The authors’ objective is to estimate a dynamic behaviour of Clinker Rotary Kiln when the state variables of the process can be measured only at a few locations. These variables (gas, clinker temperatures and clinker mass distributions) are elaborated with the help of heat, pressure and mass balance partial differential equations. The resulting state model, decomposed into five phenomenological zones of CRK, is used as a first step to define a set of Basic Operating Functions. A second step is used to identify a set of Operating Functions. These OFs have also been decomposed into longitudinal distributions of CRK to replace the constant, unknown or unmeasured parameters. Based on the feature of each zone, the OFs are obtained by solving the steady-state model using the standard Newton-Raphson procedure. The CRK is thus characterized by the state variables and intelligent software of the Numerical Estimated Operating Functions and method is proposed to reevaluate the set of the state variables, in adequate space step-size. Consequently, the state variables profiles are linked with the corresponding OFs, which have a direct influence on submitted disturbances for calibration.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...

Education Policy Implementation: A Mechanism for Enhancing Primary Education Development in Zanzibar

Education is one of the fundamental rights of individuals; therefore, the government of a country needs to develop and strengthen educational policy and quality as well as to ensure that everyone has equal access to basic education. The improvement of access and quality of education in the world is becoming as an essential factor in development, whereas the basic education (primary school), is acknowledged as a foundation of the higher educational development for every country. To fulfill this goal, governments introduce several policies and procedures; however, it requires some reforms and participation from the politician, policymakers, and other stakeholders to re-examine educational policy so that it can lead to multiplication and betterment of the reforms. Educational reforms actually focus on accountability. A positive educational development and reform is very challenging and needs more effort and strategy on how to use and utilize the resources effectively as such it can achie...
