The objectives behind the generation of the HELECAR-D dataset are two folds. First, the collection of EV dataset in the Moroccan context in order to establish driving cycles for being used to test and assess related approaches and applications (e.g., rerouting, stations placement and charging requests management).It could be also used to enable the development and the calibration of machine […]
Integrating natural ventilation with Earth-to-Air Heat Exchangers (EAHE) is an innovative approach that effectively combines the benefits of both systems to enhance indoor environments while reducing energy consumption and operational costs. Many studies focus on reducing reliance on conventional heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems by optimizing the use of EAHE and natural ventilation in buildings to improve occupant comfort. […]

The main aim of SELFSERV project was to develop a novel software platform for the definition of diabetes telecare services. It addresses the needs of the Moroccan diabetic patients and hooking into the self-serving “wells” of the Moroccan societies and culture. The platform combines the “self-service” model offered by the service-oriented communities and advanced adaptive control features offered by complex […]
