Seeking for an appropriate design of wind farm (WF) layout constitutes a complex task in a wind energy project. An optimization approach is seriously needed to deal with this complexity, especially with current trend of large WFs area with important number of wind turbines (WTs). The present paper investigates optimization study of realistic offshore WF design layout (horns-rev1). The main objective...
In the next decades, hundreds of autonomous ships (AS) and Conventional ships (CS) will cross the Detroit of Gibraltar. For their autonomous operation, and remote control, these ships need to communicate with each other, with the vessel traffic system (VTS), with the port state control (PSC) and with the shore control centre (SCC). For a sustainable maritime industry, the biggest challenge will be...
The Moroccan Higher Education System has been based until now on actual physical students' attendance to courses and lectures as one of its compulsory features. In this way, students, who, for some reason or another, cannot attend, find themselves at a loss and with no available follow-up means to access, the course or lecture contents delivered in class. At present, given the availability of distance...
We consider the problematic of the evaluation of IT Service Management (ITSM) processes performance in organizations, ITSM processes indicators can assess the performance of that particular indicator only but cannot provide a holistic view of the overall IT department services performance in terms of a unified number. To overcome this challenge we need to combine the key performance indicators (KPIs)...
With the revolutionary development of information technologies and information systems, companies are obliged to face this change by adapting their business processes and using advanced technologies. IT have become the backbone of any organization, they are essential and indispensable for its structural and organizational management. Companies need to exchange, provide information on their information...
Through this contribution, we are trying to propose a methodological approach based on the systemic thinking and decision support systems that will allow us to analyze and evaluate the organizational performance of a risk management unit within Banks. The proposed approach will study and simulate risk management processes while the simulation tool is based on the concept of Artificial Intelligence...
This article presents a multi method simulation based tool, that reflects in details the network structure of automotive supply chain and will be used to support decision making. It allows to examine the complex system behavior considering mutual interactions among nodes and evaluate the upstream and downstream connectivity mechanisms in product and supply chain design. The conceptual models used...
The accelerating pace of globalization is having a profound effect on organizations; organizational transformation appears as a necessity and a major challenge for the organizations. Yet, instead of generating a competitive asset, transformation projects are become a risk for companies (accumulated delays, overrun of the budgets, collaborators tensions). This article focuses on the conceptualization...
Face to increased competition, SMEs see in the information systems a competitive gain, long-term strategy and sometimes an obligation to deal with competition. These companies seek to meet the needs of different users and digital business requirements by offering computer services of good quality. ITIL is recognized as a framework of good practice for the implementation of IT services with a good...
Vehicle Routing System (VRS) is one of the famous hard problems in the world and several extensions of the VRS were developed for many scenarios. Many researches have been done to create a general solution appropriate to several scenarios with limited feedback. Further, the existing proposed solutions are based on static scenarios where the best route are created using existing data and all data are...
The problem which companies want to face is the integration of the applications in an information system (IS) and the interconnection of the system itself with other information systems. The interoperability of IS constitutes, their ability to communicate and to inter-operate following a given model using a common language favoring the sharing of information for better performance and profitability...
Companies are found increasingly confronted with problems related to the integration of applications in an information system (IS), and the interconnection of the system itself with other information systems. One of The model driven engineering's (MDE) objectives is to provide solutions to the difficulties of interoperability between business systems. MDE has also provided several significant improvements...
Expert systems are designed to solve non-regular complex problems using extracted cognitive data and inspiring from the human expertise and its best practices. They are based on the machine performance and its ability to carry out a very large number of complex iterations. The Aircraft Landing Scheduling (ALS) problem has been complex and challenging problem in air traffic control for a long time,...
