Modelling of agent-based vehicle routing problem using unified modelling language

The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is among the most studied optimization problems in the field of supply chain management. Typically, VRP requires dispatching a fleet of vehicles from a central depot to deliver demand to pre-determined spatially dispersed customers, with the objective of minimizing the total routing cost, and the constraint of not exceeding vehicles' capacities. Agent Based

Online teaching at Egyptian private universities during COVID 19: Lessons learned

The aim of this empirical article is identifying and showing the key challenges and core problems faced by private universities with international affiliation, located in west Cairo, when applying online educational learning in the context of COVID-19. As well, it aims to assist in assembling the lessons learned to maximize the learning impact. a mixed-methods approach was used and it included: (1

Electricity pricing in an emerging deregulated market: A Case of Nigeria and Egypt.

The globalization and rapid industrialization of any country is a function of availability of electricity in desired quality and quantity. Nigeria and Egypt are the most populated countries in West and North Africa respectively with incredible energy resources both renewable and non-renewable. Yet, the former is highly energy deficient when compared to the later. In recent time, the appropriate

Two-modified emperor penguins colony optimization algorithms

Meta heuristic algorithms are very important methods, they used mainly in solving combinatorial optimization problems. They are stochastic in manner and simulate the behavior of any population of particles. Meta heuristics algorithms try to find optimal or near to optimal solution when solving complex optimization problem. In this paper two modified emperor penguins colony optimization algorithms

The effect of the geometric and thermal parameters on the thermal stresses during the passive cooling of printed circuit boards

The effect of components' thermal properties in addition to their geometric configuration on the developed thermal stress in a model printed circuit board (PCB) is investigated. This effect is quantified through three parameters, the average normalized temperature gradient, maximum normalized temperature gradient and the uniformity factor. It is found that the effect of the geometric configuration

Cold flow numerical simulation inside local pottery furnace for different designs for the air inlet

One of the many pleasures of living in Egypt is having the opportunity to visit places like a village called Tunis in El-Fayoum governorate which is a touristic village and export art and handicraft such as Pottery for 3-4 decades. The clay processing in the traditional pottery industry contains several stages. The process and quality of the pottery have to be improved to reduce pollution and the
