Training within the company is a lever for development

Djamila Fatma Belaouni — 2024-12-18

Regardless of the size or sector, companies are constantly required to innovate and differentiate themselves in the market to survive. Technological advancements, digitalization, and globalization are phenomena that define the business environment. In order to be efficient and maintain or grow market share, companies must remain vigilant, seize opportunities, and continuously reinvent themselves. In this context, the development of human capital plays a crucial role in the growth and development of companies and the broader economy. While the relationship between human capital accumulation and economic performance has been well-established over the years, the link between human capital and innovation still requires further exploration. According to the European Union (EU, 2015), "Education and training encourage creativity and innovation, capable of transforming economies and societies." Training has a positive effect on the innovativeness of firms. Furthermore, training as a method to stimulate new ideas or creativity is essential in increasing innovation activities. Formal training programs specifically have a positive impact on innovation. In other words, while various theoretical studies have acknowledged the influence of training on productivity, the key question remains: does it also enhance a company's ability to adapt, change, and grow? This contribution seeks to explore the existing relationships between the implementation of continuing education and the emergence of a dynamic of change within companies.

Advancing renewable energy in Arab Nations: A regional overview

Zahra Bouabdelli — 2024-12-18

This study explores the status of renewable energy (RE) developments in Arab countries (AC), considering RE as a crucial element for sustainable economic growth in these nations, despite their rich oil and gas reserves. The Study begins by reviewing RE resources in AC and highlights several RE projects that either have been completed or are ongoing in the region. It also assesses the adequacy of the current national institutions responsible for RE development and evaluates the effectiveness of regional and international organizations supporting RE initiatives. Finally, the paper identifies significant obstacles that hinder the large-scale integration of RE into the energy markets of AC, offering recommendations for increasing RE contributions.

Designing of Microprocessor Using VHDL MODEL

Yogesh Saini, Lalit Kumar — 2024-12-18

Since microprocessors are the main computational components of contemporary electronic devices, their design is an essential component of digital system design. The design and implementation of a simple microprocessor using VHDL (VHSIC Hardware Description Language), a potent hardware description language for simulating the structure and behavior of digital systems, is the main topic of this research study. The article describes the methodical process that was used to develop the microprocessor's architecture, functionality, and implementation in addition to the system's simulation and verification.

The research includes the development of key functional components such as the control unit, memory interfaces, data buses, and Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU). The microprocessor's support for Reduced Instruction Set Computing (RISC) architecture ensures simplicity and performance. The applicability and real-time capabilities of the design are demonstrated through functional verification and performance evaluation using FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) platforms.

The advantages of using VHDL to build high-performance microprocessors are highlighted in this paper, including scalability for complex applications and compatibility with modern verification tools. The findings provide insight on efficient hardware-software co-design methods that address power consumption, throughput, and scalability concerns. The proposed method paves the way for further advancements in customizable embedded systems, IoT devices, and next-generation computer architectures.
