Abstract
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region in general, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region in particular, is a significantly dynamic and fast-changing part of the world, and when coupled with an ever-dynamic field (engineering), prediction becomes a real challenge. However, understanding current challenges and practices helps a lot in predicting what might help in avoiding such challenges in the future.
