Paris Konferansı’nda Mezopotamya

DergiPark: 326441trakyasobedWorld War I had come to an end with being signed of Mondros Armistice and Paris Peace Conference had gathered. While Wilson, the President of United States, wanted to make the Conference come true according to the principles which he suggested and were called as ‘’Fourteen Points’’, France and England weren’t ready to admit the principles without changing them. Furthermore, England had had got different ideas about Mesopotamia at the Paris Peace Conference. In this article, our study took shape in the light of the report which was prepared for Lord Curzon by Sir Erle Richards and presented the basic lines of politics which was followed by England for the area of Mesapotamia, the necessity of not giving of these lands to Turkey, the occupation of Mesopotamia by England Army, the special rights of England on Mesopotamia, the promises of England Administration on the next administration, the benefits of England Administration in Mesopotamia, Kurdish matterBirinci Dünya Savaşı, Mondros Mütarekesi’nin imzalanmasıyla bitmiş ve Paris Barış Konferansı toplanmıştır. Konferansa katılan ABD Başkanı Wilson kendisinin ortaya attığı ve On Dört Nokta olarak anılan ilkeler çerçevesinde Konferansın gerçeklemesini isterken Fransa ve İngiltere 14 noktayı değiştirmeden kabul etmeye henüz hazır değildiler. Ayrıca Paris konferansında İngiltere’nin Mezopotamya için ayrı düşünceleri bulunmaktadır. Bu makalede Mezopotamya bölgesi için Lord Curzan’a, Sir Erle Richards tarafından hazırlanan ve İngiltere’nin Konferansta Mezopotamya bölgesi için izlediği politikanın temel hatlarını sunan rapor ışığında çalışmamız şekillenmiştir. Söz konusu belge, Mezopotamya toprakları, bu toprakların Türkiye’ye verilmemesi gerektiği, İngiliz kuvvetlerinin Mezopotamya’yı işgali, İngiltere’nin Mezopotamya ile ilgili özel hakları, İngiliz hükümetinin gelecek hükümetle ilgili vaatleri, İngiliz hükümetinin Mezopotamya’daki çıkarları, Kürt sorunu gibi başlıklarda incelenebili

British - Kurdish Relations During the World War I

DergiPark: 326413trakyasobedDuring the World War I, British troops entered the Ottaman lands including the Khanikin. British government already had relationship with Sheik Mahmut, called as the leader of ‘’Suleymanian’’, at that time. But British government had started to show more importance to this area when they learnt that Kurdish chiefs in Kifri, Talabani family and Seyit Ahmet – religious leader of the area – are British supporter. With the letter to British government sent by Sheik Mahmut for Kurdistan, British government had sent Noel – the experienced major – to Southern Kurdistan. Furthermore, British government’s paying attention on Armenians’ conditions had caused to create the relationships between British, Kurds and ArmeniansBirinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında İngilizler Khanikin’in de dahil olmak üzere Osmanlı topraklarına girmişlerdir. İngilizlerin, Süleymaniye şehrinin lideri sayıların Şeyh Mahmut ile bu dönemde zaten ilişkileri bulunmaktadır. Ancak İngilizler, Kifri bölgesindeki Kürt reislerinin, Talabani ailesinin ve bölgenin dini lideri Seyit Ahmet’in İngiliz taraftarı olduğunu öğrenince bölgeye daha çok önem göstermeye başlamışlardır. Buna Şeyh Mahmut’un İngiliz Hükümetine Kürdistan için gönderdiği mektupta eklenince İngilizler bölgede tecrübesi olan Binbaşı Noel’i Güney Kürdistan’a göndermiştir. Ayrıca İngilizlerin Ermenilerin durumuyla da yakından ilgilenmeye başlamaları bölgede İngiliz, Kürt ve Ermeniler arasında ilişkilerin doğmasına neden olmuştu

Detection and prevention of malicious of relational database management systems (RDBMS)

Insider attack is formsthe biggest threat against database management systems. Although many mechanisms have been developed to detect and prevent the misuse activities on the database systems, such as authorized modification on the approved records by the authorized users in malicious intent. However, thesemechanisms still have some limitations in detecting insider attacks. This study proposes a mechanism called dependency mechanism (DM) by utilizing the dependency relationship among database attributes to detect and prevent the authorized modification on approved database records, which have been already used, approved and closed by the system. The proposed mechanism is based on high and low dependency among attributes(columns). These dependencies based on the high and low repetition and usage of the attribute in the database. When the DM recognizes and detects any authorized modification on the approved records, it considers it as a malicious. The results of proposed mechanism DM showed high ability to detect and prevent the malicious modification on the approved records. Flag Based Mechanism (FBM) is considered as a baseline for this study. The evaluation parameter is a detection rate, by which the accuracy of the proposed mechanism is evaluated and compared to the FBM technique

Towards adapting metamodeling approach for the mobile forensics investigation domain

Mobile phones have become quite important tools in the modern world. The forensics field heavily relies on knowledge as an important resource. Due to the ongoing changes in digital technology, the power of knowledge enables innovation and assists in establishing proper standards and procedures. As such, it is necessary to establish a relationship between the information derived from knowledge to form new concepts and ideas. Knowledge in mobile forensics is scattered and huge. Hence, this leads to lack of knowledge management in mobile forensics. In addition, lead to complexity of investigation for new investigators, ambiguity in concepts and terminologies of mobile forensics domain and waste time to understand mobile forensics domain. Therefore, mobile forensics investigators are quite suffering with forensics investigation processes in their domain. This paper will develop a new approach for mobile forensics domain which is based on metamodeling. This approach contributes to unify common concepts of mobile forensics. It also provides many benefits which include simplifying the investigation process and guide investigations team, capture and reuse specialized forensic knowledge and support training and knowledge management activities. Furthermore, it reduces complexity and ambiguity in mobile forensic domai Towards Adapting Metamodeling approach for the Mobile Forensics Investigation Domain

Simplified database forensic investigation using metamodeling approach

Database Forensic Investigation (DBFI) domain is a significant field used to identify, collect, preserve, reconstruct, analyze and document database incidents. However, it is a heterogeneous, complex, and ambiguous domain due to the variety and multidimensional nature of database systems. Numerous specific DBFI models and frameworks have been proposed to solve specific database scenarios but there is a lack of structured and unified frameworks to facilitate managing, sharing and reusing of DBFI tasks and activities. Thus, this research developed a DBFI Metamodel (DBFIM) to structure and organize DBFI domain. A Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM) to provide a logical, testable and communicable metamodel was applied in this study. In this methodology, the steps included problem identification, define objectives, design and development, demonstration and evaluation, and communication. The outcome of this study is a DBFIM developed for structuring and organizing DBFI domain knowledge that facilitates the managing, sharing and reusing of DBFI domain knowledge among domain practitioners. DBFIM identifies, recognizes, extracts and matches different DBFI processes, concepts, activities, and tasks from different DBFI models into a developed metamodel, thus, allowing domain practitioners to derive/instantiate solution models easily. The DBFIM was validated using qualitative techniques: comparison against other models; face validity (domain experts); and case study. Comparisons against other models and face validity were applied to ensure completeness, logicalness, and usefulness of DBFIM against other DBFI domain models. Following this, two case studies were selected and implemented to demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the DBFIM in the DBFI domain using a DBFIM Prototype (DBFIMP). The results showed that DBFIMP allowed domain practitioners to create their solution models easily based on their requirements

Service-oriented design measurement and theoretical validation

As software systems become more and more complex over time, software quality accordingly becomes increasingly important. Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) paradigm is one of the established paradigms used for building and developing flexible, reusable, rapid and low cost software products. Consequently, the use of SOC to develop software systems is increasing. Software quality measurement has considerable importance in the context of SOC since it determines how the quality requirements for composite service should be achieved. As a result, several quality metrics for composite service design were proposed. However, these metrics were constructed based on previous development approaches, give insufficient focus and need modification to be applied to service-oriented systems. Furthermore, the existing metrics do not consider the composite service as building blocks and also they do not consider the indirect relationships. In this paper, a quality measurement for composite service-oriented design is proposed, with the aim of increasing reusability and decreasing the complexity of design. The paper begins with proposing a set of metrics to measure the quality of composite service design. Then, the proposed metrics are validated theoretically to check its usability and applicability for composite service. The results show that the proposed metrics are able to measure the quality of composite service design

Comparative study of efficacy of prepartum injection of multivitamins and selenium- vitamin E (ά-tocopherol)-combination on post-partum clinical findings, serum steroids, calf and placental weights, and milk antioxidant biomarkers changes in female dromed

Background: All concentrates given to camels were enriched in selenium (Se) in selenite form. The impacts of Se supplementation on lactating female health, milk, and Se/antioxidant statuses received no research interest. Aim: The current study aimed to compare the efficacy of long-term prepartum injection of Se-vitamin E combination and multivitamins on maternal post-calving clinical findings, serum steroid hormones, milk antioxidants, milk somatic cell count (SCC) status, calf body weight, placental weight (PW), and vaginal wash isolates. Methods: From three equal groups of postpartum she-camels (n = 45), one group received no treatment and served as control group (Cont.; n = 15). For 3 months prepartum, one group had received a combination of vitamin E (ά-tocopherol) and Se (VitE-Se-; n = 15), and the third one received multivitamins (Multi-; n = 15). All dams were subjected to clinical and laboratory assays including milk total antioxidant capacity (TAC), Se, vitamin E, and milk SCC on Days 14, 21, and 28 post-calving. Steroid hormones and calf and PW were estimated at birth (Day 0). Results: The study reported higher efficacy of Se-vitamin E combination comparing with that of multivitamins as a long-term prepartum injection in recently calved she-camels that was reflected through significant changes in steroids hormones (Drop), i.e., progesterone (P4) and estradiol (E2), the milk antioxidant biomarkers (Elevation), i.e., TAC, Se, vitamin E, and milk SCCs (Reduction). Both two therapeutic regimens had a more powerful effect that the control one. Conclusion: The applied therapeutic supplements had no significant effect on clinical and hematological changes as well as calves’ body weights and PWs. Body weights were significantly higher in male camel calves than those of female calves either in Cont., VitE-Se-, or Multi-

THE RISING SCOURGE OF MENTAL ILLNESS AND INFODEMIC: AN OUTCOME OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND COVID-19

COVID-19 was accompanied with the increasing broadcast of fake news, misinformation and excessive information via social media platforms. This phenomenon has been termed “infodemic”, to describe an overwhelming amount of mostly fake, false or inaccurate information which spreads rapidly and impacts negatively on achieving a solution. It would therefore be desirable to use a cautious approach which utilizes culturally sensitive and country specific measures to deal with this occurrence. We aim to raise awareness, likewise draw the attention of global scientific community on this topic of public and mental health concern and it calls for further comments on this issue

Living on the Extreme Margin: Social Exclusion of the Transgender Population (Hijra) in Bangladesh

The transgender people (hijra), who claim to be neither male nor female, are socially excluded in Bangladesh. This paper describes social exclusion of hijra [The term is used in this abstract both in singular and plural sense] focusing on the pathway between exclusion and sexual health. In an ethnographic study, 50 in-depth interviews with hijra, 20 key-informant interviews, and 10 focus-group discussions (FGDs), along with extensive field observations, were conducted. The findings revealed that hijra are located at the extreme margin of exclusion having no sociopolitical space where a hijra can lead life of a human being with dignity. Their deprivations are grounded in non-recognition as a separate gendered human being beyond the male-female dichotomy. Being outside this norm has prevented them from positioning themselves in greater society with human potential and security. They are physically, verbally, and sexually abused. Extreme social exclusion diminishes self-esteem and sense of social responsibility. Before safer sex interventions can be effective in a broader scale, hijra need to be recognized as having a space on society's gender continuum. Hijra, as the citizens of Bangladesh and part of society's diversity, have gender, sexual and citizenship rights, that need to be protected
