced. Real data provided by a manufacturing company from the metal casting industry were studied. Two well-known approaches, logistic regression and decision trees, were used to model the relationship between process variables and defect types. The approaches used were compared.
Smartproducts: technological applications vs user expectations
Atacan Pamir, Naz; Erbuğ, Çiğdem; Department of Industrial Design (2010)
This thesis focuses on the technological trends in smart products, and analyzes their conformity to the user expectations. The advances in computation technologies have totally revolutionized the product concept, and with the integration of microchips, software and sensors into the classical everyday objects, smart products, able to sense the context, reason about the sensed data and act according to the situation, have emerged. This new way of computing basing on the ubiquitous and calm computing visions, ...
Analysis of electronic signature in Turkey from the legal and economic perspectives and the awareness level in the country
İskender, Gökhan; Koçyiğit, Altan; Department of Information Systems (2006)
As in the case of other information technologies, the best way of obtaining efficient results from electronic signature application is integrating it to the legal and economic systems and increasing the awareness level of technology in the society. This thesis performs the legal and economic analyses of electronic signature in Turkey and measures the awareness level in the society. The analyses performed in the thesis show that electronic signature is not legally established in Turkey even the legal base is...
Priority based multi-constrained quality of service routing in military applications
Araz, Bora; Koçyiğit, Altan; Department of Information Systems (2005)
This thesis proposes a new algorithm for multi-constrained Quality of Service Optimal Path Routing in the context of military applications. The objective of our routing algorithm is to manage network traffic according to quality of service requirements of connection requests using military metrics. The algorithm is mainly based on communication priority. The QoS metrics such as bandwidth, delay and packet loss ratio are considered as basic metrics on path finding. If there is no suitable path for the reques...
A web-based public procurement system
Turan, Hamide Karahan; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Information Systems (2004)
This study focuses on developing and implementing a web-based public procurement system. As one innovative way of enhancing public procurement, an attempt to develop and implement electronic tendering system is to be made. In designing the system, not only technological aspects but also issues related to public procurement process improvement are considered. As an analysis and design approach, object oriented methodology was chosen and UML was used. Java as a development language was preferred because the r...
