Smart routing for municipal solid waste collection: a heuristic approach
Published in: Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing
Jul 08, 2019
Municipal solid waste (MSW) is considered as one of the primary factors that contribute greatly to the rising of climate change and global warming affecting sustainable development in many different ways. It is indeed necessary to investigate an efficient computerized method for the optimization of MSW collection that minimizes the environmental and other factors according to a given waste collection scenario. In this paper, we propose a heuristic-based smart routing algorithm for MSW collectio...

The ɑ7 receptor is a member in the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) which has been implicated in several neurological disorders. Beside normal agonists and antagonists of α7 nAChRs, several studies revealed other types of molecules that are able to activate or deactivate ɑ7 receptors via allosteric binding; those are called positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) or negative allosteric modulators (NAMs), with the former having more pharmacological importance than the latter. Since both ty...

This study also discusses the differences from the perspectives of terminology and Islamic Shari’a, in addition to drawing on the differences as defined by Imam Al-Qar...
Examining the relationship between audit committee effectiveness and audit fees: An empirical investigation on companies listed in the UAE financial markets
Published in: Electronic Journal of Applied Statistical Analysis
Jun 04, 2019
This study seeks to understand the relationship between audit committee effectiveness and audit fees. Prior literature suggests two perspectives to explain this relationship; the first is demand based whereas a positive rela- tionship is expected, while the second is audit risk which propose a negative relationship between the two variables. In order to test the relationship be- tween the two variables, data were collected from 64 companies listed in Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange and Dubai Fina...
