Abstract

This article aims to present formal governance practices of information technology adapted to the general context of Moroccan universities. The study consists of two main phases: the conceptualization phase and the operationalization phase. During the conceptualization phase, the authors reviewed relevant literature on best practices and their associated frameworks in higher education institutions (HEIs). The results revealed that universities had varying levels of maturity in terms of good practices and often used multiple information system frameworks, which can cause organizational and technical problems. In order to find a solution to this situation, the authors conducted in-depth interviews with chief information officers (CIOs) and university officials from four Moroccan universities during the operationalization phase. These interviews enabled them to propose an effective baseline of best practices and an algorithmic approach to assist managers in choosing between two combinations of frameworks that cover all the mechanisms of the baseline. This solution would enable optimal, agile, and easy-to-implement information technology governance in Moroccan universities while avoiding the multiplicity of frameworks.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence is the current trend in the world, which has taken the opportunity to advance in all its fields, particularly in scientific research. In materials engineering, the results obtained from classic methods such as experimentation, homogenization methods, or finite element methods have become input and validation elements for intelligent models to obtain more effective results in an optimal time frame. In this article, we discuss the use of artificial neural networks to determine the mechanical properties of biocomposites, which are the subject of much research due to the advantages they represent. The properties of these complex materials depend on various parameters, such as the behavior of the constituent materials, the percentage of the mixture, and the manufacturing process. In this work, our goal is to predict how polypropylene behaves elastically when reinforced with 15% various natural fillers. and we will study the impact of bamboo on polypropylene to test and validate our model. By exploiting the results of the Mori-Tanaka model, we were able to generate our dataset, with which we feed our feedforward backpropagation neural network and demonstrate that our biocomposite gained in terms of stiffness, marked by an increase in Young's modulus to 550.3 MPa, with better performance validation and a very good regression coefficient.

Abstract

With the decreasing cost of traffic cameras and rapid advancement in computer vision and artificial intelligence, developing robust traffic surveillance systems has become more feasible and practical. These systems can easily outperform traditional human monitoring systems, as they can collect and analyze traffic data coming from multiple cameras efficiently. A good understanding of this data allows the detection easily road anomalies in real time and in an autonomous way. Therefore, an intelligent traffic system typically consists of three components: object detection, object tracking, and behavior analysis components. In this paper, we present a review of some of the well-known object detection techniques used in traffic video surveillance. The review begins with a brief introduction to the history of object detection and the evolution of its techniques. Then we review separately the two main approaches of detection, which are traditional and deep learning approaches of detection. Finally, an experimental analysis has been conducted to evaluate and compare the performance of some of the recent relevant detection methods in terms of speed and precision, in detecting vehicles in a traffic scenario.
