The time period after the mid-20th century was named as information age or digital age. In that age, the world is being digitalized very fastly. The amount of data transferred and processed online is increasing rapidly. As a result, data protection became an essential topic for researchers. To process or make a computation on the encrypted data deciphering ciphertext first causes a security flaw. Homomorphic encryption (HE) algorithms were designed to make computations on data without deciphering it. However, HE algorithms are able to work for a limited amount of processing steps. Fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) algorithms are developed to solve this problem. It is feasible to apply any accurately calculable operation on encrypted data. This thesis presents definitions, properties, applications of FHE. Some constructions of FHE schemes based on the integers are also analyzed. Furthermore, the computational complexity of two algorithms, namely the DGHV scheme and Batch DGHV scheme has been computed, and their efficiency is compared based on the complexities. While the DGHV scheme encrypts the one-bit message, the batch DGHV scheme encrypts an ℓ-bit message vector m at a time. The primary purpose is to research which option is more efficient for encrypting l-bit messages. The first option is to use the DGHV scheme for l-times. The second option is to use the batch DGHV scheme one time. We conclude that for message size l when security parameter l ≤ λ^3/2 using the batch scheme is more efficient than using DGHV scheme.

Financial Development of the Waqfs in Konya and the Agricultural Economy in the Central Anatolia (Late Sixteenth-Early Seventeenth Centuries)
Orbay, Kayhan (Brill, 2012-01-01)
This study examines the financial history of three waqfs (those of Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi, Sadreddin-i Konevi, and Selim II) in Konya through their account records covering the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. These waqfs (charitable foundations) had large agricultural holdings, and their financial developments consequently reflect the local agricultural conditions in central Anatolia. This analysis of the waqf account books deals with the short-term financial difficulties resulting from h...
Tarsus Şer’iyye Sicillerinde Yer Alan Konut Tanımları Üzerinden Değerlendirmeler
Uçar, Meltem (Middle East Technical University Faculty of Architecture, 2021-12-01)
Osmanlı Dönemi’nden günümüze ulaşan geleneksel konut yapıları çoğunlukla 19. yy sonu ve 20. yy başına tarihlenmektedir. Mevcut geleneksel konut araştırmaları çoğunlukla Osmanlı’nın son dönemine tarihlenen ve günümüze ulaşabilen tarihi konut yapılarının fiziksel biçimlenmesinden elde edilen bilgilere ve bu bilgilere dayalı değerlendirmelere dayalıdır. Bununla birlikte şer’iyye sicilleri, vakfiyeler, defterler ve belgeler gibi birinci dereceden güvenilir kaynaklar bazen doğrudan bazen de dolaylı olarak ait ol...
On the ntru public key cryptosystem
Çimen, Canan; Çakçak, Emrah; Department of Cryptography (2008)
NTRU is a public key cryptosystem, which was first introduced in 1996. It is a ring-based cryptosystem and its security relies on the complexity of a well-known lattice problem, i.e. shortest vector problem (SVP). There is no efficient algorithm known to solve SVP exactly in arbitrary high dimensional lattices. However, approximate solutions to SVP can be found by lattice reduction algorithms. LLL is the first polynomial time algorithm that finds reasonable short vectors of a lattice. The best known attacks...
Pax Britannica and the anti-systemic movement of viceroy Mehmet Ali Pasha of Egypt.
Akın, Okyanu; Tayfur, M. Fatih.; Department of International Relations (2019)
The Pax Britannica, as a system, defined the political-economy of the nineteenth century. Throughout this period, the state and the market became increasingly liberal, the “political” and the “economic” became further interdependent, and interests of the dominant Powers were extended throughout the world. Great Britain turned out to be the leading state in this context and, with her ever-increasing power, embarked upon setting the systemic norms. Her strength relied on the will and ability to synthesise ins...
Planning: A Continiuum Of Utopian And Non-Utopian Sensibilities
Barlas, M.Adnan (1992-1-1)
The identification of the origins of the intellectual history as well as the professional practice of planning, either in terms of its conceptual foundations or the chronology of events, takes one back to industrializing Europe and United States of the nineteenth century. In this period one can find both ‘utopian’ and ‘anti-’ or ‘non-’ utopian precursors of professional planning practice and planning theory of the twentieth century. This implies that neither set of precursors is the exclusive impetus behind...
