    Chimp Optimization Algorithm (ChOA) is one of the recent metaheuristics swarm intelligence methods. It has been widely tailored for a wide variety of optimization problems due to its impressive characteristics over other swarm intelligence methods: it has very few parameters, and no derivation information is required in the initial search. Also, it is simple, easy to use, flexible, scalable, and has a special capability to strike the right balance between exploration and exploitation during the search which leads to favorable convergence. Therefore, the ChOA has recently gained a very big research interest with tremendous audiences from several domains in a very short time. Thus, in this review paper, several research publications using ChOA have been overviewed and summarized. Initially, introductory information about ChOA is provided which illustrates the natural foundation context and its related optimization conceptual framework. The main operations of ChOA are procedurally discussed, and the theoretical foundation is described. Furthermore, the recent versions of ChOA are discussed in detail which are categorized into modified, hybridized, and paralleled versions. The main applications of ChOA are also thoroughly described. The applications belong to the domains of economics, image processing, engineering, neural network, power and energy, networks, etc. Evaluation of ChOA is also provided. The review paper will be helpful for the researchers and practitioners of ChOA belonging to a wide range of audiences from the domains of optimization, engineering, medical, data mining, and clustering. As well, it is wealthy in research on health, environment, and public safety. Also, it will aid those who are interested by providing them with potential future research.

    People worldwide suffer from fake news in many life aspects, healthcare, transportation, education, economics, and many others. Therefore, many researchers have considered seeking techniques for automatically detecting fake news in the last decade. The most popular news agencies use e-publishing on their websites; even websites can publish any news they want. However, thus before quotation any news from a website, there should be a close look at news resource ranking by using a trusted websites classifier, such as the website world rank, which reflects the repute of these websites. This paper uses the world rank of news websites as the main factor of news accuracy by using two widespread and trusted websites ranking. Moreover, a secondary factor is proposed to compute the news accuracy similarity by comparing the current news with fakes news and getting the possible news accuracy. Experiments results are conducted on several benchmark datasets. The results showed that the proposed method got promising results compared to other comparative methods in defining the news accuracy.

    Smart Learning and Fourth Industrial Age Effects on Higher Education
    (2021)
    Zitar, Raed 
    The shift toward e-learning is imminent. The world is heading to the fourth industrial age. What are the implications of the fourth industrial age on higher education? What can a trend such as artificial intelligence contribute to education? Can Blockchain technology play part in opening a new education model? Can credentials be awarded and granted online? Experts believe that market forces will push higher education institutes to expand online education. More hybrid learning spaces will be created and different degrees awarded, and curricula structures will be created in the few coming years. However, how will this affect the education, for the better or for the worse? We have investigated this major question through extensive research within available literature and through personal encounters with many stakeholders. What are the implications of the fourth industrial age on education? That would be a major question to answer.
