    Wedding Wear Cluster in Izmir: How Does the Creative Knowledge Ecosystem Self-Operate?
    (LookUs Scientific, 2013) Mengi, Onur; Velibeyoğlu, Koray
    The present research aims to analyze the ways of the creative knowledge ecosystem is being self-operated in a certain environment in order to comprehend how creativity and knowledge flow and exchange are generated within the creative industries framework. Creative knowledge ecosystem refers to all the physical and organizational mechanism of the creative environment which together form a self-sufficient entity. For this study, how firms feed and supply each other, how they survive and sustain their production and distribution processes within such entity thus becomes essential. Therefore, a wedding wear cluster in Izmir, Mimar Kemalettin Fashion District, has been chosen as a case study. The methodology consists of semi-structured interviews with the managers, designers and workers employed in the wedding wear and fashion-linked firms located in the district. The data is collected and processed by means of the DICE method. The findings reveal particular ecosystem characteristics within the wedding wear cluster, and present its current organizational conditions regarding the ecosystem major components; distribution, interaction, competition, and evolution.

    A Decision Support System for Assessment of Land-Use Changes, the Case of Izmir
    (LookUs Scientific, 2013) Yazdani, Hamidreza; Saygın, Ömür
    Land-Use changes and their possible impacts over time as consequences of proposed urban developments are one of main concerns of planners in planning process. Understanding the impact of these changes on environment is a crucial issue in the planning approach aims to achieve the sustainable urban development. A Planning support system (PSS) is mainly based on collecting, monitoring, analysing data and evaluating the impacts of alternative planning scenarios using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) This paper offers an approach to evaluate the interoperability of a model based on the data sets to be explored. Considering the integration of satellite imagery, field survey and plans where adequate local data set is missing and modifying the model to evaluate best represented data increase reliability of a model. For this propose this study modifies "ESRI Smart Land-Use model (LUCIS)" for the data represented region meanwhile integrates the data sets for the most accurate representation This model based on best presented data provides crucial decision guidelines for decision makers in testing development scenarios. Different PSS's have different algorithms and underlying assumptions. Consequently Comparing results of several PSS (ie. CommunityViz, What-If) for the same purpose could be more reliable than testing a single model in a project Further research should be conducted via web-based monitoring system that would improve collaboration of different interest groups.

    Information and Communication Technology Sector Strategy Map of Izmir
    (LookUs Scientific, 2013) Tuğlular, Tuğkan; Tekir, Selma; Velibeyoğlu, Koray
    This study aims to understand current dynamics of the Izmir's ICT sector by looking at its dynamics and mapping the spatial distribution of the firms. It is based on series of analysis produced for Izmir Development Agency in 2012 within the frame of preparation of 2014-2023 Izmir Regional Development Plan. It conducts a Delphi survey to support situation knowledge as well as trend prediction for the next 10 years' period. Furthermore, gap analysis is performed to measure the margin between the current situation of the ICT sector and future trends predicted by experts. The study also maps Izmir's ICT sector's location preferences based on Izmir Chamber of Commerce's publicly available web-based database. It illustrated that ICT sector's trend largely based on centripetal and spontaneously developed clusters placed in the central part of the city. On the other hand, planned technology regions and science parks are relatively immature and need to be developed. Within the light of this dichotomy this study proposes a strategy map to Izmir's ICT sector.
