Museums’ contribution to the notion of food heritagisation

In this paper the authors explore how various agents – such as museums, destination companies or small businesses – have actively contributed to food heritagisation on the Lofoten Islands in Northern Norway. By examining the thematic elements and storylines that these agents convey to a broad audience, and by considering their role in the tourism sector, we assert that their collaboration serves as the driving force for preserving and promoting culinary traditions. We specifically focus on the significance of museums as pivotal institutions in shaping identity. We employ the concept of food heritagisation and test it on the Lofoten Islands as our primary example.Our findings offer an analysis of the challenges and opportunities faced by agents who contribute to food heritagisation on the Lofoten Islands. Moreover, we argue that museums, in conjunction with other local agents, are playing an increasingly influential role in the process of food heritagisation particularly in regions with high tourism. Ultimately, we conclude that the heritagisation of food on the Lofoten Islands represents an overall positive step towards fostering more sustainable and innovative forms of tourism. In this paper we explore how museums have contributed to food heritagisation in the region by looking at the themes and storylines that museums communicate to a wide public, and by considering the role they play in the tourism sector. The findings provide an analysis of challenges and opportunities for cultural organisations who contribute to food heritagisation. We look at the risks for producers and consumers and pay attention to opportunities, arguing that the heritagisation of food on the Lofoten Islands provides an overall positive move towards more sustainable and innovative tourism.

Reception and management of agrochemical containers in the CATs

The handling of agrochemical containers is subject to compliance with current laws for the operation and certification of systems that reduce contamination risks. The objective of this research is to design a computer system that allows greater control in the Temporary Collection Centers (CAT), from the reception of containers to the exit of waste to destination companies. For the development of the project, an exhaustive analysis was carried out in each of the processes. Requirements gathering techniques and the design of diagrams will be applied to detail the context of the processes using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The database was designed in MySQL and the programming was carried out in Visual Studio 2023. Results were obtained in various reports and statistics that allow managing the capacity of the CATs and having a reliable record of the origin of the containers, as well as a control and follow-up in the exit and delivery of waste to final destination companies. The project is a challenge of environmental impact and social responsibility that requires the intervention of different sectors, public and private, as well as the direct collaboration of agricultural producers.

ANALISIS DETERMINAN RETURN SAHAM PERUSAHAAN PUBLIK SUBSEKTOR TRANSPORTASI

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a negative market reaction in almost all sectors of the economy. But the transportation and logistics sector gave a positive market reaction with a surge in the stock price index which increased by 213%. This requires investors to provide an adequate assessment of the destination company to assess the possibility of obtaining capital gain or capital loss before deciding to invest. Stock return is one of the indicators used in evaluating the destination company. In order to be able to evaluate stock returns, several variables such as earnings per share, price earning ratio, price to book value, debt to equity ratio, return on assets, and net profit margin are thought to influence stock returns. This study aims to see the effect of earnings per share, price earning ratio, price to book value, debt to equity ratio, return on assets, and net profit margin on stock returns in the transportation subsector. This study uses data on 11 public companies in the transportation subsector listed on the IDX from December 2018 to December 2021 using multiple regression statistical analysis. The results of this study indicate that the price earning ratio has a negative and significant effect on stock returns, while the price to book value has a positive effect on stock returns. Earning per share variable, debt equity ratio, return on assets, and net profit margin have no significant effect on stock returns

ANALISIS KINERJA KEUANGAN BERDASARKAN RASIO PROFITABILITAS PADA PERUSAHAAN JASA PERHOTELANYANG TERDAFTAR DI BURSA EFEK INDONESIA

This study aims to analyze the ability of the hotel services company in the Indonesia Stock Exchange to generate profits with the total assets available. This ability is seen from the value of ROA and the value of ROE (return on investment of shareholders). The benefit of this research is to provide information material to investors in making investment decisions. This study uses secondary data, namely the Financial Statements of Hospitality Service Companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2014-2018 which can be accessed via the internet. The data analysis technique used in this research is ratio analysis. The ratio analysis used is the profitability ratio, which is represented by Return On Assets (ROA) and Return On Equity (ROI). The results showed that in these company profitability ratios from 2014 to 2018, in general, several companies experienced a decline, which indicates that the company's profitability ratio is getting less good. Of the 5 hotel services companies studied, the authors also concluded that the Destination Company Tirta Nusantara Tbk. (PDES) is a hotel service company that has the best profitability ratio. This means that this company is a hotel service company listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange that has the best financial performance. Meanwhile, Golden Eagle Energy Tbk. (SMMT) is a hotel service company that has the worst profitability ratio. Based on the research results, it is recommended that the management of the hotel services listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange be able to maintain and even improve their performance from year to year. The company is also expected to be able to manage its assets properly so that the company's performance will increase and further research uses all the ratios in operational variables to assess the company's financial performance.

Asian students’ brain circulation and Japanese companies

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between the brain circulation of Asian graduates of Japanese universities and Japanese companies by picking up China, Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam, which are among the top countries which send students to Japan and host Japan-affiliated companies. Design/methodology/approach Questionnaire responses of Japanese university graduates from four countries are compared, especially between those who work for Japanese companies in Japan and in their countries of origin (COO), coupled with existent data analysis, interviews of these graduates and human resources (HR) managers/executives of Japanese companies. Findings A mobility of Japanese university graduates from Japan to their COO has been promoted by an increase in Japan-affiliated companies in their COO, which tend to offer better working environment than Japanese companies in Japan. Practical implications Japanese companies need to provide better working conditions to able local staff in overseas subsidiaries in order to recruit and retain the returned graduates of Japanese universities and to realize mutually beneficial brain circulation. Originality/value The role and constraints of study destination companies in relation with international students’ brain circulation were explored based on empirical study.

Analisa Algoritma SHA-256 Untuk Mendeteksi Orisinalitas Citra Digital

In the digital era, changing human habits, one of the changing habits is in applying for someone's job. Before the digital era, applying for a job by sending an application to the address of the destination company. In the digital era, as now, applying for jobs can be done boldly, and sent in softcopy. This softcopy file forms a digital image that can be easily manipulated. How would it be difficult for the receiving committee to determine the original file with the manipulated a file. With the existing questions, we need a technique that can be used to request the originality of the job application file. One technique that can be used is the hash function that exists in cryptography. The hash function is a one-way function that can be used to find a message. If applied to digital images, the originality of the image can be recognized. The algorithm in the hash function used is Secure Hash Algorithm 256 (SHA256) until now this algorithm cannot be solved by cryptanalysts. By applying the Secure Hash Algorithm 256 algorithm, it will make it easier and faster to access the originality of digital images.

Peran Komitmen Organisasi dalam Menurunkan Pengaruh Negatif Turnover Intention terhadap Kinerja Karyawan (Studi kasus: GroupM Indonesia)

Information about the factors that influence turnover intention is needed by managerial in providing strategic steps to overcome the negative effects of high turnover intention. This study aims to analyze the effect of turnover intention on employee performance with organizational commitment as a moderator variable. The sampling method used was the proportionate stratified random sampling technique. The research data used respondents' perceptions of the variables, then analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method. The results of this study indicate that turnover intention has a negative relation toward employee performance and commitment, although not significant. This condition can occur because of tugging to get high-performing talents in the service industry. This condition is triggered by the increasingly open competition in the world of work so that employees are aware of having to create a positive impression for the company to be left, which will usually be a recommendation to the next destination company. High organizational commitment is an important factor in improving employee performance. High organizational commitment will reduce the desire of employees to leave a company (turnover intention) and reduce the negative influence on employee performance, so that despite high turnover intention, employee performance is remaining high. This happens especially in service companies whose main capital is human resources.

Role and importance of destination management companies in developing Croatian tourist destinations

Specific wishes, needs and demands of modern consumers/tourists, various infrastructural problems and the lack of effective tourist strategies in most Croatian tourist destinations create the need for an effective destination management which will define and come up with effective destination policy for development and improvement of tourism and connect public and private sectors at the destination. Destination management companies which have a highly professional team of tourist experts and managers can influence the tourist industry development at Croatian tourist destinations. Restructuring receptive tourist agencies into destination companies or establishing destination management companies can affect increasing the pleasure of tourists and excursionists, as well as the development of the tourist product of the destination.

Effects of Executive Migrations and Subsequent Restructuring Events

We consider whether the market conditions its reactions to an executive's move from an Origin Company to a Destination Company on the executive's past performance and any other information impounded in the market reaction to the executive's emigration from the Origin Company. We also examine whether the market perceives a benefit in the hiring of an executive with an industry-specific background. We find that, with regard to migration events, the performance of the Origin Company-accounting and stock-before the executive's migration and the market reaction to the emigration are positively associated with the market reaction to the immigration event only when the Origin Company and the Destination Company are members of the same industry. With respect to an Origin Company's contiguously subsequent write-off and restructuring events, we conjecture that subsequent restructuring events signal hitherto unrecognized shortcomings of the emigrating executive. We find that, ceteris paribus, the market reaction to the Destination Company's stock at the time of the Origin Company's announcement of a post-immigration restructuring is significantly negative, but again only when the Origin Company and the Destination Company are members of the same industry. Furthermore, contrary to previous studies, we find that Origin Companies' and Destination Companies' stocks exhibit negative reactions to their own restructuring events.

Exploring knowledge transfer within manufacturing networks and codified information characteristics: the hidden dangers of inaccurate information

Technology transfer is an important aspect of, and takes frequently place in, international manufacturing networks. A key component of a specific technology is the knowledge and information that accompanies it. This study explores the difficulties with transferring technological knowledge and codified, i.e. explicit, information and the causes of these difficulties. Case studies were carried out in the aircraft industry to identify problems that arise with the transfer of information. The aircraft industry is a particularly interesting industry to study because of the emphasis in this sector on codified information. It was found that the accuracy of information has two distinct aspects: a part that is independent of the destination company and a part that is dependent on the destination company. The first aspect, termed reliability, is time dependent. The second aspect, suitability, depends especially on the destination company’s knowledge about the source company’s information formatting methods. Illustrations of the consequences of information inaccuracy are included.

Agile manufacturing and technology transfer to industrialising countries

One of the requirements of agile manufacturing, the necessity to gain flexibility, can be reached by using a supplier network. A possible way to develop a supplier network is by subcontracting to parties in industrialising countries. In most cases, it is necessary to transfer technology. The aircraft industry is an industry in which such technology transfer frequently takes place. This research project examined the process and consequences of technology transfer in the field of manufacturing. Four case studies were carried out in the aircraft industry. The case studies showed that there are two types of technology transfer technology selling and technology sharing. Technology sharing frequently takes place in the aircraft industry. The results indicate that "Destination Companies" hardly benefited technologically from technology sharing because the Destination Company is selected for its existing capabilities. In addition, it is questionable whether production technology transfer contributes to economic growth for industrially developing countries. "Source Companies" that want to work towards agile manufacturing have limited options for technology transfer towards industrially developing countries due to the requirements placed upon the capabilities of the Destination Company and the infrastructure requirements for countries.

Technology Transfer and Learning

Despite the fact that international technology transfer has been widely studied its management still encounters many difficulties. To fully understand the issues that are relevant to the process of transferring production technology, it is necessary to determine the important factors that influence this process. Learning curves are often used as a means of determining the time required to become familiar with a transferred technology. The cases discussed in this paper have all employed learning curves, which were established at the outset of the transfer process and which turned out to be incorrect. As a consequence the envisaged efficiencies were not obtained. This phenomenon is partly due to the fact that when technology is transferred to a relatively inexperienced 'destination company', the curve is established based on the circumstances of the 'source company'. The case study findings lead to the conclusion that to establish a realistic curve a more comprehensive method is required than simply basing anticipated performance on that achieved at the source company.
