“…The last article that will be mentioned here is about Optimization of Vehicle Routing for Smart City. This article investigates the issue that supermarkets suffer from lack of availability of food products in the store due to lack of sufficient delivery in Casablanca [11]. The supermarkets in Casablanca addressed the issue of the unavailability of the onshelf product by integrating geographic information systems (GIS) with the VRP.…”

Non-profit organizations mitigate the problem of food insecurity by collecting surplus food from donors and delivering it to underprivileged people. In this paper, we focus on a single non-profit organization located in Makkah city (Saudi Arabia), referred to as Ekram. The current surplus food pickup/delivery and operational routing model of Ekram organization have several apparent deficiencies. First, we model the surplus pickup/delivery and operational routing model as a vehicle routing problem (VRP). Then, we optimize the pickup/delivery of different types of food groups through the different available routes. Finally, we utilize the formulated VRP problem by minimizing the total route distances. Our proposed model ensures reduction of the total time and effort necessary to send the collecting vehicles to the donors of surplus food.

“…For example, in Casablanca, (Safia et al, 2018), with the use of Geographical Information Systems sensors, present their approach to plan the distribution of food products from a single depot to multiple customers with variable demand rates, beginning by collecting data to model the problem of directing their heavy goods vehicles. Through this approach, they have presented the real-life case of a distribution firm in the food sector in a southern country using a multi-channel distribution circuit.…”

The Smart City concept is a very recent one, which, nevertheless, has already implemented in several cities around the world (for example, Dubai, Moscow, Paris). The satisfactory results are encouraging more and more cities to experiment with this concept; given that the normal city of the future will be the smart city, regardless of its size and location. We have noticed during November 2018 Sétif start-ups fair, in Algeria, the strong desire of local authorities and investors to shift to a smart management of their city (Elmoudjahid, 2019). In this article we will study the transition of an ordinary city into a smart city, whatever its socio-economic environment. The concept of a smart city will be presented, in the first instance, then we will examine various examples of cities in view of transitioning to smart city, so as to propose an application at low-cost based essentially on the collaboration of the inhabitants (which we will call "smart Citizen-centred city"), this way we will pass over the lack of developed systems benefitting from open data, sensor networks, etc. Because of this, we have selected the theme "intelligent transport", presenting a simple transport application in the Wilaya of Sétif, which will depend on the connected people.
