The objective of this article is to highlight the relationship between the integration of sustainable development practices in Moroccan Small and Medium Enterprises (Smes) and the challenge sought by managers in order to ensure competitiveness and sustainability. Indeed, present-day Smes are operating in a world where economic, social, societal or environmental constraints are constantly evolving.…

The study aims to demonstrate how the use of the design process can align a brand’s strategy with the interests of its target audience through a digital product based on a case study. Currently, Lexus internal studies show that there is a possibility to meet the needs of new audiences, beyond the traditional ones (men,…

The most common non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases and cancer, are a problem in global and national growth. The World Health Organization considers it a priority to study the specific causes of these diseases for trend monitoring. The aim of this paper is to identify a hierarchy of clusters of Portuguese mortality by non-communicable…

Increased recycling of PVC has become a requirement in industrial and scientific research level. Several studies will be realized. To confirm and check the recycled materials performance, it will be important to go through numerical modeling, which consists not only in validating the results of the experiments, but also in predicting what happens when the…

ECG analysis is commonly used by medical practitioners and cardiologists for monitoring cardiac health. A high-performance automatic ECG classification system is a challenging area because there is difficulty in detecting and clustering various waveforms in the signal, especially in the manual analysis of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. In this paper, an accurate (ECG) classification and monitoring…

A rarefied gas flow is modeled inside two cases of triangular lid-driven microcavity using single (SRT) and multi-relaxation time (MRT) lattice Boltzmann approaches. In the first one, the right angle is in the top-left corner and the upper wall moves with positive horizontal velocity. However, in the second case, the right angle is in the…

In the last decade, deep learning(DL) has witnessed excellent performances on a variety of problems, including speech recognition, object recognition, detection, and natural language processing (NLP) among many others. Of these applications, one common challenge is to obtain ideal parameters during the training of the deep neural networks (DNN). These typical parameters are obtained by…

Previous study of butterfly life-cycle algorithms (BLCA) has been done to construct a novel algorithm by impersonating the life-cycle of a real butterfly. The algorithm was tested in measuring the company’s growth performance using a balanced scorecard (BSC) strategic planning model. This paper is proposed to continue the previous study by expanding the concept in…

This study aims to provide a systematic and complete knowledge map for researchers in the field of virtual academic communities (VACs) and to help them quickly understand the key knowledge, evolution trends and research frontiers. This paper adopts the bibliometric method, with the help of bibliometric analysis software Citespace and VOSviewer quantitative analyze the retrieved…

The pre-reason of the Smolensk catastrophe was a dense fog. The pilots took three trials to find the proper way to airfield. Each case the tower communicated: you are on the curse and path. Pilots, however, resigned. In third critical trial the co-pilot prolonged the response second ring to 8 seconds and the engines could…

The paper is devoted to the presentation of a new methodological approach (new philosophy) to the formulation and solution of directed search and synthesis of electromechanical objects for a given function problems. The object under the study is a class of electrical machines and electromechanical devices which operation is carried out with a variable structure…

Age and growth are two essential rice biophysics parameters used to determine the health parameters and production rate. The spatial data of both parameters can utilize remote sensing technology, which in turn makes use of several vegetation indices to achieve accurate estimation. However, due to the rapid changes in rice plants’ characteristics, it is essential…

A distribution company in Mexico covers the travel expenses for 21 sales representatives. Currently, the routes they follow are not established clearly, which can lead to high costs in this subject. A reduction of such cost is sought after, by optimizing the routes for each one of them. The following research finds an improvement on…

Nigerian power utility companies particularly the distribution and generation aspects were recently in the process of national power reform converted from public to private service by privatization. Prior to these development, power utility companies’ performance is low due to poor operational style that leads to inadequate revenue generation. Thus, the task before the privatized companies…

The Music Composition Library of the great composers constitutes an intellectual heritage. This article introduces an algorithm of artificial Oriental composing music based on the descriptors determined on a large learning base to automatically write Oriental music as the logic identical to any composer. Musical words are called a grammatical alphabet. Each word derived is…

In this article, we concentrate on the use of a metaheuristic technique based on an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) for determining the optimal geometrical parameters of spiral inductors for RF circuits. For this purpose, we have opted for an optimization procedure through an enhanced Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. The proposed tool allows the design of optimized…

Online transportation in Indonesia is a new trend of transportation that is currently used among the lower to upper society. The change in behavior began in 2011 and is growing to this day, The comments that are growing on social media are very important for the online transportation company the negative comments lower the level…

The accurate identification and characterization of microbiological species is a must that allows us to design engineered pharmacology to tackle down the diversity of diseases derived of them. This paper presents a study about the usage of both classical dynamical and electrodynamics in conjunction to the Feynman’s path integral to describe as well as identify…

The research will explore the challenges of using local water sources inside the city for a self-sufficient urban water supply by developed a system dynamics model. This study aims to evaluate and understand the Pesanggrahan River appropriateness as a raw drinking water source through a conceptual model that can accurately represent the interactions between the…

This study aims to analyze a person’s intention in using self-service technology (SST) services during the pandemic COVID-19. Where this time, raising problems one of the social distancing that affects a service provided, especially on services that use technology that applies SST. This study develops from previous research where the customer has satisfaction in using…

This paper provides an overview of Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) data with respect on NATO standards and recommendations; further presents methods, tools, and experiences in ISR data processing in military operations. The steps of the Intelligence cycle and disciplines Business Intelligence (BI), Data Warehousing, Data Mining, and Big Data are presented in the introduction.…

A data analytic approach presented in this work covers both data descriptive and predictive modeling with two main objectives: (1) discovering factors related to longevity of populations in the two most populated nations, China and India, and (2) generating life expectancy predictive models for both countries. Descriptive modeling methods to explore major environmental and economic…

The phenomenon of magnetic fields is affected depending on the polarity, the positive and negative poles will give a response of attraction and repulsion that can be easily observed. Being also important as an educational element where the theory materializes and is observed, which enriches all science. The objective of this work is to create…

To cultivate creative talent, ways to learn creative problem-solving skills is needed, and one of them is programming.
