	abstract = {Motivation: Asthma is a complex heterogeneous disease resulting from intricate interactions between genetic and non-genetic factors related to environmental and psychosocial aspects. Discovery of such interactions can provide insights into the pathophysiology and etiology of asthma. In this paper, we propose an asthma knowledge graph (KG) built using a hybrid methodology for graph-based modeling of asthma complexity with a focus on environmental interactions. Using a heterogeneous set of public sources, we construct a genetic and pharmacogenetic asthma knowledge graph. The construction of this KG allowed us to shed more light on the lack of curated resources focused on environmental influences related to asthma. To remedy the lack of environmental data in our KG, we exploit the biomedical literature using state-of-the-art natural language processing and construct the first Asthma{\textendash}Environment interaction catalog incorporating a continuously updated ensemble of environmental, psychological, nutritional and socio-economic influences. The catalog{\textquoteright}s most substantiated results are then integrated into the KG. Results: The resulting environmentally rich knowledge graph {\textquotedblright}AsthmaKGxE{\textquotedblright} aims to provide a resource for several potential applications of artificial intelligence and allows for a multi-perspective study of asthma. Our insight extraction results indicate that stress is the most frequent asthma association in the corpus, followed by allergens and obesity. We contend that studying asthma{\textendash}environment interactions in more depth holds the key to curbing the complexity and heterogeneity of asthma. Availability: A user interface to browse and download the extracted catalog as well as the KG are available at http://asthmakgxe.moreair.info/.

	abstract = {Digital Transformation has become an imperative for most organizations. It is a journey that has been induced by the accelerated pace of technological developments (Data, Cloud, IA, ML, RPA, Agility, {\textellipsis}). The integration of these technologies in almost every industry has fundamentally changed the operational processes of companies. It impacts business levels, starting with business models and ending with the customer journey. The adoption of these technologies has also offered an opportunity for these companies to grow, increase agility, strengthen governance models by eliminating traditional silos and ensure better knowledge and proximity to the customer. This theme, "Digital transformation", has been very widely covered in recent years, it has aroused great interest in research both in academia and in practice and has been the subject of several studies. This is a very complex subject and many question marks remain, particularly on the definition of digital transformation, we have identified more than 100 definitions spread over time and between sectors of activity. To approach it properly, it is essential to define or describe the Digital Transformation well first. The main objective of this article is to give a general review of the systematic literature on Digital Transformation, to bring together the different definitions given and to propose a metamodel to explain this notion and show the interactions between the different concepts concerned by this concept. Through this metamodel, we will show the complexity of this transformation and the need to use a Framework for the management of the Digital Transformation. {\textcopyright} 2022 CURRAN-CONFERENCE.

Working fluid flows along 82 square minichannels of 2 mm side and 11 cm length, manufactured on stainless-steel. Hot fluid flows downward through the channels and two cases are evaluated: natural and forced air convection. In the last case, ambient air flows in the upward direction. Two additional operating parameters are modified: the inlet fluid temperature, between 34.8 and 75.4 {\textdegree}C and the fluid mass flow rate, in the range from 5.7 to 29.1 kg/h. Inlet and outlet temperature and pressure for the fluid and ambient temperature are measured, while the air velocity is kept constant at 0.75 m/s. Results obtained for the approach temperature, pressure drops, heat transferred and heat transfer coefficients for the air-cooled subcooler are provided. Correlations are derived to predict the heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop of the subcooler. Integration of the air-cooled subcooler in a single-effect absorption cooling system is evaluated, showing a notable increase in the cooling power mainly in the case of using forced air flow. {\textcopyright} 2022},

	abstract = {With the booming growth of advanced digital technologies, it has become possible for users as well as distributors of energy to obtain detailed and timely information about the electricity consumption of households. These technologies can also be used to forecast the household{\textquoteright}s electricity consumption (a.k.a. the load). In this paper, Variational Mode Decomposition and deep learning techniques are investigated as a way to improve the accuracy of the load forecasting problem. Although this problem has been studied in the literature, selecting an appropriate decomposition level and a deep learning technique providing better forecasting performance have garnered comparatively less attention. This study bridges this gap by studying the effect of six decomposition levels and five distinct deep learning networks. The raw load profiles are first decomposed into intrinsic mode functions using the Variational Mode Decomposition in order to mitigate their non-stationary aspect. Then, day, hour, and past electricity consumption data are fed as a three-dimensional input sequence to a four-level Wavelet Decomposition Network model. Finally, the forecast sequences related to the different intrinsic mode functions are combined to form the aggregate forecast sequence. The proposed method was assessed using load profiles of five Moroccan households from the Moroccan buildings{\textquoteright} electricity consumption dataset (MORED) and was benchmarked against state-of-the-art time-series models and a baseline persistence model. {\textcopyright} 2022 Elsevier Ltd},

	abstract = {Air pollution exposure has become ubiquitous and is increasingly detrimental to human health. Small Particulate matter (PM) is one of the most harmful forms of air pollution. It can easily infiltrate the lungs and trigger several respiratory diseases, especially in vulnerable populations such as children and elderly people. In this work, we start by leveraging a retrospective study of 416 children suffering from respiratory diseases. The study revealed that asthma prevalence was the most common among several respiratory diseases, and that most patients suffering from those diseases live in areas of high traffic, noise, and greenness. This paved the way to the construction of the MOREAIR dataset by combining feature abstraction and micro-level scale data collection. Unlike existing data sets, MOREAIR is rich in context-specific components, as it includes 52 temporal or geographical features, in addition to air-quality measurements. The use of Random Forest uncovered the most important features for the understanding of air-quality distribution in Moroccan urban areas. By linking the medical data and the MOREAIR dataset, we observed that the patients included in the medical study come mostly from neighborhoods that are characterized by either high average or high variations of pollution levels. {\textcopyright} 2022 by the authors.

	abstract = {Nowadays, electric vehicles (EV) are increasingly penetrating the transportation roads in most countries worldwide. Many efforts are oriented toward the deployment of the EVs infrastructures, including those dedicated to intelligent transportation and electro-mobility as well. For instance, many Moroccan organizations are collaborating to deploy charging stations in mostly all Moroccan cities. Furthermore, in Morocco, EVs are tax-free, and their users can charge for free their vehicles in any station. However, customers are still worried by the driving range of EVs. For instance, a new driving style is needed to increase the driving range of their EV, which is not easy in most cases. Therefore, the need for a companion system that helps in adopting a suitable driving style arise. The driving range depends mainly on the battery{\textquoteright}s capacity. Hence, knowing in advance the battery{\textquoteright}s state-of-charge (SoC) could help in computing the remaining driving range. In this paper, a battery SoC forecasting method is introduced and tested in a real case scenario on Rabat-Sal{\'e}-K{\'e}nitra urban roads using a Twizy EV. Results show that this method is able to forecast the SoC up to 180 s ahead with minimal errors and low computational overhead, making it more suitable for deployment in in-vehicle embedded systems. {\textcopyright} 2022 by the authors.},

In this paper, we analyze the physical layer security (PLS) of a downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network through an IRS intended for assisting the wireless transmission, taking into account the external and internal eavesdropping scenarios. Considering the hardware limitations, a 1-bit coding scheme is utilized to investigate the secrecy performance of the IRS-aided NOMA (IRS-NOMA) network. Exact and asymptotic expressions in terms of the secrecy outage probability (SOP) and the effective secrecy throughput (EST) are presented, which are in consideration of the imperfect successive interference cancellation (ipSIC) and perfect SIC (pSIC). Based on the analytical results, the secrecy diversity orders are related to the number of reflecting elements and EST ceilings are observed in the high SNR regime. Monte Carlo simulations are presented to corroborate the correctness of the analyses and illustrate that the IRS-NOMA scheme is superior in the secrecy outage performance to the IRS-aided orthogonal multiple access scheme. In addition, the SOP performance enhancement through the increased number of reflecting elements and the improvement of EST through proper target secrecy rate are also evidenced by the simulations. {\textcopyright} 1967-2012 IEEE.},

As a case study, the MPC algorithm was deployed for control of a standalone ventilation system (VS). The objective is to maintain the indoor Carbon Dioxide (CO2) concentration at the standard comfort range while enhancing energy efficiency in the building. The proposed framework has been tested and deployed in a real-case scenario of the EEBLab test site. The MPC controller has been implemented on MATLAB/Simulink and deployed in a Raspberry Pi (RPi) hardware. Contextual data are collected using the deployed IoT/big data platform and injected into the MPC and LSTM machine learning models. Occupants{\textquoteright} numbers were first forecasted and then sent to the MPC to predict the optimal ventilation flow rates. The performance of the MPC control over the HIL framework has been assessed and compared to an ON/OFF strategy.

	abstract = {Data breaches have begun to take on new dimensions and their prediction is becoming of great importance to organizations. Prior work has addressed this issue mainly from a technical perspective and neglected other interfering aspects such as the social media dimension. To fill this gap, we propose a STRisk predictive system where we expand the scope of the prediction task by bringing into play the social media dimension. We study over 3800 US organizations including both victim and non-victim organizations. For each organization, we design a profile composed of a variety of externally measured technical indicators and social factors. In addition, to account for unreported incidents, we consider the non-victim sample to be noisy and propose a noise correction approach to correct mislabeled organizations. We then build several machine learning models to predict whether an organization is exposed to experience a hacking breach. By exploiting both technical and social features, we achieve an Area Under Curve (AUC) score exceeding 98\%, which is 12\% higher than the AUC achieved using only technical features. Furthermore, our feature importance analysis reveals that open ports and expired certificates are the best technical predictors, while spreadability and agreeability are the best social predictors.

	abstract = {{Background and objective: This paper presents an empirical study of a gamified mobile-based assessment approach that can be used to engage students and improve their educational performance. Method: A gamified audience response system called G-SIDRA was employed. Three gamification elements were used to motivate students in classroom activities: badges for achievements to increase engagement, points to indicate progression and performance in the subject and ranking for promoting competitiveness. A total of 90 medical students in a General and Descriptive Anatomy of the Locomotor System course were taught using G-SIDRA in the academic year 2019/2020. Smart bracelets were configured to collect heart rate measurements from 30 students with the aim of evaluating the impact of the gamification elements. The control group consisted of a sample of 110 students enrolled on the same course in the academic year 2016/2017 using non-gamified SIDRA. Results: Statistically significant differences were found between multiple choice questions (MCQ) scores obtained by using SIDRA and G-SIDRA in the four experiments (U = 1.621,50, p < 0,01 for Exp1; U = 1.950,00, p < 0,01 for Exp2; U = 955,00, p < 0,01 for Exp3; U = 2.335,00, p < 0,01 for Exp4). In the students{\textquoteright} final exam grades, statistically significant differences between students that used G-SIDRA as opposed to SIDRA (T(157) = 3.992; p = 0.044) were obtained. Concerning gamification elements, statistically significantly differences were found in comparing the pulse increases after and before the badge event in the four experiments (U = 2.484,00},

	abstract = {Land use and land cover (LULC) mapping are of paramount importance to monitor and understand the structure and dynamics of the Earth system. One of the most promising ways to create accurate global LULC maps is by building good quality state-of-the-art machine learning models. Building such models requires large and global datasets of annotated time series of satellite images, which are not available yet. This paper presents TimeSpec4LULC 10.5281/zenodo.5913554;Currency sign, a smart open-source global dataset of multispectral time series for 29 LULC classes ready to train machine learning models. TimeSpec4LULC was built based on the seven spectral bands of the MODIS sensors at 500gh{\texteuro}{\textasciimacron}m resolution, from 2000 to 2021, and was annotated using spatial-temporal agreement across the 15 global LULC products available in Google Earth Engine (GEE). The 22-year monthly time series of the seven bands were created globally by (1) applying different spatial-temporal quality assessment filters on MODIS Terra and Aqua satellites; (2) aggregating their original 8gh{\texteuro}{\textasciimacron}d temporal granularity into monthly composites; (3) merging Terragh{\texteuro}{\textasciimacron}+gh{\texteuro}{\textasciimacron}Aqua data into a combined time series; and (4) extracting, at the pixel level, 6gh{\texteuro}{\textasciimacron}076gh{\texteuro}{\textasciimacron}531 time series of size 262 for the seven bands along with a set of metadata: geographic coordinates, country and departmental divisions, spatial-temporal consistency across LULC products, temporal data availability, and the global human modification index. A balanced subset of the original dataset was also provided by selecting 1000 evenly distributed samples from each class such that they are representative of the entire globe. To assess the annotation quality of the dataset, a sample of pixels, evenly distributed around the world from each LULC class, was selected and validated by experts using very high resolution images from both Google Earth and Bing Maps imagery. This smartly, pre-processed, and annotated dataset is targeted towards scientific users interested in developing various machine learning models, including deep learning networks, to perform global LULC mapping. {\textcopyright} 2022 Rohaifa Khaldi et al.},

This new discipline results from the convergence of powerful, small and affordable computing devices with networking technologies that connect them all together. Thus, ubiquitous computing has brought a new generation of service-oriented architectures (SOA) based on context-aware services. These architectures provide users with personalised and adapted behaviours by composing multiple services according to their contexts. In this context, the objective of this paper is to propose an approach for context-aware semantic-based services composition. Our contributions are built around following axes: 1) a semantic-based context modelling and context-aware semantic composite service specification; 2) an architecture for context-aware semantic-based services composition using artificial intelligence planning; 3) an intelligent mechanism based on reinforcement learning for context-aware selection in order to deal with dynamicity and uncertain character of modern ubiquitous environment.

	abstract = {Network scanning is one of the first steps in gathering information about a target before launching attacks. It is used to scan for vulnerable devices and exposed services in order to exploit them. Such exploits can result in data breaches or network disruption, which can be very costly for organizations. There are many factors, including technical and non-technical, affecting the volume of scanning activities. In this paper, we study the impact of vulnerability disclosure on the volume of scans over time and propose a machine learning-based approach to predict this impact. We conducted a comprehensive data collection of network scans from two network telescopes hosted in different countries, as well as the disclosed vulnerabilities from 2014 to 2019. We then designed a set of features to characterize the disclosed vulnerabilities and used several classifiers to predict whether a vulnerability will impact the volume of daily scans. The resulting classifier achieves over 85\% accuracy in predicting the impact. In addition, we performed an analysis of the key characteristics of vulnerabilities that directly affect scanning activities. Our findings show that this approach is able to classify vulnerabilities that have an impact on network scans. The implementation of our model and validation tests proved the efficiency of the selected features, as well as the robustness of our model to classify vulnerabilities{\textquoteright} impact on scans. {\textcopyright} 2021 Elsevier Ltd},

We describe how the raw data is collected and then compute the average electromagnetic field power. We then compensate for the non-linearity of the amplifier and the antenna gain to get the corrected electromagnetic field power measurements. We use these measurements to estimate the incident power density which is the metric that we use to evaluate the electro-smog.

	abstract = {The prevalence rate for childhood asthma and its associated risk factors vary significantly across countries and regions. In the case of Morocco, the scarcity of available medical data makes scientific research on diseases such as asthma very challenging. In this paper, we build machine learning models to predict the occurrence of childhood asthma using data from a prospective study of 202 children with and without asthma. The association between different factors and asthma diagnosis is first assessed using a Chi-squared test. Then, predictive models such as logistic regression analysis, decision trees, random forest and support vector machine are used to explore the relationship between childhood asthma and the various risk factors. First, data were pre-processed using a Chi-squared feature selection, 19 out of the 36 factors were found to be significantly associated (p-value < 0.05) with childhood asthma; these include: history of atopic diseases in the family, presence of mites, cold air, strong odors and mold in the child{\textquoteright}s environment, mode of birth, breastfeeding and early life habits and exposures. For asthma prediction, random forest yielded the best predictive performance (accuracy = 84.9\%), followed by logistic regression (accuracy = 82.57\%), support vector machine (accuracy = 82.5\%) and decision trees (accuracy = 75.19\%). The decision tree model has the advantage of being easily interpreted. This study identified important maternal and prenatal risk factors for childhood asthma, the majority of which are avoidable. Appropriate steps are needed to raise awareness about the prenatal risk factors. {\textcopyright} 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.},

	abstract = {The climate of Houston, classified as a humid subtropical climate with tropical influences, makes the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems the largest electricity consumers in buildings. HVAC systems in commercial buildings are usually operated by a centralized control system and/or an energy management system based on a fixed schedule and scheduled control of a zone setpoint, which is not appropriate for many buildings with changing occupancy rates. Lately, as part of energy efficiency analysis, attention has focused on collecting and analyzing smart meters and building-related data, as well as applying supervised learning techniques, to propose new strategies to operate HVAC systems and reduce energy consumption. On the other hand, unsupervised learning techniques have been used to study the consumption information and profile characterization of different buildings after cluster analysis is performed. This paper adopts a different approach by revealing the power of unsupervised learning to cluster data and unveiling hidden patterns. In this study, we also identify energy inefficiencies after exploring the cluster results of a single building{\textquoteright}s HVAC consumption data and building usage data as part of the energy efficiency analysis. Time series analysis and the K-means clustering algorithm are successfully applied to identify new energy-saving opportunities in a highly efficient office building located in the Houston area (TX, USA). The paper uses 1-year data from a highly efficient Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED)-, Energy Star-, and Net Zero-certified building, showing a potential energy savings of 6\% using the K-means algorithm. The results show that clustering is instrumental in helping building managers identify potential additional energy savings. {\textcopyright} 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.},

Questions about how air pollution evolves spatially are also still unsolved. Many air quality monitoring stations are deployed in several countries to give insight about air quality. However, it is quite frequent for these stations to go out of order during their long life time. These incidents may lead to a significant loss of pollution data. To mitigate this issue, we propose to leverage spatial correlation between pollution monitoring stations to predict the lost data. To reduce the complexity of the prediction model, for each monitoring station, we identify the best set of other stations to use in the prediction model. Correlation-based station selection is shown to outperform distance-based station selection and provides an R2 above 0.8 when applied to the Airparif datasets. {\textcopyright} 2021 IEEE.},

It offers different solutions and has shown effectiveness in managing many psychological issues. Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has critically influenced health care systems and health care workers (HCWs). HCWs are working under hard conditions, and are suffering from different psychological issues, including anxiety, stress, and depression. Consequently, there is an undeniable need of mental care interventions for HCWs. Under the circumstances caused by COVID-19, e-health interventions can be used as tools to assist HCWs with their mental health. These solutions can provide mental health care support remotely, respecting the recommended safety measures. Materials and Methods: This study aims to identify e-mental health interventions, reported in the literature, that are developed for HCWs during the COVID-19 pandemic. A systematic literature review was conducted following the PRISMA protocol by searching the following digital libraries: IEEE, ACM, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and PubMed. Results and Discussion: Eleven publications were selected. The identified e-mental health interventions consisted of social media platforms, e-learning content, online resources and mobile applications. Only 27\% of the studies included empirical evaluation of the reported interventions, 55\% listed challenges and limitations related to the adoption of the reported interventions. And 45\% presented interventions developed specifically for HCWs in China. The overall feedback on the identified interventions was positive, yet a lack of empirical evaluation was identified, especially regarding qualitative evidence. Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance and need for e-mental health solutions for HCWs. {\textcopyright} Copyright 2021, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers 2021.},

	abstract = {Ensemble methods overcome the limitations of single machine learning techniques by combining different techniques, and are employed in the quest to achieve a high level of accuracy. This approach has been investigated in various fields, one of them being that of bioinformatics. One of the most frequent applications of ensemble techniques involves research into cardiovascular diseases, which are considered the leading cause of death worldwide. The purpose of this research work is to identify the papers that investigate ensemble classification techniques applied to cardiology diseases, and to analyse them according to nine aspects: their publication venues, the medical tasks tackled, the empirical and research types adopted, the types of ensembles proposed, the single techniques used to construct the ensembles, the validation frameworks adopted to evaluate the proposed ensembles, the tools used to build the ensembles, and the optimization methods employed for the single techniques. This paper reports the carrying out of a systematic mapping study. An extensive automatic search in four digital libraries: IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, PubMed, and Scopus, followed by a study selection process, resulted in the identification of 351 papers that were used to address our mapping questions. This study found that the papers selected had been published in a large number of different resources. The medical task addressed most frequently by the selected studies was diagnosis. In addition, the experiment-based empirical type and evaluation-based research type were the most dominant approaches adopted by the selected studies. Homogeneous ensembles were the ensemble type that was developed most often in literature, while decision trees, artificial neural networks and Bayesian classifiers were the single techniques used most frequently to develop ensemble classification methods. The weighted majority and majority voting rules were adopted to obtain the final decision of the ensembles developed. With regard to evaluation frameworks, the datasets obtained from the UCI and PhysioBank repositories were those used most often to evaluate the ensemble methods, while the k-fold cross-validation method was the most frequently-employed validation technique. Several tools with which to build ensemble classifiers were identified, and the type of software adopted with the greatest frequency was open source. Finally, only a few researchers took into account the optimization of the parameter settings of either single or meta ensemble classifiers. This mapping study attempts to provide a greater insight into the application of ensemble classification methods in cardiovascular diseases. The majority of the selected papers reported positive feedback as regards the ability of ensemble methods to perform better than single methods. Further analysis is required to aggregate the evidence reported in literature. {\textcopyright} 2020, Springer Nature B.V.},

Several approaches have already been tested to incorporate intentionality in service engineering. However, there are limited results in terms of user intention understanding and context awareness. This systematic literature review interprets available approaches, especially those considered relevant for particular concern: intention representation, intention matching, and context influence on intention. It explains the pros and cons inherent to each proposed method. A total of 51 papers published between 2010 and 2020 were rigorously selected. The current review results demonstrate that the available literature suggests multiple approaches to intentionality adaptation.

	abstract = {Background and objective Anxiety is a common emotion that people often feel in certain situations. But when the feeling of anxiety is persistent and interferes with a person{\textquoteright}s day to day life then this may likely be an anxiety disorder. Anxiety disorders are a common issue worldwide and can fall under general anxiety, panic attacks, and social anxiety among others. They can be disabling and can impact all aspects of an individual{\textquoteright}s life, including work, education, and personal relationships. It is important that people with anxiety receive appropriate care, which in some cases may prove difficult due to mental health care delivery barriers such as cost, stigma, or distance from mental health services. A potential solution to this could be mobile mental health applications. These can serve as effective and promising tools to assist in the management of anxiety and to overcome some of the aforementioned barriers. The objective of this study is to provide an analysis of treatment and management-related functionality and characteristics of high-rated mobile applications (apps) for anxiety, which are available for Android and iOS systems. Method A broad search was performed in the Google Play Store and App Store following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) protocol to identify existing apps for anxiety. A set of free and highly rated apps for anxiety were identified and the selected apps were then installed and analyzed according to a predefined data extraction strategy. Results A total of 167 anxiety apps were selected (123 Android apps and 44 iOS apps).

	abstract = {Background and objective: Anxiety is a common emotion that people often feel in certain situations. But when the feeling of anxiety is persistent and interferes with a person{\textquoteright}s day to day life then this may likely be an anxiety disorder. Anxiety disorders are a common issue worldwide and can fall under general anxiety, panic attacks, and social anxiety among others. They can be disabling and can impact all aspects of an individual{\textquoteright}s life, including work, education, and personal relationships. It is important that people with anxiety receive appropriate care, which in some cases may prove difficult due to mental health care delivery barriers such as cost, stigma, or distance from mental health services. A potential solution to this could be mobile mental health applications. These can serve as effective and promising tools to assist in the management of anxiety and to overcome some of the aforementioned barriers. The objective of this study is to provide an analysis of treatment and management-related functionality and characteristics of high-rated mobile applications (apps) for anxiety, which are available for Android and iOS systems. Method: A broad search was performed in the Google Play Store and App Store following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) protocol to identify existing apps for anxiety. A set of free and highly rated apps for anxiety were identified and the selected apps were then installed and analyzed according to a predefined data extraction strategy. Results: A total of 167 anxiety apps were selected (123 Android apps and 44 iOS apps). Besides anxiety, the selected apps addressed several health issues including stress, depression, sleep issues, and eating disorders. The apps adopted various treatment and management approaches such as meditation, breathing exercises, mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy. Results also showed that 51\% of the selected apps used various gamification features to motivate users to keep using them, 32\% provided social features including chat, communication with others and links to sources of help; 46\% offered offline availability; and only 19\% reported involvement of mental health professionals in their design.

We present and experimentally evaluate a new probabilistic learning-based method that provides quality guarantees for progressive Nearest Neighbor (NN) query answering. We provide both initial and progressive estimates of the final answer that are getting better during the similarity search, as well suitable stopping criteria for the progressive queries.

	abstract = {Nowadays, the cybersecurity issue involves new strategies to protect against advanced threats and unknown attacks. Intrusion detection system (IDS) is considered a robust system dealing with attacks detection, particularly unknown attacks and anomalies. Several IDS-based algorithms have been recently inspected in the literature, among them the well-known strengthen algorithms, i.e. Genetic algorithm (GA). Moreover, Epigenetic-based algorithm (EGA) is known as an improved version of GA ensuring high performance with reduced computational complexity. Its main goal is to converge within a short time towards an optimal solution by acting on genetic operators, namely mutation and crossover. In this article, we propose a new classifier based on EGA for IDS. Especially, based on a database of network traffics, EGA is applied to classify attacks. The results, performed through EGA simulation, show that the performance of the proposed technique outperforms the ones of GA classifier by obtaining a high detection rate up to 98\% and a faster processing time than that of GA and other algorithms that we have compared in this article. {\textcopyright} 2020 BMJ Publishing Group.

In parallel, contextual situation refers to a higher level of information inferred from different context data flow that can be extracted from physical and virtual sensors. The power of using situation is lies in their ability to provide a simple and comprehensible representation of context property, which preserve the services that manipulate them from the complexity of sensor readings, data transmission errors and inferencing activities.

To implement an innovation approach that gives organizations the means to develop sustainable management strategies, allowing them to increase overall performance, we proposed the "ICT Sustainable Management" model which is designed according to a Green IT (GIT) and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) concepts in order to seek new transition ways for management serving SD. Our model constitutes a first research step to lead reflection on next-generation SD-oriented management models. For this reason, we consider it more appropriate to approve the validity of our model through its application on different categories of companies that use ICT. Analysis of the results of this application test has demonstrated the validity of our model at the scale of five companies.

	abstract = {Cognitive radio (CR) is a promising paradigm that comes to address the scarcity of the radio spectrum by providing opportunistic utilization of the underutilized licensed channels to attain higher spectrum efficiency. The efficient use of the vacant portion of the spectrum depends directly on the medium access control (MAC) layer that coordinates fairly the access of the CR nodes to the idle spectrum. However, the MAC layer is vulnerable to several attacks driven by malicious nodes. One of those attacks is the backoff manipulation attack (BMA), where the selfish attacker deviates from the defined contention mechanism to gain inequitable access to the available channels. This unfair access presents some specific characteristics of an attacker, which can be considered as an input to the supervised machine learning algorithm for classification. In this paper, we propose a support vector machine (SVM) based model in order to distinctively identify the attacker depending on the throughput and the average packet delay to classify/predict an eventual attack. Finally, theoretical predictions and simulation results are presented to validate the proposed framework while giving useful insights into CR systems{\textquoteright} performance, vulnerable to BMA attacks. {\textcopyright} 2013 IEEE.},

	abstract = {The presence of pollutants in the air has a direct impact on our health and causes detrimental changes to our environment. Air quality monitoring is therefore of paramount importance. The high cost of the acquisition and maintenance of accurate air quality stations implies that only a small number of these stations can be deployed in a country. To improve the spatial resolution of the air monitoring process, an interesting idea is to develop data-driven models to predict air quality based on readily available data. In this paper, we investigate the correlations between air pollutants concentrations and meteorological and road traffic data. Using machine learning, regression models are developed to predict pollutants concentration. Both linear and non-linear models are investigated in this paper. It is shown that non-linear models, namely Random Forest (RF) and Support Vector Regression (SVR), better describe the impact of traffic flows and meteorology on the concentrations of pollutants in the atmosphere. It is also shown that more accurate prediction models can be obtained when including some pollutants{\textquoteright} concentration as predictors. This may be used to infer the concentrations of some pollutants using those of other pollutants, thereby reducing the number of air pollution sensors. {\textcopyright} 2020 - IOS Press and the authors.

	abstract = {Achieving a high level of classification accuracy in medical datasets is a capital need for researchers to provide effective decision systems to assist doctors in work. In many domains of artificial intelligence, ensemble classification methods are able to improve the performance of single classifiers. This paper reports the state of the art of ensemble classification methods in lung cancer detection. We have performed a systematic mapping study to identify the most interesting papers concerning this topic. A total of 65 papers published between 2000 and 2018 were selected after an automatic search in four digital libraries and a careful selection process. As a result, it was observed that diagnosis was the task most commonly studied; homogeneous ensembles and decision trees were the most frequently adopted for constructing ensembles; and the majority voting rule was the predominant combination rule. Few studies considered the parameter tuning of the techniques used. These findings open several perspectives for researchers to enhance lung cancer research by addressing the identified gaps, such as investigating different classification methods, proposing other heterogeneous ensemble methods, and using new combination rules.

This paper describes the methodology used in the development of this system along with some preliminary data analysis results. A key feature of MoreAir is its innovative sensor deployment strategy which is based on mobile and nomadic sensors as well as on medical data collected at a children{\textquoteright}s hospital, used to identify urban areas of high prevalence of respiratory diseases. Another key feature is the use of machine learning to perform prediction. In this paper, Moroccan cities are taken as case studies. Using the agile deployment strategy of MoreAir, it is shown that in many Moroccan neighborhoods, road traffic has a smaller impact on the concentrations of particulate matters (PM) than other sources, such as public baths, public ovens, open-air street food vendors and thrift shops. A geographical information system has been developed to provide real-time information to the citizens about the air quality in different neighborhoods and thus raise awareness about urban pollution. {\textcopyright} 2020 by the authors.

Located in close proximity from the end users and connected devices, MEC provides extremely low latency and high bandwidth while always enabling applications to leverage cloud capabilities as necessary. In this article, we illustrate the integration of MEC into a current mobile networks{\textquoteright} architecture as well as the transition mechanisms to migrate into a standard 5G network architecture.We also discuss SDN, NFV, SFC and network slicing as MEC enablers. Then, we provide a state-of-the-art study on the different approaches that optimize the MEC resources and its QoS parameters. In this regard, we classify these approaches based on the optimized resources and QoS parameters (i.e., processing, storage, memory, bandwidth, energy and latency). Finally, we propose an architectural framework for a MEC-NFV environment based on the standard SDN architecture. {\textcopyright} 2020 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc..

	abstract = {The estimation of inhalation flow rate (IFR) using acoustic devices has recently received attention. While existing work often assumes that the microphone is placed at a fixed distance from the acoustic device, this assumption does not hold in real settings. This leads to poor estimation of the IFR since the received acoustic energy varies significantly with the distance. Despite the fact that the acoustic source is passive and only one microphone is used, we show in this paper that the distance can be estimated by exploiting the inhaler actuation sound, generated when releasing the medication. Indeed, this sound is used as a reference acoustic signal which is leveraged to estimate the distance in real settings. The resulting IFR estimation is shown to be highly accurate (R2 = 80.3\%). {\textcopyright} 2020 IEEE.},

The sensor nodes have been developed using low-cost off-the-shelf hardware. Both nomadic and mobile sensor nodes have been developed. A novel sensor management middleware has been designed and developed to have the flexibility to remotely control the operational settings of the sensor nodes and to reduce the volume of transmitted data. Finally, two applications have been developed and implemented for data visualization. The first is a mobile friendly air pollution meter. The second offers a spatial visualization of air pollution levels using a Geographic Information System (GIS). The developed platform has been tested in multiple measurement campaigns. The results of one of these campaigns (conducted in Hay Nahda II, Rabat, Morocco) is presented in this paper to showcase the platform. {\textcopyright} 2020 IEEE.},

The mental health industry is still facing some barriers to healthcare delivery such as costs, mental health illiteracy, and stigma. Incorporating technological interventions in the treatment and the diagnosis processes might help overcome these barriers. Sensors are devices that have been used for healthcare since the 1990s and have been incorporated into mental healthcare in different forms. In this study, we conducted a systematic literature review to identify and analyze sensor-based solutions for mental healthcare. 12 studies were identified and analyzed. The majority of the selected studies presented methods and models and were empirically evaluated and showed promising accuracy results. Different types of sensors were used to collect different types of data about the patient such as physical and behavioral information. The selected studies mainly addressed the use of sensors for common mental issues like stress and depression or the analysis of general mental status. Some studies reported some limitations mainly related to technological issues and lack of standards. {\textcopyright} 2020 by SCITEPRESS - Science and Technology Publications, Lda.

	abstract = {In cellular communication networks, researchers are trying to improve network communication and adapt it to meet the requirements of new technologies such as the Internet of Things. The next generation of wireless networks (5G) promises new network features such as low latency, peripheral computing and radio convergence that will pave the way for a world that is ubiquitously connected. In this context and for the provision of the necessary high-quality services and connection, continuously and everywhere, even under poor network conditions, any network failures must be managed quickly and efficiently. Covering the network in remote areas, providing services in overcrowded areas, or safeguarding the network in the event of damage to the cellular infrastructure (for example, a physical disaster) are a number of challenges. In this paper we discuss the architecture and possible applications of flight modes as a part of a 5G network supporting network splitting and lightweight virtualization at the extent of relay Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) as being small cells. It also provides 5G aerial measurement results to support the feasibility check of UAV use in two possible scenarios, namely improving the position of UAVs relative to the position and circulation of users (UEs) additionally because the increased network coverage through algorithms supported theory of games. {\textcopyright} 2020 IEEE.},

The objective is to model and solve a strategic planning problem at three levels which are: supplier-plant, plant-plant and plant-customer. The costs taken into effect in this model are: the supply costs, production costs and transport costs. The problem belongs to the CFLP Family (Capacitated Facility Location Problem) with a NPhard complexity. The objective of our MIP problem is to maximize a production company benefits through minimizing costs mentioned above. Given the limitations of exact methods and the optimum local problem when we used a heuristic method like a LNS (Large Neighborhood Search), we proposed to solve this problem using hybridization between two heuristics: LNS \& Genetic Algorithm This hybridization will give us more opportunities to find better solution when a local optimum is reached. {\textcopyright} IEOM Society International.},

	abstract = {In this paper, we present one generalization of the famous capacitated p-median location problem, called budget constraint multi-capacitated location problem (MCLP). This generalization is characterized by allowing each facility to be used with different capacity levels. We consider n customers, m facilities and l capacity levels, we note that the solution shape of MCLP can be represented as a set of disjoint clusters, each cluster is composed of one facility and a subset of customers. When creating clusters, some constraints must be met, namely the level selection and capacity. In this work, we present the new formulation of the MCLP based on set partitioning, then we suggest an adapted solving method, which will be called NFF (Nearest Facility First). The NFF approach is used in two ways: as a heuristic by taking only the first solution found or exact method when waiting finish the execution. Computational results are presented at the end using instances that we have created under some criteria of difficulties or adapted from those of p-median problems available in literature. The NFF method provides very good results for low and medium difficulty instances, but it is less effective for the more complex ones. To remedy this problem, the method will be supplemented by column generation approach. {\textcopyright} IEOM Society International.},

It helps learners to face the real world and put in practice what they have learned to judge their operability. Moreover, due to some limiting factors and due to the growth number of learners, universities and institutes have become inapt to give efficient learning. Distance education presents a future key to reduce these restrictions.

	abstract = {Higher order quadrature amplitude modulation (HOQAM) is one of the key technologies used in advanced mobile communication systems to achieve high data rates. However, in such systems, performance evaluation can be very complicated and time consuming due to the increase of constellation size. As a solution, a QAM scheme is seen as a combination of two pulse amplitude modulations (PAM). Nevertheless, the system remains complex especially with very high constellation sizes. Therefore, Monte-Carlo simulation method is impractical to obtain the expected system performance. In this paper, we propose a semi-analytical performance evaluation methodology for a PAM modulation. Our approach is based on the probability density estimation using kernel technique in joint application with cross-validation (CV) criterion. We derive both semi-analytical symbol error probability (SEP) and semi-analytical bit error probability (BEP) for several modulation schemes. Simulation results show that, in terms of SEP and BEP metrics, our technique is accurate compared with theoretical error probabilities.},

	abstract = {The digital environments for human learning have been much evolving thanks to the incredible progress of information technologies. This is particularly the case for automatic correction of spelling errors requested by a large majority of people nowadays. Almost all of the current spellcheckers are semiautomatic, and they enable users to find the good solution for a committed error. The major shortcoming of the existing metric methods of correction lies in the bad scheduling of the solutions suggested to the spellchecking out of context of a detected error. To overcome this limitation, we have developed several approaches which suggest probability costs estimated from a learning test. It is attributed in various editing operations during calculating measure of similarity, case of the edit distance. The idea developed in this work was to know how to efficiently weigh these editing operations without resorting to a phase of learning. This is based only on the proximity and the similarity between Arabic keyboard keys. Additionally, we have suggested combining this measure with the distance of Jaro-Winkler in order to better filter, refine and weigh certain solutions compared to others. The experimental results stem from tests conducted on errors committed in a learning corpus, trying to validate the choices of conception and to prove the interest of both approaches. {\textcopyright} 2015 IEEE.},

	abstract = {In system-level design, descriptive system models seem to be insufficient in order to perform a system verification which fulfils various stakeholders requirements. This fact is accentuated by the increasing complexity of system engineering projects and, as a consequence, the difficulties to deal with both their coordination and traceability. Even if SysML (System Modeling Language) is considered as a flexible and standard tool for system engineering, using only descriptive models are insufficient for system behavior verifications. To deal with this concern, simulation environments (i.e. MATLAB/Simulink) allow verifying if the system preliminary design satisfies requirements or not. As a consequence, various research works have been centered on combining the potential of both SysML modeling and simulation tools. This paper proposes an integration approach based on metamodeling and model transformations to generate Simulink models from SysML diagrams. This approach is handled by models and modern techniques of MDE (ModelDriven Engineering).},

	abstract = {The importance of radio frequency identification (RFID) increases for its powerful capabilities for identifying, locating and automatic access control objects. Electronic Product Code Class 1 Generation 2 (EPC-C1G2) is served as the most popular standard for passive RFID tags. In the last year several schemes were proposed to improve security of EPC-C1G2, most of these schemes still vulnerable and cannot resist some attacks and others schemes exceeds the powerful computing capacity of passive tag. In this paper, we propose a new authentication mutual scheme compliant to EPC-C1G2 standard. The proposed scheme uses only ultra-lightweight operations, Cyclic Redundancy Code (CRC), exclusive OR (XOR) and Pseudo Random Number Generators (PRNG). We have demonstrated that proposed scheme resist against security attacks and more that is better than the previous schemes in terms of the communication and computation cost.},

Additionaly, by introducing contextual information in the service discovery process, the quality of the service discovery result may improve.

An important challenge in context-aware service oriented systems is the creation of a new service on demand to carry out more complex tasks through the composition of existing services. In this work, we aim to propose a semantic based architecture for the development of context aware services composition using Artificial Intelligence (AI) planning. The straightforward translation between AI planning through PDDL and Semantic web services via OWL-S allows to automate the composition process. Thus planning based service composition launches a goal-oriented composition procedure to generate a plan of composite service corresponding to the user request.

	abstract = {Sensor networks are gaining more and more attention in the current technology landscape. It is undeniable that their use allows a better monitoring of events that occur in the real world. Many sensors have been deployed for monitoring applications such as environmental monitoring, and traffic monitoring. A number of governments, corporates, and academic organizations or agencies hold independently sensor systems that generate a large amount of dynamic information from data sources with various formats of schemas and data. They are making this sensor data openly accessible by publishing it as Linked Sensor Data (LSD) on the Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud. LSD is the concept that defines the publication of public or private organization sensor data without restrictions. This is achieved by transforming raw sensor observations to RDF format and by linking it with other datasets on the LOD cloud. The seamless integration of LSD sources from multiple providers is a great challenge. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of integrating diverse LSD sources using the hybrid ontology approach for on-line analytical processing (OLAP) on-the-fly. With such an ontology-based integration framework, organizations or individuals will have greater opportunity to make their respective analysis based on a large amount of sensor data openly accessible on the Web. {\textcopyright} 2014 IEEE.},

	abstract = {The information integration systems consist in offering a uniform interface to provide access to a set of autonomous and distributed information sources. The most important advantage of this system is that it allows users to specify what they want, rather than thinking about how to get the responses. The works realized in this area have particular leads to two major classes of integration systems: the mediation systems based on the paradigm mediator / adapter and peer to peer systems (P2P). The combination of both systems has led to a third type; is the mediation P2P systems. The P2P systems are large-scale systems, self-organized and distributed. They allow the resource management in a completely decentralized way. However, the integration of structured information sources, heterogeneous and distributed proves to be a complex problem. The objective of this work is to propose an approach to resolve conflicts and establish a mapping between the heterogeneous elements. This approach is based on clustering; the latter is to group similar Peers that share common information in the same subnet. Thus, to facilitate the heterogeneity, we introduced three additional layers of our hierarchy of peers: internal schema, external schema and Schema directory peer. We used linguistic techniques, and precisely the name correspondence technique, that is based on the similarity of names to propose a correspondence.},

Our work{\textquoteright}s concern is to build a secure network coding scheme in the presence of eavesdroppers in large-scale DTMNs. Therefore, we used a cluster based routing protocol dedicated to DTMN specificities. In addition, we used Sparse Random Linear Network Coding (SRLNC) to feat low computational capabilities requirement in such networks. Furthermore, we addressed the packets retransmission decision problem for SRLNC with a fair trade-off throughput/overhead. The results are very encouraging and the proposed routing scheme has the advantage to be reliable as well as secure for large scale DTMN.},

Unfortunately, these dictionaries in their rough form are inefficient for their inclusion in automatic text processing systems.

	abstract = {Hashtags are user-defined terms used on the Web to tag messages like microposts, as featured on Twitter. Because a hashtag is a textual word, its representation does not convey all the concepts it embodies. Several online dictionaries have been manually and collaboratively built to provide natural language definitions of hashtags. Unfortunately, these dictionaries in their rough form are inefficient for their inclusion in automatic text processing systems. As hashtags can be polysemic, dictionaries are also agnostic to collision of hashtags. This paper presents our approach for the automatic structuration of hashtags definitions into synonym rings. We present the output as a so-called folksionary, i.e. a single integrated dictionary built from everybody{\textquoteright}s definitions. For this purpose, we achieved a semantic-relatedness clustering to group definitions that share the same meaning. {\textcopyright} 2014 IEEE.},

	abstract = {The buffer sizing problem in unreliable production lines is an important, indeed, complex combinatorial optimization problem with many industrial applications. These applications include quality, logistics and manufacturing production systems. In the formulation of the problem, the system consists of n machines, n fixed-size buffers and m inspection station in series. The objective is to minimize a combined storage and shortage costs, and also specifying the optimal location of inspection stations in the system. The present paper aims at optimizing a generalization of the model previously proposed in (Mhada et al., 2014) using a novel approach. In this approach, we combine Tabu Search (TS) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) to identify search regions with promising locations of inspection stations and an exact method to optimize the assignment of buffer sizes for each location. This approach provides a balance between diversification and intensification. Numerical results on test problems from previous research are reported. Using this approach, we can reduce the solution time by more than 97\% in some cases.},

	abstract = {The combination of sensor networks with databases has led to a large amount of real-time data to be managed, and this trend will still increase in the next coming years. With this data explosion, current integration systems have to adapt. One of the main challenges is the integration of information coming from autonomously deployed sensor networks, with different geographical scales, but also with the combination of such information with other sources, such as legacy systems. Two main approaches for integrating sensor information are generally used: virtual and warehousing approaches. In the virtual approach, sensor devices are considered as data sources and data are managed locally. In contrast, in the warehousing approach, sensor data are stored in a central database and queries are performed on it. However, these solutions turn out to be difficult to exploit in the current technology landscape. This paper focuses on the issue of integrating multiple heterogeneous sensor information and puts forward a framework for decision making process.},

	abstract = {Sensor networks are gaining more and more attention in the current technology landscape. It is undeniable that their use allows a better monitoring of events that occur in the real world. Many sensors have been deployed for monitoring applications such as environmental monitoring, and traffic monitoring. A number of governments, corporates, and academic organizations or agencies hold independently sensor systems that generate a large amount of dynamic information from data sources with various formats of schemas and data. They are making this sensor data openly accessible by publishing it as Linked Sensor Data (LSD) on the Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud. LSD is the concept that defines the publication of public or private organization sensor data without restrictions. This is achieved by transforming raw sensor observations to RDF format and by linking it with other datasets on the LOD cloud. The seamless integration of LSD sources from multiple providers is a great challenge. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of integrating diverse LSD sources using the hybrid ontology approach for on-line analytical processing (OLAP) on-the-fly. With such an ontology-based integration framework, organizations or individuals will have greater opportunity to make their respective analysis based on a large amount of sensor data openly accessible on the Web.},

The core assumptions behind the system are: software agents representing Grid resources work in teams, and all information is ontologically represented and semantically processed. Thus far, trust management in AiG system is approached from the perspective of breaching an agreement between Users and teams or contracts between teams and Workers. Unfortunately, it is also possible that some Workers, which fulfilled the agreement, could have maliciously returned incorrect results from the jobs that they executed.

In order to remedy this problem, we suggest, in this article, that a measurement of proximity and similarity between Arabic characters be integrated into Levenshtein algorithm, in the aim of enhancing the suggestions and the scheduling of the solutions returned by the spelling correction.

	abstract = {In ubiquitous computing, context-aware service oriented systems refer to applications that use so-called contextual information to provide appropriate services or relevant information to the user or other applications to perform a specific task. An important challenge in such applications is context modeling, using ontologies to model context information and to reason about context at a semantic level has attracted a lot of interest in the research community. However, most of the presented approaches do not usually take into account any software engineering method. Therefore, employing standard approaches to formulate the development process becomes of importance. In this paper, we present an overview of the architecture for the development of context aware services based on ontologies, we also present our context modeler based on ODM (Ontology Definition Metamodel) and model transformations that allows to generate an OWL ontology representing context information.},

	abstract = {Product development processes comprise highly creative and knowledge-intensive tasks that involve extensive information exchange and communication among geographically distributed teams. Due to the geographical and institutional separation between the different systems involved in the product lifecycle, product knowledge sharing is becoming a key issue in the information systems of extended enterprises. This paper addresses the issue and challenges of product knowledge traceability during the product development. The aim of this research effort is to enhance the sharing and use of product knowledge acquired during the development process using traceability information. A standardized approach is proposed to trace and share product knowledge and key constructs to support traceability during the product development process are identified and formalized. This research effort is based on the premise that an important step towards achieving product knowledge sharing is providing traceability across various product knowledge elements that are used in product development phases, i.e. design and manufacturing. Two disjointed but complementary case studies illustrating the benefit of traceability are presented. The potential role of traceability is described, first to support the decision making process during engineering change management (ECM), and second to support product-oriented modelling for knowledge sharing and exchanging to meet the quality requirements. The proposed approach has been implemented using the MEGA Suite tool and applied to each of the case studies and could be integrated to PLM systems currently in use. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
