The Role of Building a Work Environment in Improving Employee Performance: Challenges and Solutions
(2025) Nouiouat, Souad; Letaief, Abdelkrim; Bouazzouz, Djihad
This study explores the significant impact of the work environment on employee performance at Sonatrach, Algeria's national hydrocarbons company. It suggests that various factors, such as the physical workspace, interpersonal relationships among colleagues, and the level of administrative support, play a vital role in shaping productivity and employee satisfaction. Utilizing a methodology that involved distri buting 60 questionnaires to employees, with 55 responses validated for statistical analysis, the study aimed to assess the correlation between work environment components and performance. The results reveal a positive relationship between a conducive physical environment, effective management practices, and strong professional relationships, all of which contribute to enhanced employee performance. These findings underscore the necessity for organizations to invest in improving workplace conditions as a long-term strategic approach to enhance productivity and employee satisfaction.
The Thirds International Conference on Computational Engineering and Intelligence Systems- ICCEIS2025 November 21st to 23rd, 2025, Online

Multidisciplinary Engineering is a currently proliferating area in which focus is put on an engineering practice by combining several academic disciplines. Computational Engineering is a modern and multidisciplinary science for computer based modeling, simulation, analysis, and optimization of complex engineering applications and natural phenomena. Sitting at the intersection of computer science and applied math, Computational Engineering deals with
mathematical techniques for modeling and simulation of complex systems; parallel programming and collaborative software development; and methods for organizing, exploring, visualizing, processing, and analyzing very large data sets. Computational Engineering includes fundamental engineering and science, and advanced knowledge of mathematics, algorithms and computer languages. On the other hand, intelligent systems engineering offers the next generation of
solutions, powered by computing and artificial intelligence. Intelligent systems are technologically advanced machines that are designed to respond to some specific requirements. In Intelligent Systems Engineering, the scope is about creating systems that sense and react to their environments.
Unlocking Potential: The Impact of Electronic Management on Human Resource Development
(2025) Nouiouat, Souad; Letaief, Abdelkrim; Bouazzouz, Djihad
This study aims to analyze the role of electronic management in the development of human resources within the Sonatrach research and development center located in Boumerdes, focusing on the challenges related to its implementation and the benefits it can bring. The research problem addresses questions regarding the effectiveness of electronic management in improving HR processes such as recruitment, training, and performance evaluation, as well as the level of employee satisfaction with these systems. A descriptive and analytical approach was adopted, with 120 questionnaires distributed to employees, of which 106 were returned. The results were analyzed using SPSS software. The findings show that electronic management significantly contributes to enhancing the efficiency of human resource management, particularly by streamlining processes, improving information accuracy, increasing employee satisfaction, and boosting performance. However, certain challenges were identified, particularly regarding technological infrastructure and cultural adaptation within organizations. The study recommends strengthening infrastructure and offering specialized training programs to facilitate adaptation to digital transformation
Impact of calcination temperature, organic additive percentages, and testing temperature on the rheological behaviour of dried sewage sludge
(DE GRUYTER, 2024) Bestani, Amar; Lekbir, Choukri; Benmounah, Abdelbaki
The main objective of the present work is to eval- uate the influence of calcination pretreatment (600–1,000°C), organic additive incorporation (4% methocel, 4% amijel, and 8% starch), and testing temperature (20–60°C) on the rheo- logical flow behaviour of dried sewage sludge and sewage sludge ashes. Besides, the dependency of sludge systems rheology on total solid content (4–15%) and methocel percentage (3–6%) was also evaluated. Furthermore, char- terization techniques such as thermal gravimetric ana- lysis-differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, and scanning electron microscopy were employed to investigate, respec- tively, the thermal decomposition, the chemical composition, the structural variations, the specific surface area, the surface morphology, and microstructure of sludges. The analysis of rheological characteristics according to best-fitting rheolo-
gical models such as Herschel–Bulkley, Ostwald–de Waele, Cross, and Carreau models revealed that the yield stress (τ0) and infinite apparent viscosity (η∞) increase with an increase in TS or methocel percentage and decrease with increasing calcination or testing temperature. The strong impact of testing temperature concerning the reduction of the viscosity involves high activation energy (Ea). This last criterion was used to compare the inter-particle strength of sludge systems.
