INTERVALES: INTERactive Virtual and Augmented framework for industriaL Environment and Scenarios
One of Industry 4.0’s greatest challenges for companies is the digitization of their processes and the integration of new related technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), which can be used for training purposes, design, or assistance during industrial operations. Moreover, recent results and industrial proofs of concept show that these technologies […]

Markov Chain-based Algorithms for Building Occupancy Modeling: A Review
Smart buildings focus on providing optimal comfort for the occupant with reduced energy consumption. Better occupant prediction and behavior analysis can significantly reduce building energy usage. Human being is an important parameter in the building control process and his comfort is paramount. Therefore, occupant modeling is critical in improving building efficiency while maintaining indoor comfort. […]

Authoring-By-Doing: An Event-Based Interaction Module for Virtual Reality Scenario Authoring Framework
Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) have already shown their advantages in industrial use during these last years. Nevertheless, the authoring and editing process of virtual and augmented contents are still time-consuming and even more for complex industrial scenarios. Therefore, it is important to simplify the authoring process. For this purpose, we are working […]

Analysis and optimization of the pharmaceutical distribution chain of NIGAPHARM company:A case study in Algeria
Pharmaceutical distribution chain represents one of the most difficult distribution chains to manage. It is made up of several intermediate links that must interact in order to satisfy customer demands. The system under study represents a real world case in Algeria; we noticed that the circuits used by delivery’s vehicles are not optimal after analyzing […]

Towards a Foundation of a Mutual Authentication Protocol for a Robust and Resilient PUF-Based Communication Network
Nowadays the resiliency is the main property in any system especially communication infrastructures. Unfortunately, many developers are working on making programs more resilient and reliable, facing people who want to use leaks in an unethical way, and breaking (or trying to break) largely used one-way functions such as MD5, SHA-1, or RSA based algorithms. As […]

Multi-period Multi-sourcing Supply Planning with Stochastic Lead-times, Quantity-dependent Pricing, and Delivery Flexibility Costs
This work studies the problem of multi-period multi-sourcing supply planning with stochastic lead-times, quantity-dependent pricing, and delivery flexibility costs. We present a problem formulation that takes also into account holding and backlog costs and finite capacities of suppliers. The objective is to minimize the expected total cost while respecting suppliers’ capacity constraints and satisfying customer […]

Usages futurs et innovation
La définition de l’innovation repose sur deux composantes : – L’invention, ou mise au point d’une solution nouvelle : nouveau produit (bien ou service), nouveau procédé, nouvelle organisation ou nouveau mode de commercialisation. La solution peut être nouvelle pour le monde, ou simplement nouvelle pour le marché ou l’entreprise cible. – L’adoption, qui requiert que […]

Design de service
L’Organisation de Coopération et de Développement Economiques définit les services comme des activités immatérielles produites et consommées simultanément, qui modifient l’état (physique, psychologique, etc.) des utilisateurs. La participation des utilisateurs en termes de temps, de disponibilité, d’attention, de transmission d’informations ou d’effort est souvent nécessaire à la mise en oeuvre des services qui sont en […]
