Younes Guerrouat — 2024-03-08

This study aims to delve into understanding the nature of the circular economy, and its underlying principles, explore the motivations for transitioning towards it, and highlight the advantages and challenges hindering the shift. Additionally, this is done through using the descriptive approach and a case study method. The study concludes that the circular economy represents an alternative economic model to the linear economy, aiming to progress toward sustainability by maximizing product value, extending their lifespan, reducing waste and emissions, preserving the environment, and enhancing the efficiency of natural resource utilization. Furthermore, the study emphasizes that the German experience stands out as a leading example in the field of the circular economy, having embraced it since 1996 through the introduction of laws on the circular economy, waste management, and various legal frameworks enacted until 2019. Among its notable waste management strategies is the implementation of the waste hierarchy principle, aiming to separate economic growth from resource use.

The Effect of Capital Adequacy on Profitability -Panel data Evidence from North Africa and Middle East Commercial Banks (2014-2020)

Amina Benkheznadji — 2024-03-08

The objective of this study is to scrutinize and measure the impact of the capital adequacy ratio as required by the Basel Committee on a set of bank’s profitability that operating in the Middle East countries and North Africa, during the period (2014-2020). Thus, we estimate banks' profitability using return on equity (ROE) as the dependent variable, while using the capital adequacy ratio set by the Basel Committee as the independent variable. Hence, to attain the aim of this study, we depend on panel data models. The study came to a conclusion, that the capital adequacy ratio has a significant negative impact on return on equity. So, the increase in the capital adequacy standard observed among the banks in the sample drove to a decrease in the banks' ROE. furthermore, this is by virtue of the procedures used to raise capital, which also require internal or external financing, which in turn causes the latter to distribute profits and add them to capital over a longer period of time, which cause a decrease in the return on equity ratio.

Benmessaoud Adem — 2024-03-08

The aim of our paper is to elicitate the best option (the intermediary exchange rate regime) to accompany our transition from the fixed exchange regime to the floating one, to ensure the stability of the monetary market, and the level of the prices of goods and services that will be endangered in the case of a direct transition. The best option for the Algerian monetary market is the managed floating regime, in which the manipulation of the national currency will guarantee a smooth accompaniment of the balance of payment situation, managing the foreign currency reserve, while securing the power purchase. But in fact the Algerian regime is still the centralized system, with the is no manipulation of the national currency, only by pegging it to the dollar, by conducting a devaluation to mitigate the effect of 2014 crisis on the balance of payment, or revaluation to protect the power purchase.

Dimensions of Artificial Intelligence and Data Strategies in Industrial Enterprises and Achieving Sustainable Leadership: A Reading in the Saudi Industrial National Strategy 2016-2030

Benazza Hicham — 2024-03-08

It is very difficult to imagine an industry that will not be significantly impacted by data and artificial intelligence, contributing to enhancing economic performance, reducing costs, and improving operational efficiency. Artificial intelligence is expected to increase the global Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by approximately 14%, which is equivalent to around 58.9 trillion Saudi Riyals by 2030. It is anticipated that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will be a leader in the Middle East region in the artificial intelligence and big data market. Artificial intelligence plays a vital role in the future of the automation sector in the country. According to the Digital Riser 2020 report by the European Center for Digital Competitiveness, Saudi Arabia ranked first among the G20 countries. This substantial investment in artificial intelligence indicates that the contours of the industrial sector will change radically in the future. This study aims to elucidate the dimensions of artificial intelligence and data strategies in industrial enterprises and achieve sustainable leadership, with an analysis of the Saudi Industrial National Strategy 2016-2030.

Application of minimal spanning tree search algorithms to the resolution of graph problems: Case of salting and snow removal of the road network of the city of Tiaret

Setti Hamid — 2024-03-08

The main objective of this study is to treat a primordial subject of the optimization of graph and network problems, namely the problem of finding the spanning tree of minimum weight, which consists of identifying and determining the tree which connects all vertices of a graph using a set of edges whose cost is minimal. Through this research study we address the problem of salting and snow removal from the road network of the city of Tiaret during winter by the municipal authorities and services. Our mission is to determine a partial road network (sub-network) from the initial road network of the town of Tiaret, which will have to be salted and cleared of snow by these authorities and services. The application of graph theory techniques for modeling the problem, and the use of the main search algorithms for the minimum weight spanning tree, allowed the study to propose the optimal subnetwork which contains the main roads of the road network of the city of Tiaret, to salt and clear snow at the lowest possible cost.

Pépinières et Centres d’appui en Algérie : -Entre une volonté déterminée des pouvoirs publics et un vécu contrarié

Gherras Nahla — 2024-03-08

L’intérêt porté à l’examen de la situation des pépinières et centres d’appui comme incubateurs, encadrant les PME/PMI est de savoir dans quelles mesures ces structures locales ont-elles permis aux porteurs de projets de résoudre l’ensemble des difficultés rencontrées dans la création de leurs entreprises. Pour ce faire, nous avons privilégié le travail de terrain par l’organisation de rencontres directes avec les responsables en charge de ces structures au niveau des chefs-lieux de wilayas de l’Est Algérien. Chefs-lieux regroupant à la fois une pépinière et un centre d’appui. Ces rencontres sous forme d’interviews, ont permis aux responsables de mettre en exergue les difficultés rencontrées lors de leur mission d’encadrement. Parmi ces contraintes on notera le financement, l’éloignement des sièges par rapport aux centres des chefs-lieux, rendant tout déplacement des porteurs de projets difficile. Enfin les gestionnaires de ces incubateurs n’ont pas la formation entrepreneuriale requise pour insuffler une dynamique réelle d’encadrement des porteurs de projets.

English title: Business incubators and Support Centers in Algeria: -Between a determined public authority will and a thwarted experience

The interest in examining the situation of business nurseries and support centers as incubators, supervising SMEs/SMIs, is to know to what extent these local structures have enabled project leaders to resolve all the difficulties encountered during their businesses. To do this, we favored field work by organizing direct meetings with the officials in charge of these structures at the level of the chief towns of eastern Algeria. Chief towns bringing together both a business nursery and a support center. These meetings, in the form of interviews, allowed managers to highlight the difficulties encountered during their management mission. Among these constraints we note financing, the distance of the headquarters from the centers of the chief towns, making any movement of project leaders difficult; Finally, the managers of these incubators do not have the entrepreneurial training required to instill a real dynamic of supervision of project leaders.
