    Foreign Direct Investment (Fdi) and Export Relation in Turkey: 1991-2010
    (2011) Temiz, D.; Gökmen, A.
    Foreign direct investment (FDI) is an important element in development of economic power with regard to growth. FDI is an efficient tool to transfer new technologies, managerial skills, knowledge, capital flow and so on. On the other hand, exportation is another means to integrate the economy of a country with that of the world and secure economic growth as well enhancing economic advantages. In this article, we attempt to research the relationship between FDI and export. The article begins with the definition of FDI theory, explains the motives fostering FDI, FDI and Turkey, FDI and export relation theoretically, and concludes with an empirical analysis of FDI and export in Turkey. The empirical research investigates the relationship between export and FDI by using monthly time series data for the Turkish economy over the period from December 1991 to October 2010. The study applies of the following econometric techniques: unit root test, Johansen cointegration test, vector error correction model (VECM), and Granger causality test. The cointegration analysis suggests long-run equilibrium relationship between the examined variables. The results of the Granger causality test showed a causal relationship between these variables. The causality results are consistent with the results reported by the vector error correction model (VECM). © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

    Foreign direct investment & its correlation to economics: The case of Brazil
    (2019) Dinç, Dilek Temiz; Gökmen, Aytaç
    Capital accumulation is the first and foremost important factor to induce economic growth and development in a country. Yet, not every country in the world is bestowed with abundant capital. Thus, in this instance foreign direct investment (FDI) emerges as a good option to supply the necessary amount of capital to countries which are deprived of the necessary capital stock. Moreover, FDI, besides being a catalyst of economic development, is a significant means of transferring technology, knowledge, managerial know-how and constitutes new potentials to create employment opportunities, increase the production volume and enhance the foreign trade balance. Furthermore, the impact of FDI inflow on the economic growth is researched in this paper for Brazil by means of utilizing various econometric methods for the period of 1970–2017. According to the results of this study there is no positive causality between economic growth and FDI inflow in the short-run. Yet, there is a positive and significant causality between FDI inflow and economic growth in the long-run as well as this stems from the fact that investments lead to positive results gradually in the long-term which also means that investments shall be converted into production as much as possible. Moreover, the novelty of this paper is that it is one of the most up-to-date studies to research FDI–economic growth correlation on Brazil in the literature.

    The impact of foreign trade issues on economic growth in some developing countries including Iran and Turkey
    (Routledge, 2017) Temiz Dinç, Dilek; Gökmen, Aytaç; Nakip, Mahir; Madadkhah Azari, Nayier; Azari, Nayier Madadkhah
    The issue of foreign trade and economic growth have been on the economic agenda for centuries. Foreign trade is a facilitator of goods and services exchange in the global marketplace and is an engine of economic growth in a country. Moreover, economic growth is a means to improve the output, employment opportunities, and welfare, which in turn could make a favorable impact on the positive foreign trade balance. Economic growth is also an essential component of country competitiveness in international markets. Yet, the objective of this study is to analyze the correlation between foreign trade and economic growth in some developing countries, including Iran and Turkey, by using econometrics applications (panel co-integration method and E-views software), also resting on credible national and international publications. Thus, it is estimated in the study that foreign trade has a positive impact on economic growth, resource allocation, energy and green energy consumption, human capital development, and physical capital consumption.

    Symmetric and Asymmetric Relationship Between Maritime Transportation and Foreign Trade Volume
    (inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2021) Dinc, Dilek Temiz; Karamelikli, Huseyin
    In this study, the short and the long-run relationship between maritime transportation and foreign trade volume and also the linear and nonlinear characteristics of this relationship were investigated. Linear relations between maritime transportation and foreign trade volume were analysed by the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model, and nonlinear relations were analysed by the nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) model by using monthly data between 2004 and 2018 in Turkey. According to the results, it was revealed that only the short-run asymmetry and long-run symmetry model was statistically valid and that results should be taken into consideration.

    Copyright Protection by Robust Digital Image Watermarking in Unsecured Communication Channels
    (Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science, 2017) Alasafi, L.; Göksu, T.; Albayati, A.
    The transition from analog technologies to digital technologies has increased the ever-growing concern for protection and authentication of digital content and data. Owners of digital content of any type are seeking and exploring new technologies for the protection of copyrighted multimedia content. Multimedia protection has become an issue in recent years, and to deal with this issue, researchers are continuously searching for and exploring new effective and efficient technologies. This thesis study has been prepared in order to increase the invisibility and durability of invisible watermarking by using the multilayer Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) in the frequency plane and embedding two marks into an image for the purpose of authentication and copyright when digital content travels through an unsecured channel. A novel watermarking algorithm has been proposed based on five active positions and on using two marks. In addition to the extraction process, watermarking images will be subjected to a set of attack tests. The evaluation criteria have been the bases of assessing the value of SNR, PNSR, MAE and RMSE for both the watermarking images and the watermarking images after attacks, followed by the invisibility of the watermarking being measured before and after the attacks. Our lab results show high robustness and high quality images obtaining value for both SNR and PNSR. © 2017 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. All rights reserved.

    Seasonality in household demand for meat and fish: Evidence from an urban area
    (Scientific Technical Research Council Turkey-Tubitak, 2005) Fidan, Halil; Klasra, Mushtaq Ahmad
    This paper, using the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS), derives estimates of factors influencing household demand for meat and fish during different seasons. Using primary data obtained from the survey, a system of equations pertaining to budget share, demand elasticities of own price, cross price and expenditure for meat and fish was estimated. The main conclusion is that there are seasonal effects on the consumption of meat and fish. In particular, during the Muslim Festival of Sacrifice the budget share of meat increases. Further, people living in urban areas were not sensitive to price increases except for in anchovy. This study is of importance to policy makers, producers and marketing strategists alike, as this conclusion will help them to design their respective policies to use resources more efficiently
