Information System for the Governance of University Cooperation

Abstract

Recognizing the impact of international cooperation in science and technology, all higher education institutions prioritize strategic partnerships. If setting up a partnership is important, its management, monitoring and evaluation of cooperation actions, regular communication among partners, and the ability to allow all parties to monitor the functioning of the partnership are more important. For good co-operation management, an information system becomes a mandatory condition. Abdelmaleek Essaadi’s University team has set up an information system for the governance of a university cooperation called SIMACoop, to support cooperation between governments and universities, and to facilitate the process of partnership management. This system also helps in identifying the shared vision and goals of the partnership members and develops documents that define the partnership terms. In addition, SIMACoop has put in place procedures for maintaining and monitoring the partnership evolution [1]. The purpose of this article is to give a general presentation on SIMACoop’s design and development for the governance of university cooperation.

Research on the Prediction Model of Mine Subsidence Based on Object-Oriented and Probability Integration Method

“…Object-oriented methodology provides a unified method and framework for analyzing, designing, and implementing systems by simulating human way of thinking, decomposing the solution problem layer by layer, and realizing the mapping isomorphism of problem space and solution space. Object-oriented technology shows great potential and advantages in dealing with large and complex problems [28,29], which is essentially a method of analyzing, designing, and developing software systems using techniques such as objects, classes, encapsulation, and inheritance [30]. After continuous research and improvement, it has been widely employed in scientific research and engineering cases in various industries and has achieved many practical results [31][32][33].…”

Outlining an Intelligent Tutoring System for a University Cooperation Information System

“…It is for this reason that an information system in the university has become a compulsory condition for a good steering of the cooperation and the management of better partnerships, and to establish a solid policy for the development of the institutional relation. In order to achieve this goal the university has set up the SIMACoop information system for the management of university cooperation [1,[7][8]12]. This system has been deployed for the following reasons:…”

“…This learning system is to facilitate the use of the new information system, and at the same time reduce administrative costs and save time. The current paper describes the latest part of previous work published in [7][8].…”

A Systematic Literature Review on Construction Management Productivity Enhancement by utilizing Business Information Modeling

“…Creating and capturing value can be simply described as one of the BIM functions because information systems tend to offer management tools and support all users in their activities. Their use has become commonplace and an integral component of every activity [3]. Authors in [4] explored the BIM applications in the field of engineering management.…”
