Impact of COVID-19 on the travel and tourism industry.
2021
Abstract Our paper is among the first to measure the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the tourism industry. Using panel structural vector auto-regression (PSVAR) (Pedroni, 2013) on data from 1995 to 2019 in 185 countries and system dynamic modeling (real-time data parameters connected to COVID-19), we estimate the impact of the pandemic crisis on the tourism industry worldwide. Past pandemic crises operated mostly through idiosyncratic shocks' channels, exposing domestic tourism sectors to large adverse shocks. Once domestic shocks perished (zero infection cases), inbound arrivals revived immediately. The COVID-19 pandemic, however, is different; and recovery of the tourism ind…

Ekotūrisma un etnotūrisma izaicinājums mudināt starptautiskos tūristus uz Latviju
2021
Bakalura darba " Ekotūrisma un etnotūrisma izaicinājums piesaistīt ārzemju tūristus Latvijā" autors ir Hwije Im un zinātniskā darba vadītāja ir Annija Apsīte. Darbā tiek analizēti ekotūrisma un etnotūrisma izaicinājumi piesastīt starptautisksus tūristus Latvijai. Darba mērķis ir identificēt pašreizējās vājības un faktorus, kuri ir spējīgi padarīt ekotūrismu un etnotūrsimu pievilcīgāku ārzemju tūristiem Latvijā. Galvenais darba uzdevums ir noskaidrot ietekmējošākos faktorus potenciālajiem tūristiem, kas liks tiem izvēlēties Latviju par tūrisma galamērķi. Darba autors iegūst un pēta rezultātus par vairākām autora izvirzītām hipotēzēm saistībā ar faktoriem, kas ir atbildīgi par tūristu trūkumu…
Sentiment Analysis of Twitter in Tourism Destinations
2020
[EN] Given the importance of electronic word of mouth (eWOM), this paper analyses the content of messages generated by users related to a tourist destination and shared through Twitter. We propose three research questions regarding eWOM behaviour in Twitter focused on the expertise of the reviewer, sentiment analysis of a tweet and its content.In order to address those research questions we carry out text mining analysis by retrieving existing information on Twitter (over 1500 tweets) regarding to Venice as a tourist destination.
Una revisión a la planificación de los recursos: sobre los enfoques de evaluación y los modelos de adaptación al uso turístico
2018
Mucho se ha hablado de la planificación del turismo. Solo cabe echar una mirada a la literatura académica para encontrar decenas de propuestas metodológicas que, desde inicios de los años 50 del siglo pasado, vienen exponiéndose. A pesar de esta vorágine creativa, todas ellas acaban, finalmente, enmarcándose en uno de los cinco enfoques identificados por Hall (2008). Sin embargo, al realizar ese mismo ejercicio para el caso de los recursos, considerados la base sobre la que asentar cualquier proceso de desarrollo turístico, los resultados sobre cómo planificarlos difieren considerablemente. Esta investigación, de carácter teórico, realiza una revisión bibliográfica de los trabajos académico…
Morally Successful Collaboration between Academia and Industry — A Case of a Project Course
2006
Academia-industry collaboration is common in the IT-field, and it includes training programs, research centre activities, and industry advisory boards (Watson and Huber 2000). For the industry, co-operation provides possibilities to acquire human resources and, for the academia, co-operation ensures that research and teaching activities are relevant. Regardless of its popularity little is known about moral issues relating to this phenomenon. This study intends to fill the gap in knowledge by determining the nature of moral conflicts perceived by clients, students, and instructors of a collaborative project course, and by formulating a framework to successfully getting grips with these confl…
A description model for regeneration through urban tourism in rural towns with underused historic real estate
2016
Il presente contributo propone un modello di descrizione (description model) che trova applicazione in una situazione reale di aiuto alla decisione posto dall'urbanista per lo sviluppo turistico delle città rurali nelle zone dell'entroterra siciliano. Il problema decisionale riguarda la città di Cianciana (AG), che negli ultimi anni si è resa protagonista di un particolare fenomeno di turismo internazionale. In particolare, proponiamo un quadro valutativo multicriteriale per la riqualificazione fisica ed economica del centro storico della città attraverso lo sviluppo del turismo. Il modello presentato, relativo a un problema decisionale di tipo descrittivo, è orientato a supportare i deciso…
Aerobic granular sludge treating anaerobically pretreated brewery wastewater at different loading rates.
2020
Abstract In this study, three different aerobic granular sludge (AGS) reactors fed with anaerobically pre-treated brewery wastewater were studied. The AGS reactors were operated under different conditions including organic loading rates (OLR) between 0.8 and 4.1 kg COD m−3 d−1, C:N:P ratios (100:10:1 and 100:6:1) and food to microorganism ratios (F/M) between 0.8 ± 0.6 and 1.2 ± 0.5 and 0.9 ± 0.3 kg-TCOD kg-VSS−1d−1. Stable granulation was achieved within two weeks and the size of the granules increased according to the OLR applied. The results indicated that low C:N:P and F/M ratios were favorable to achieve stable aerobic granules in the long term. The carbon removal rate was load-indepen…
Scad-elastic net and the estimation of individual tourism expenditure determinants
2014
This paper introduces the use of scad-elastic net in the assessment of the determinants of individual tourist spending. This technique approaches two main estimation-related issues of primary importance. So far studies of tourism literature have made a wide use of classic regressions, whose results might be affected by multicollinearity. In addition, because of the absence of robust economic theory on tourism behavior, regressor selection is often left to researcher's choice when not driven by non-optimal automatic criteria. Scad-elastic net is an OLS model that accounts for both these problems by including two types of parameters constraints, namely the smoothly clipped absolute deviation …
Musikmoderne als Mittel der Standortbestimmung eines "geistigen deutschen Juden". Ein Blick auf Arnold Schönberg in einer Vorkriegsnovelle Arnold Zwe…
2020
The aim of this article is to present the concept of "Europamüdigkeit" described by the German-Jewish writer Arnold Zweig (1887-1968) in his early work. The analysed novella titled "Quartettsatz von Schönberg" from 1913 is focused on a young emigrant who is exhausted with the European culture and encounters the music of Viennese modernism, bringing a totally new perception of the old continent.
