	abstract = {Color texture classification aims to recognize patterns by the analysis of their colors and their textures. This process requires using descriptors to represent and discriminate the different texture classes. In most traditional approaches, these descriptors are used with a predefined setting of their parameters and computed from images coded in a chosen color space. The prior choice of a color space, a descriptor and its setting suited to a given application is a crucial but difficult problem that strongly impacts the classification results. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a color texture representation that simultaneously takes into account the properties of several settings from different descriptors computed from images coded in multiple color spaces. Since the number of color texture features generated from this representation is high, a dimensionality reduction scheme by clustering-based sequential feature selection is applied to provide a compact hybrid multi-color space (CHMCS) descriptor. The experimental results carried out on five benchmark color texture databases with five color spaces and manifold settings of two texture descriptors show that combining different configurations always improves the accuracy compared to a predetermined configuration. On average, the CHMCS representation achieves 94.16\% accuracy and outperforms deep learning networks and handcrafted color texture descriptors by over 5\%, especially when the dataset is small. {\textcopyright} 2022 by the authors.},

	abstract = {Many approaches of texture analysis by color or hyperspectral imaging are based on the assumption that the image of a texture can be viewed as a multi-component image, where spatial interactions within and between components are jointly considered (opponent component approach) or not (marginal approach). When color images are coded in multiple color spaces, texture descriptors are based on Multi Color Channel (MCC) representations. By extension, a Multi Spectral Band (MSB) representation can be used to characterize the texture of material surfaces in hyperspectral images. MSB and MCC representations are compared in this paper for texture classification issues. The contribution of each representation is investigated with marginal and/or opponent component strategies. For this purpose, several relevant texture descriptors are considered. Since MSB and MCC representations generate high-dimensional feature spaces, a dimensionality reduction is applied to avoid the curse of dimensionality. Experimental results carried out on three hyperspectral texture databases (HyTexiLa, SpecTex and an original dataset extracted from the Timbers database) show that considering between component interactions in addition to the within ones significantly improves the classification accuracies. The proposed approaches allow also to outperform state of the art hand-designed descriptors and color texture descriptors based on deep learning networks. This study highlights the contribution of hyperspectral imaging compared to color imaging for texture classification purposes but also the advantages of color imaging depending on the considered texture representation. {\textcopyright} 2022},

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 = {{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.

The designed RFID tag antenna consists of a pair of T-shaped dipole strips loaded with four half discs patches and a tag chip placed in the center. The antenna{\textquoteright}s size is 80 {\texttimes} 40 {\texttimes} 1.6 mm3. Performance of the proposed design was investigated with simulations and measurements. The main feature of this design is that the RFID tag antenna can operate effectively at 868 MHz and 915 MHz frequency bands which make it broadband. The maximum reading range measured in an anechoic chamber is 4.25 m and 5.27 m at 915 MHz and 867.5 MHz, respectively. Furthermore, the RFID tag antenna can work on metallic plates when inserting a foam spacer between them. The final result has a simple configuration, low profile and can be suitable for practical applications dealing with free-space and metallic objects. {\textcopyright} 2017, Electromagnetics Academy.

	abstract = {Phishing email has become a popular solution among attack- ers to steal all kinds of data from people and easily breach organizations{\textquoteright} security system. Hackers use multiple tech- niques and tricks to raise the chances of success of their attacks, like using information found on social networking websites to tailor their emails to the target{\textquoteright}s interests, or targeting employees of an organization who probably can{\textquoteright}t spot a phishing email or malicious websites and avoid sending emails to IT people or employees from Security depart- ment. In this paper we focus on analyzing the coherence of information contained in the different parts of the email: Header, Body, and URLs. After analyzing multiple phish- ing emails we discovered that there is always incoherence between these different parts. We created a comprehensive method which uses a set of rules that correlates the infor- mation collected from analyzing the header, body and URLs of the email and can even include the user in the detection process. We take into account that there is no such thing called perfection, so even if an email is classified as legit-imate, our system will still send a warning to the user if the email is suspicious enough. This way even if a phishing email manages to escape our system, the user can still be protected. {\textcopyright} 2017 ACM.},

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 = {In a turbulent and more competition- oriented environment, organizations need to develop their ability to adapt quickly. To be able to adapt, an organization must, of course, be innovative and attractive, and successful innovation should be carefully planned and efficiently managed. Even if some researchers treat the early stages of innovation as {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}fuzzy{{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}} because of their uncertainty, we suppose, as many others that a well structured processes, a clear representation and a good designed management framework are crucial for the ultimate success of any innovation. Understanding the process of innovation is to understand the factors that facilitate and inhibit the success of innovations. A best understanding of how these factors are related will lead to define a proper representation and an efficient management framework supporting the innovation full lifecycle. In addition, organizations have become more aware of external knowledge and technology to maintain their competitiveness in the global market and they feel a growing need to open up their innovation processes. Therefore, to achieve successful innovation in an open context, it is necessary to overcome the challenge of integrating distributed and heterogeneous knowledge management systems. The emerging and rapid development of semantic technologies brings new opportunities and provides a promising direction for such challenge. Semantic technologies focus on the formalization of knowledge to create schemes that allow knowledge to be effectively stored, modified, shared, exchanged and reasoned. In this paper, a semantically-powered framework for innovation management is presented. This framework includes a new Lifecycle Model supporting all activities of innovation with a special focus on its front end stages; a Semantic Representation of innovation, based on three factors we have identified as cornerstones of any successful innovation and that supports a set of automatic and intelligent services such as annotation, relationship retrieval and semantic search; used to power the Core Services of our framework that aim to promote innovation, notably within an open context.},
