CSCL has recently begun to consider how shared undersranding is achieved in computer-mediated interactional environments. In this paper, we contribute to this line of investigation by exploring how interactants produce and maintain indexical symmetry and reciprocity of perspectives in online chat by establishing reciprocal fields of copresence. We use ethnomethodologically informed analysis to describe the interactional methods by which actors establish indexical symmetry and reciprocal fields of copresence. We show how this serves as the basis for shared understanding as an interactional achievement in VMT chat. Since only the artifacts on display, rather than the embodied presence of the actors themselves, are all that is available for inspection and use by actors, we demonstrate that it is in the production and use of these artifacts that shared understandings and mutuality of perspective are achieved.

Rapid classification of heavy metal-exposed freshwater bacteria by infrared spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics using supervised method
Gurbanov, Rafig; Gözen, Ayşe Gül; Severcan, Feride (Elsevier BV, 2018-1)
Rapid, cost-effective, sensitive and accurate methodologies to classify bacteria are still in the process of development. The major drawbacks of standard microbiological, molecular and immunological techniques call for the possible usage of infrared (IR) spectroscopy based supervised chemometric techniques. Previous applications of IR based chemometric methods have demonstrated outstanding findings in the classification of bacteria. Therefore, we have exploited an IR spectroscopy based chemometrics using su...
A Generic Analytical Modelling Approach for Performance Evaluation of the Handover Schemes in Heterogeneous Environments
Kirsal, Yonal; Ever, Enver; Koçyiğit, Altan; Gemikonakli, Orhan; Mapp, Glenford (2014-11-01)
In recent years, there has been an increased interest in the integration of different technologies in heterogeneous environments. Modelling heterogeneous systems is a complex task and handover schemes should consider issues such as network coverage, mobility, and Quality of Service (QoS). Analytical models are useful to deal with this complexity. This paper presents a generic framework to model handover in heterogeneous environments for performance evaluation of different handover schemes. The model develop...
Removal of antibiotic resistance genes in various water resources recovery facilities
Kucukunsal, Serkan; İçgen, Bülent (Wiley, 2020-06-01)
Water resources recovery facilities (WWTPs) are hotspots for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and pose a significant threat to environments. Therefore, ARG removal efficiencies of WWTPs are of great importance. In this study, conventional activated sludge (CAS), biological nutrient removal (BNR), sequencing batch reactor (SBR), membrane bioreactor (MBR), package MBR, and WWTP with coagulation-flocculation and UV disinfection units were investigated in terms of their removal efficiencies on overall bacteri...
Unscented Kalman filter-aided Gaussian sum filter
Gokce, Murat; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2015-06-01)
A non-linear filter is developed for continuous-time systems with observations/measurements carried out in discrete-time. The filter developed can approximate the a priori and a posteriori probability density function (pdf) with weighted Gaussian sums inside specific search regions. To make the approximations, first, Gaussians are placed with equal intervals inside the search regions and deterministic sample points are chosen within the search regions. The pdf values are then calculated at sample points usi...
Application of the bentix index in assessing ecological quality of hard substrata: a case study from the Bosphorus Strait, Turkey
KALKAN, E.; KARHAN, S.U.; MUTLU, E.; SIMBOURA, N.; BEKOLET, M. (National Documentation Centre (EKT), 2007-6-1)
In this paper, a biotic index (Bentix) has been used for the assessment of ecological quality status of shallow water hard substrate benthic ecosystems affected by coastal sewage discharges in the Bosphorus Strait. A significant difference was observed between the control and the discharge stations with regard to Bentix values (Mann-Whitney U Test, p=0.002) and ecological quality status of the discharge stations was worse than that of controls. The index values revealed that sewage discharges caused ser...
