Publisher: name: Journal of Tourism & Development
Year: 2021

description: The COVID-19 pandemic has a massive influence upon the working environments of scholars globally. In this paper, we investigate how the changing conditions under which individuals work because of various restrictions have inuenced the productivity of scholars based on a global sample of 1073 scholars from 83 countries. The findings show that tourism and non-tourism scholars react in similar ways to the changes in the social and physical environment of the pandemic with one exception: teleworking stressors positively affected all scholars' perceived safety and did not impact tourism scholarly productivity. Tourism and non-tourism researchers' productivity had also a positive relationship with social isolation and perceived safety. Additionally, perceived safety mediated the relationship between the psychological factors and scientic production. Moreover, perceived risk moderated the link between perceived safety and scholarly productivity. This paper contributes to tourism studies by looking at the psychological factors that inuence tourism researchers' productivity during COVID-19 and comparing their responses to non-tourism scholars.

Why Should Employers Hire People with Disabilities? – A Review of Benefits for the Hospitality Industry
Creators: name: Vashishth, Amit

Publisher: name: Journal of Tourism & Development
Year: 2021

description: Organizations across industries are increasingly paying attention to the role of people with disabilities (PWDs) in the workplace. This exploratory study aims to identify the benefits of employing people with disabilities in the Hospitality Industry. The influence of HRM policies and practices that enhance the participation of people with disabilities at the workplace were studied. Hiring PWDs has several benefits for an organization. Increased prots and cost-effectiveness, improved business turnover and retention, substantial improvement in guest loyalty and satisfaction are a few benefits for an organization with PWDs. A cross-section of industries was studied. Further research can be conducted on the employees of five-star hotels for a more HR specific perceptive. This study suggests that benevolent HRM practices for PWDs may prove beneficial for the brand value and customer loyalty in the long run. Meanwhile, HR managers need to be more practical and creative while formulating disability-inclusive initiatives. The findings of the study may be used to make the hospitality industry aware of the best practices as far as disability-inclusive plans are made for PWDs.

description: We present an ultra-low temperature study (down to T = 20 mK) of the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation (SLR) in the 55Mn nuclei of the molecular magnet Mn12-ac. The nuclear spins act as local probes for the electronic spin fluctuations, due to thermal excitations and to tunnelling events. In the quantum regime (below T = 0.75 K), the nuclear SLR becomes temperature-independent and is driven by fluctuations of the cluster's electronic spin due to the quantum tunnelling of magnetization in the ground doublet. The quantitative analysis of the nuclear SLR shows that the presence of fast-tunnelling molecules, combined with nuclear intercluster spin diffusion, plays an important role in the relaxation process.

description: In this paper, we optimize the energy efficiency (bits/s/Hz/J) of device-to-multi-device (D2MD) wireless communications. While the device-to-device scenario has been extensively studied to improve the spectral efficiency in cellular networks, the use of multicast communications opens the possibility of reusing the spectrum resources also inside the groups. The optimization problem is formulated as a mixed integer non-linear joint optimization for the power control and allocation of resource blocks (RBs) to each group. Our model explicitly considers resource sharing by letting co-channel transmission over a RB (up to a maximum of r transmitters) and/or transmission through s different channels in each group. We use an iterative decomposition approach, using first matching theory to find a stable even if sub-optimal channel allocation, to then optimize the transmission power vectors in each group via fractional programming. Additionally, within this framework, both the network energy efficiency and the max-min individual energy efficiency are investigated. We characterize numerically the energy-efficient capacity region, and our results show that the normalized energy efficiency is nearly optimal (above 90 percent of the network capacity) for a wide range of minimum-rate constraints. This performance is better than that of other matching-based techniques previously proposed.

The Abundances of Nitrogen and Oxygen in Damped Lyman Alpha Systems

description: We take a fresh look at the abundance of nitrogen in DLAs with oxygen abundances between 1/10 and 1/100 of solar. This is a metallicity regime poorly sampled in the local universe and where QSO absorbers may hold clues to both the nucleosynthetic origin of N and the chemical evolution of high redshift galaxies. We combine new VLT UVES observations with others from the literature to form a sample of 10 DLAs in which the abundances of N and of one of the two alpha-capture elements O or S have been measured. We confirm earlier reports that the (N/O) ratio exhibits a larger range of values than other ratios of heavy elements in DLAs; however, all 10 DLAs fall in the region of the (N/O) vs. (O/H) plot delimited by the primary and secondary levels of nitrogen production. Our results provide empirical evidence in support of the proposal that intermediate mass stars (with masses less than 7 solar masses) are the main source of primary nitrogen, so that its release into the ISM lags behind that of oxygen, which is produced by Type II SNae. A high proportion (40%) of the DLAs in our sample have apparently not yet attained the full primary level of N enrichment; this finding may be an indication that the metallicity regime we are studying preferentially picks out galaxies which have only recently condensed out of the IGM and begun forming stars. Alternatively, the delay in the release of N following an episode of star formation may increase with decreasing metallicity, if stars of progressively lower masses than 4 solar masses can synthesize N in their hotter interiors.

description: The Nubian ibex (Capra nubiana) is patchily distributed across parts of Africa and Arabia. In Oman, it is one of the few free-ranging wild mammals found in the central and southern regions. Its population is declining due to habitat degradation, human expansion, poaching and fragmentation. Here, we investigated the population's genetic diversity using mitochondrial DNA (D-loop 186 bp and cytochrome b 487 bp). We found that the Nubian ibex in the southern region of Oman was more diverse (D-loop HD; 0.838) compared to the central region (0.511) and gene flow between them was restricted. We compared the genetic profiles of wild Nubian ibex from Oman with captive ibex. A Bayesian phylogenetic tree showed that wild Nubian ibex form a distinct clade independent from captive animals. This divergence was supported by high mean distances (D-loop 0.126, cytochrome b 0.0528) and high FST statistics (D-loop 0.725, cytochrome b 0.968). These results indicate that captive ibex are highly unlikely to have originated from the wild population in Oman and the considerable divergence suggests that the wild population in Oman should be treated as a distinct taxonomic unit. Further nuclear genetic work will be required to fully elucidate the degree of global taxonomic divergence of Nubian ibex populations.

description: Cloud computing has been gaining popularity in the recent years. Several studies are being proceeded to build cloud applications with exquisite quality based on users demands. In achieving the same, one of the applied criteria is checkpoint based load balancing in real time scheduling through which suitable cloud service is chosen from a group of cloud services candidates. Valuable information can be collected to rank the services within this checkpoint based load balancing. In order to attain ranking, different services are needed to be invoked in the cloud, which is time consuming and wastage of services invocation. To avoid the same, this chapter proposes an algorithm for predicting the ranks of different cloud services by using the values from previously offered services.

description: The first-order metal-insulator transition (MIT) in paramagnetic $V_{2}O_{3}$ is studied within the ab-initio scheme LDA+DMFT, which merges the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). With a fixed value of the Coulomb $U=6.0 eV$, we show how the abrupt pressure driven MIT is understood in a new picture: pressure-induced decrease of the trigonal distortion within the strong correlation scenario (which is not obtained within LDA). We find good quantitative agreement with $(i)$ switch of the orbital occupation of $(a_{1g},e_{g1}^π, e_{g2}^π)$ and the spin state S=1 across the MIT, $(ii)$ thermodynamics and $dc$ resistivity, and $(iii)$ the one-electron spectral function, within this new scenario.

The state, e.g. its bodies from central to local ones, as the basic subject of tax policy has the right to introduce the tax and the other public revenues' collection, as well as to determine the scope of their collection and the other parameters concerning the fiscal policy. The subject of this research reefers to observing the rural developments' changes and the whole agro-complex' structure in the light of new tax collection as well as various implications of other fiscal forms' changes on agriculture development' s effects. Tax stimulus and tax exemption which might have positive as well as the negative effects on rural development in economy in general, especially in agriculture's development in the countries in transition could not be ignored as far as this complex field of activities is concerned. Moreover, the whole economic and social structure of the countries in transition is influenced by rapid changes deriving from their own environments. Therefore the agriculture production sector has not been evaded by those changes too.

The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) and Far Infrared Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS) were specifically designed to search for this background from 1.25 microns to millimeter wavelengths. These two instruments provided high quality, absolutely calibrated all-sky maps which have enabled the first detections of the CIB, initially at far infrared and submillimeter wavelengths, and more recently in the near infrared as well. The aim of this paper is to review the status of determinations of the CIB based upon COBE measurements. The results show that the energy in the CIB from far infrared to millimeter wavelengths is comparable to that in the integrated light of galaxies from UV to near infrared wavelengths: the universe had a luminous but dusty past. On the assumption that nucleosynthesis in stars is the energy source for most of this light, the results also imply that 1 to 8 percent of cosmic baryons has been converted to helium and heavier elements in stars. The integrated background light from UV to millimeter wavelengths is about 10 percent of that in the cosmic microwave background.

description: Le monde connaît une profonde mutation due aux changements climatiques dont les conséquences sont les catastrophes naturelles, le réchauffement climatique, etc. La production durable des matières premières agricoles est l’une des solutions à cette situation. C’est une pratique qui vise une production de qualité et de préservation de l’environnement. Elle comporte différentes techniques dont l’une est la certification. Celle-ci se présente comme le processus qui vise la transformation des comportements à travers l’adoption des bonnes pratiques agricoles, la préservation des écosystèmes tout en améliorant de façon substantielle les conditions de vie des cacaoculteurs. Cet article vise à évaluer l’impact de la certification sur le revenu des producteurs de cacao en Côte d’Ivoire. Elle utilise l’évaluation non expérimentale. A cet effet, les différentes techniques relatives à cette méthode ont servi à réaliser les diverses estimations. Ainsi à partir du propensity score matching (PSM), un probit est estimé pour déterminer les scores de propension. La confirmation de l’appariement des participants et des non participants au programme de certification s’effectue à travers la construction du support commun. L’effet moyen de l’impact de la certification sur le revenu des producteurs est obtenu à partir du PSM. Les résultats montrent que les participants au programme de certification dans la cacaoculture améliorent substantiellement leur revenu. De ce fait, les gouvernements et les partenaires privés au développement doivent unir leur force pour financer et organiser le processus de certification.

description: We study unzipping of a complementary RNA-DNA helix applied to an external force, focusing on the force-force correlations. While at the microscopic level these are given by the sequence, the experiment measures effective, macroscopic correlations. The latter are sequence-independent, i.e. universal, and constitute the central object of the underlying field theory of disordered systems. Comparing field-theory predictions and the exact solution of a 1-d toy model with the experiment, we find an excellent agreement, confirming fundamental theoretical concepts via a biologically inspired experiments.

description: Graphene grown epitaxially on SiC, close to the charge neutrality point (CNP), in an orthogonal magnetic field shows an ambipolar behavior of the transverse resistance accompanied by a puzzling longitudinal magnetoresistance. When injecting a transverse current at one end of the Hall bar, a sizeable non local transverse magnetoresistance is measured at low temperature. While Zeeman spin effect seems not to be able to justify these phenomena, some dissipation involving edge states at the boundaries could explain the order of magnitude of the non local transverse magnetoresistance, but not the asymmetry when the orientation of the orthogonal magnetic field is reversed. As a possible contribution to the explanation of the measured non local magnetoresistance which is odd in the magnetic field, we derive a hydrodynamic approach to transport in this system, which involves particle and hole Dirac carriers, in the form of charge and energy currents. We find that thermal diffusion can take place on a large distance scale, thanks to long recombination times, provided a non insulating bulk of the Hall bar is assumed, as recent models seem to suggest in order to explain the appearance of the longitudinal resistance. In presence of the local source, some leakage of carriers from the edges generates an imbalance of carriers of opposite sign, which are separated in space by the magnetic field and diffuse along the Hall bar generating a non local transverse voltage.

description: The study of soft X-ray emission of 38 X-ray selected galaxy clusters observed by ROSAT PSPC indicates that the soft excess phenomenon may be a common occurrence in galaxy clusters. Excess soft X-ray radiation, above the contribution from the hot intra-cluster medium, is evident in a large fraction of sources, and is clearly detected with large statistical significance in the deepest observations. The investigation relies on new, high resolution 21 cm HI observations. The sample selection also features analysis of infra-red images, to further ensure reliability of results with respect to the characteristics of Galactic absorption. The possibility of background or calibration effects as cause of the excess emission is likewise investigated; a detailed analysis of the distribution of the excess emission with respect to detector position and Galactic HI column density shows that the excess emission is a genuine celestial phenomenon. We find evidence for a preferential distribution of the soft excess emission at distances larger than ~150-200 kpc from the centers of clusters; this behavior may be naturally explained in the context of a non-thermal Inverse-Compton scenario. Alternatively, we propose that the phenomenon may be caused by thermal emission of very large-scale `warm' filaments seen in recent hydrodynamic simulations. This new interpretation relieves the very demanding requirements of either the traditional intra-cluster `warm' gas and the non-thermal scenarios. We also investigate the possibility of the soft excess originating from unresolved, X-ray faint cluster galaxies.

description: Reducing food insecurity is necessary for the security, the diversification and the increase of agricultural production. Specifically, the increase in rice production can not be done without the use of improved technologies suitable for socio-economic realities. This study aims to assess the impact of the use of improved rice production methods on poverty status in the rice cluster Glazoué in Benin, using the MTE approach. The study areas are the districts of Dassa, Glazoué, Ouinhi and Savalou which constitutes the development pole, with a sample of 380 producers. Primary data used come from the baseline survey of investigation in development poles in the rice sector in Benin, conducted by AfricaRice and the National Institute of Agricultural Research of Benin (INRAB) in 2012. The results showed that the use of reduced 3 rice production methods improved the intensity of poverty from 18% in the subpopulation of potential users. In the under non-user population, the impact is 16% and is statistically significant with a threshold of 5%. In the subpopulation of real users of improved rice production methods, the impact is 20%. When considering the severity of poverty, the results show that the use of improved methods of rice production reduced the severity of poverty by 12% in the subpopulation of potential users of these methods. These methods can be used as an effective instrument in the fight against food insecurity and poverty.

description: In Cloud computing environment the resources are managed dynamically based on the need and demand for resources for a particular task. With a lot of challenges to be addressed our concern is Load balancing where load balancing is done for optimal usage of resources and reduces the cost associated with it as we use pay-as-you-go policy. The task scheduling is done by the cloud service provider using preemption and non-preemption based on the requirements in a virtualized scenario which has been focused here. In this paper, various task scheduling algorithms are studied to present the dynamic allocation of resources under each category and the ways each of this scheduling algorithm adapts to handle the load and have high-performance computing

description: Using DEA model and cost-benefit analysis, this study analyzes resource efficiency and economic efficiency of 32 fish farms in the South-eastern Côte d'Ivoire. Results showed that the mean scores of technical and economic efficiency are respectively 0.575 and 0.553. There is a positive relationship between technical efficiency and economic efficiency, indicating that the farms that produce efficiently are likely to generate maximum revenue. Trained fish farmers using industrial food are the most technically and economically efficient, followed by untrained fish farmers with high level of experience who reformulate themselves their fish feed. The results of resource efficiency indicated that fish farms generate waste in the use of resources (feed, fingerling, water and land).On the other hand, the optimal management simultaneously to a minimization in the use of resources and maximization of production could help to increase production level of 16.18%. Finally, the cost-benefit analysis showed that, on average, fish farms achieve a positive gross and net margin. The results show the important role of governments in fish farmer’s access to feed and fingerlings. Promote and support research in the formulation of local feed available at lower costs; strengthen cooperation with private sector partners to enable extension and support services, to appropriate new production techniques and disseminated to farmers, are the main recommendations of the study.
