    Book of Abstracts th The 14 ​ International Symposium on ​ Comparative Literature “Writing Across Borders” th th (13 ​ -15 ​ November 2018) ​ ​ Book of Abstracts 1 Abstracts of Keynote Speakers 2 “Why does Writing Cross Borders?” Ibrahim Abdel Maguid (Keynote Speaker - Day 1) Man's dreams and hopes as well as experiences of pain and agony have always been a resource for creative writing par excellence. Taking shape in time and space, they all ​ ​ contribute to make writing the epitome of human existence. The question of writing crossing local borders and reaching for a wider audience worldwide has never been an act of straightforwardly communicating a moment in time as witnessed by the writer; this can be better documented by a historian. Only when the writer's characters become the voice of humanity at large, can they cross social, geographical and historical borders. A literary work is nonetheless a commodity in need of effective marketing strategies/mechanisms to reach beyond borders and convey a message from some part of the world probably known through media stereotypes. Far removed from the human and literary aspects of writing as it may sound, this fact pertains to our part of the world despite the proliferating translations of Arabic literature into world languages. Even worse is the fact that inter- Arab borders may prove difficult for Arab writers to cross partly under some immature political pretext or for feigned ethical sensitivities in the age of internet where borders have been dissolved. Writing is truly an individual talent's conceptualization of human experience but for it to cross borders more issues should be attended to.

  • Studying Emergent Computation Using New General Model of Cellular Automata
    International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Emerging Technologies, October 2013. ISSN: 22316604 Volume 6, Issue 2, pp: 133-141 ©IJESET CELLULAR AUTOMATA FOR ADAPTIVE WEB PORTAL STRUCTURE IN EGYPTIAN UNIVERSITIES Yasser F. Hassan Department of Mathematics & Computer Science, Faculty of Science, Alexandria University, Egypt ABSTRACT In the last few years, intelligent software applications are increased in complexity and in stakeholders' expectations, principally due to new internet-centric application areas with better performance. The modeled development process in this paper involves simulated processes of evolution, learning and self-organization. University portal provides a single point of access to university-based resources which are authorized to use. The research explores and adaptive portal website link-structure considering the website as interconnecting cells in cellular automata model browsed from the root domain. The potential of cellular automata model guides the factor adaptation and evaluated and emergent computation adequately extracts the main website profiles in terms of their internal structure. KEYWORDS- University Portal, Web Software, Cellular Automata, Adaptive, Egypt I. INTRODUCTION A university portal is a web-based gateway that provides seamless access to a variety of backend resources [1] [6]. University portal provides end-users with a customized view of software and hardware resources that specific to their particular domain. The main challenge for building university portal is to make up-to-date building information more accessible and reflect the increasing services [2]. Universities want to see a control portal that works with customers (students, staff, or visitors) to help them achieve a building portal that meets both their expectations and building standards designed for the public good.

These contaminants affect water quality extensively, therefore, current study aimed to scrutinize types of water pollutants in El-Mahmoudia water canal during winter, spring, summer, and autumn seasons. Materials and Methods: Organic pollutants and pesticide residues were analyzed using the gas-chromatography- mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Heavy metals were determined by the atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Also, the physicochemical parameters of water samples were examined. Results: Results showed that residues of DDD, DDE, and dieldrin insecticides were detected in all seasons, while chlorpyrifos-methyl residues were detected during the summer and autumn seasons only. Moreover, non-targeted metabolomic analysis revealed the presence of phthalates, amino and fatty acids, and plant secondary metabolites residues. In addition, significant deterioration of the physicochemical parameters and heavy metal contents were reported compared to the safety guidelines of the Egyptian Irrigation Ministry, WHO, and FAO organizations.
