Thus, this study provides an overview of the development of psychology research in the field of tourism using bibliometric analysis. From several existing research topics, future research can be carried out, such as the topic of tourism psychology related to social media, tourism psychology related to the content, psychologically what underlies people's desire to travel religiously, and topics related to innovation in tourism psychology. This information can be the basis for understanding research trends, collaborations between researchers, and research topics that are most relevant in relation to the psychology of tourism.

21세기 한국고대사의 연구 성과와 지평의 확장 - 새롭게, 세밀하게 그리고 경계를 넘어 -

A major feature of Korean ancient history research since 2000 is the quantitative increase in research papers, like other Korean history research fields. The reasons are the increase in researchers and academic journals, the development of computer devices and digital media, the establishment of DBs for research data, quantitative research evaluation systems, large research projects of various institutions, and political and diplomatic factors. In general, the proportion of research trends is still high in political history, foreign relations history, and cultural history, but micro-historical research has been increasing rather than large discourse since the 1990s.BR This paper summarizes the research results of Korean ancient history in two aspects, focusing on doctorate thesis and books after the 2000s. The first is the study on the historical materials. It summarized the reassessment on historical documents, research on editions of historical documents, new readings or re-examination of epigraph materials, and research on newly excavated wooden tablets and memorial inscriptions. The second is the expansion and diversification of existing research topics. It summarized the studies on laws, administrative systems, national rituals, ritual system, and capital city focusing on institutional history. In particular, in recent topics that have attracted attention, the need for comparison with the cases of China and Japan or interdisciplinary research has increased.BR Since the 2000s, research results have been accumulated to discover new historical materials or review basic historical materials. On the other hand, according to changes in society, research areas were diversified and new methodologies were developed, and research topics were subdivided and specialized accordingly.BR Nevertheless, there is still a direction to emphasize or move forward. The first is to comprehensively review historical materials by perspectives and methods not only in historical studies but also in various fields on the premise of empirical analysis of literature and archaeological data. On the basis of such research, we can expect the establishment of

Bibliometric Analysis on Satisfaction and Loyalty in Homestay

This study aims to determine the mapping of research into several scopes of the tourism sector by discussing several topic parameters regarding satisfaction, loyalty, and homestay which were published during 2017 – 2022 and indexed on Google Scholar, analyzing topics related to Satisfaction and Loyalty in Homestay. This study uses a qualitative method with a thematic analysis approach as a data analysis method. This research utilizes the Publish or Perish (PoP) application to collect research data from research results indexed on Google Scholar by entering the keywords "Satisfaction and Loyalty in Homestay". Determination of the sample was carried out by screening publications in the form of journal articles, conference proceedings, book chapters, and books published from 2017-2022. The research data was analyzed using the VoS Viewer application. The results of mapping based on keywords illustrate that there is a research relationship related to the topic of Customer Loyalty with Effect, Guest Satisfaction, and homestay management, then the topic Effect is closely related to customer loyalty, satisfaction, development, perceived value, and tourism. Furthermore, research on the topic of tourism is closely related to community, development, effects, attractiveness, destination loyalty, homestay facilities, and other topics. From several existing research topics, future research can be carried out, such as the topic of risk management associated with the satisfaction and loyalty of tourists staying in homestays. This research was conducted only limited to data sources from Google Scholar so that future research can be developed with data sources originating from Scopus, Crossref, and IEEEXplore.

Rank-Based Decomposable Losses in Machine Learning: A Survey.

Recent works have revealed an essential paradigm in designing loss functions that differentiate individual losses versus aggregate losses. The individual loss measures the quality of the model on a sample, while the aggregate loss combines individual losses/scores over each training sample. Both have a common procedure that aggregates a set of individual values to a single numerical value. The ranking order reflects the most fundamental relation among individual values in designing losses. In addition, decomposability, in which a loss can be decomposed into an ensemble of individual terms, becomes a significant property of organizing losses/scores. This survey provides a systematic and comprehensive review of rank-based decomposable losses in machine learning. Specifically, we provide a new taxonomy of loss functions that follows the perspectives of aggregate loss and individual loss. We identify the aggregator to form such losses, which are examples of set functions. We organize the rank-based decomposable losses into eight categories. Following these categories, we review the literature on rank-based aggregate losses and rank-based individual losses. We describe general formulas for these losses and connect them with existing research topics. We also suggest future research directions spanning unexplored, remaining, and emerging issues in rank-based decomposable losses.

Executives' unethical behaviour with directions for future research.

Executives' unethical behaviour is a common phenomenon in business practice and a hot topic for academic research, which has a profound negative impact on the healthy development of our economy and society. In the past two decades, several scholars from different disciplines con-ducted theoretical research and practical explorations on the issue of senior executives' (un)ethical behaviour and achieved certain research results. However, the existing research in this field still has problems, such as a lack of systematic integration of research results, unclear research hotspots and unclear development directions. Thus, the present study through a bibliometric analysis, conducted a content coding of these 428 papers identified from 2000 to 2020, constructed a theoretical framework by inductively identifying the corresponding concepts. By reviewing the progress of existing research topics, this study summarised a research framework of executives' unethical behaviour from the perspectives of the antecedents, the behaviour itself and the consequences of unethical behaviour. The study further proposed future research trends and recommendations for conducting research on executives' unethical behaviour under emerging market scenarios. The research results provide new ideas for developing the theory of executives' unethical behaviour and promote the in-depth development of the research on executives' unethical behaviour in the context of emerging markets.

긍정 심리학의 연구 동향

Objectives Researchers have described 24 years of the development of positive psychology in three waves, from its introduction in 1998 to the present. This study investigates how major research topics in positive psychology have changed over time by referring to journals that represent positive psychology. Further, it explores its development process to provide implications for future research. Methods A total of 788 journal articles published between 2006 and 2021, since the publication of the Journal of Positive Psychology, were collected. Network analysis was conducted on 1,508 keywords extracted from these journal articles using NetMiner 4.3. Results During the first wave of positive psychology between 2006 and 2010, studies on well-being, happiness, and life satisfaction were actively conducted. Many researchers focused on revealing individuals’ positive traits and experiences that could explain the abovementioned areas. Throughout the second wave between 2011 and 2015, studies on character strengths flourished, and the appearance frequency of keywords related to personal strengths and virtues drastically increased. During the third wave between 2016 and 2021, keywords referring to study participants and methodologies were diversified, the connectivity between different research topics became apparent, and in-depth studies of existing research topics were continuously pursued. Additionally, the frequency of keywords related to interventions highly increased. Conclusions This study discusses the most debated topics over the past 16 years in the field of positive psychology by systematically organizing and presenting the research trends in positive psychology using keyword network analysis.

Identifying a common pattern within ancestors of emerging topics for pan-domain topic emergence prediction

The shared interest among existing research topics matures over time until it emerges as a topic of its own. This paper detects emerging topics as well as general predictor models spanning multiple research domains through the network-based topic evolution approach, which offers additional topic evolution capabilities such as extrapolation of data and separation of topic transition and correlation. Topics are represented as their neighbors in the past, or ancestors, and their structural properties are used to train binary classification models in capturing the materialization of such topics. The entirety of 197 million publications within the Microsoft Academic Graph was used to build multiple datasets, where machine learning algorithms were trained with structural features resulting in over 0.98 area under the precision–recall curve. General topic emergence predictor equations are then proposed based on the models trained specifically for each domain, which were able to capture a common pattern shared by emerging topics in general.

Exploring Current Status and Evolutionary Trends on the Paid Use of State-Owned Forest Resources in China: A Bibliometric Perspective

State-owned forest resources occupy an important position in China, and the development of their paid use will help to improve the economic benefits of these resources. For this study, 451 journal documents involving the paid use of state-owned forest resources in the CNKI database of China from 2008 to 2021 were selected as samples. Combining qualitative reviews with quantitative analysis, statistical analysis software was used as an analytical tool. The knowledge maps can be visualized by cluster analysis, multidimensional scaling (MDS), and co-occurrence network analysis. The change laws of this research in the time dimension were obtained using developing trend analysis. The results are as follows: 1. The number of research documents on the paid use of state-owned forest resources is increasing. 2. The core authors account for 29.27%; the research impact is relatively scattered. 3. Research institutions are primarily colleges and universities. 4. The support of provincially funded projects accounts for the highest proportion. 5. There is a relatively stable number of journals in this research field. Forestry Economy, Green Science and Technology and China Forestry Economy are the top three journals in terms of citation impact. 6. The existing research topics mainly focus on the development status of paid use, forest tourism and forest health, and the under-forestry economy (under-forestry planting, breeding, and product processing). 7. The intermediary centralities of state-owned forest farms and under-forestry economy are the highest, followed by forest tourism and forest experience, etc. With time and the promulgation of policies, the research focus in this field has gradually shifted from forest assets and forestry economics to ecotourism and forest health, and research on forest carbon sequestration is a technical branch worthy of attention in the future.

Li), leading journals (see, i.e., Expert Systems with Applications) or academic institutions that have headed the scientific analysis of this business phenomenon. Likewise, it has been possible to identify three main areas in which the research on business failure has been focused: business, management and accounting; economics, econometrics and finance; and social sciences. In addition, a complete, synthesised and organised summary of the various definitions, perspectives and research trends are presented.

Decentralized and Self-Sovereign Identity: Systematic Mapping Study

Self-Sovereign Identity is an emerging, user-centric, decentralized identity approach utilizing some form of decentralized technology. It provides a means for digital identification without reliance on any external authority, enabling entities to control their identity and data flow during digital interactions while enhancing security and privacy. With the rise of blockchain technology, Self-Sovereign Identity is gathering momentum in academia and industry while the number of research papers increases rapidly. Yet Self-Sovereign Identity is still in a young unstructured field in its early stages of research. Thus, a systematic mapping methodology was adopted to provide a coarse-grained overview of decentralized and Self-Sovereign Identity and structure the research area by identifying, analyzing, and classifying the research papers according to predefined parameters, precisely according to their contribution, application domain, IT field, research type, research method, and place of publication. Furthermore, the nature and scope of the research are determined, meanwhile existing research topics, gained insights into trends, demographics, challenges, gaps, and opportunities for future research are also presented.

A Survey on Electric Buses—Energy Storage, Power Management, and Charging Scheduling

In recent years, aiming to reduce the metropolitan air pollution caused by fossil fuel-powered vehicles, the electrification of transportation, such as electric vehicles (EVs) and electric buses (EBs), has attracted great attention from the automobile industry, academia, and public transportation. EBs, driven by decarbonized electricity, can reduce the air pollution and noise level. Besides, they can also recover electricity from regenerative braking. Recent years have witnessed continuous works on the topics of EB energy storage, power management, and charging scheduling. In this review, we have comprehensively surveyed three primary parts: important components; existing research topics; and open issues of EBs. Specifically, we first introduce the important components of EBs, including energy storage systems, powertrains, interleaving elements and electric motors, and driving cycles. Then, we review the existing research topics of EBs, including the energy storage system sizing, power/energy management, range remedy methods, charging design/scheduling, and trial projects. At last, extending from existing literatures, we further propose the future research opportunities and ongoing challenges, such as extending EV related research to EBs, EB charging demand modeling, and EB impact on power systems.

Concept and engineering development of cyber physical production systems: a systematic literature review

Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs) play a crucial role in the Industry 4.0 paradigm. The application of CPSs in production and manufacturing environments gave rise to the term Cyber Physical Production Systems (CPPSs). There is a growing interest in CPPSs, yet research in this area is scattered and needs to be reviewed for understanding their development status and maturity. The aim of this study is to carry out a systematic literature review (SLR) to analyze the current research activities on CPPSs according to their contributions to the engineering life cycle of such production system. Firstly, a method for SLR is presented. Then, literature analysis of CPPSs is conducted to present research activities in the light of the concept development and engineering development stages. Finally, based on the results of the literature analysis, a concept map of CPPSs research is proposed, which depicts the existing research topics in the engineering life cycle of CPPSs. And we exploit it to propose a research agenda of the CPPSs integration process required to ensure their efficient industrial use. Findings of this review can help researchers to examine the maturity of the development status of CPPSs, to discover which phases require improvement, and to know the future research directions for their industrial practices.

Foreign national and ethnic minority prisoners’ participation in formally organized occupations in prisons: A scoping review

ABSTRACT This scoping review investigated foreign national and ethnic minority prisoners’ participation in formally organized occupations (prison activities) such as active citizenship, healthcare and treatment, leisure time, and reintegration occupations. It aimed to: (1) map available studies on both groups of prisoners’ participation in these occupations within prisons, and (2) evaluate existing research topics on participation and types of occupations available in prisons. Following a search in electronic databases, manual searches, and expert consultation, 36 studies met the inclusion criteria. Data from these studies were extracted and synthesized qualitatively. The results demonstrate that most literature has focused on ethnic minorities’ participation, rather than that of foreign nationals. There was also unequal research attention regarding types of prison occupations studied, with healthcare and treatment programs predominating. In addition, this review provides some evidence for the importance of acknowledging and considering the ‘cultural’ diversity among prisoners in providing occupations to them. Research gaps and future research avenues on this topic are identified. Finally, the limitations and the implications of this review are considered.

The Many AI Challenges of Hearthstone

Since the inception of artificial intelligence, games have benchmarked algorithmic advances. Recent success in classic board games such as Chess and Go have left space for video games that pose related yet different sets of challenges. With this shifted focus, the set of AI problems associated with video games has expanded from simply playing these games to win, to include playing games in particular styles, generating game content, modeling players, etc. Different games pose different challenges for AI systems, and several such AI challenges can typically be addressed in the same game. In this article we analyze the popular collectible card game Hearthstone published by Blizzard in 2014, and describe a varied set of interesting AI challenges it poses. Despite their popularity and associated interesting challenges, collectible card games are relatively understudied in the AI community. By analyzing a single game in-depth, we get a glimpse of the entire field of AI and games through the lens of a single game, discovering a few new variations on existing research topics.

Thirteen years of SysML: a systematic mapping study

The OMG standard Systems Modeling Language (SysML) has been on the market for about thirteen years. This standard is an extended subset of UML providing a graphical modeling language for designing complex systems by considering software as well as hardware parts. Over the period of thirteen years, many publications have covered various aspects of SysML in different research fields. The aim of this paper is to conduct a systematic mapping study about SysML to identify the different categories of papers, (i) to get an overview of existing research topics and groups, (ii) to identify whether there are any publication trends, and (iii) to uncover possible missing links. We followed the guidelines for conducting a systematic mapping study by Petersen et al. (Inf Softw Technol 64:1–18, 2015) to analyze SysML publications from 2005 to 2017. Our analysis revealed the following main findings: (i) there is a growing scientific interest in SysML in the last years particularly in the research field of Software Engineering, (ii) SysML is mostly used in the design or validation phase, rather than in the implementation phase, (iii) the most commonly used diagram types are the SysML-specific requirement diagram, parametric diagram, and block diagram, together with the activity diagram and state machine diagram known from UML, (iv) SysML is a specific UML profile mostly used in systems engineering; however, the language has to be customized to accommodate domain-specific aspects, (v) related to collaborations for SysML research over the world, there are more individual research groups than large international networks. This study provides a solid basis for classifying existing approaches for SysML. Researchers can use our results (i) for identifying open research issues, (ii) for a better understanding of the state of the art, and (iii) as a reference for finding specific approaches about SysML.

Research Roadmap Of Bioremediation: Review Of In Situ Method On Land Bioremediation

The existence of a study that can map various existing research topics with the intention of providing information to researchers about the research gap in order to determine the position of research is needed. This study was conducted by analyzing the theme of 250 bioremediation scopus indexed international journals from 1980s until 2015 to obtain the distribution of research, trending topic, hot topic, and potential topics in the future. The distribution of research is grouped based on bioremediation objectives, type of pollutants, type of research, aspects of study and bioremediation techniques used. The results showed that 84.5% of the bioremediation researchs were land bioremediation and 34% were heavy metal bioremediation. Those studies are still dominated by laboratory research (75.9%), mainly microbial aspects (59%) and 82.9% using bioreactor as bioremediation techniques in the laboratory. In situ research still had a small portion (12.9%). The trending topic of the last ten years was the land bioremediation with hydrocarbons contamination and the hot topic was the land bioremediation with heavy metal contamination. Bioremediation of polluted groundwater by in situ various pollutants will become a potential topic in the future.

Linguistic Anthropology in 2012: Language Matter(s)

ABSTRACTIn this article, I discuss the accomplishments of scholars of language and culture in 2012 and the questions raised by those accomplishments. I review matters of language—expansions and refinements of existing research topics, including linguistic relativity, language socialization, sociolinguistic variation, and language ideologies. I then consider a trend of research on topics of embodiment, materiality, and the senses, discussing the matter (in the physics sense) of language. I then use the term engagement to comment on developments in research on language endangerment, language circulation and shift, language and health, language and education, and language and social justice. This is rooted in the notion that language makes a difference (or matters) in cultural practice. I conclude with a brief discussion of the ontology of language, the epistemology of linguistic anthropology, and the roles of scholars of language and culture in anthropology as a whole.

대구시 도시근린공원의 접근성에 따른 환경적 형평성 분석

본 연구는 환경정의 관점에서 도시근린공원의 접근성에 따른 형평성을 대구시를 사례로 분석하였다. 이를 위해 근린공원의 공간통계학적 분포 특성을 살펴 본 후, 최소거리 및 커버리지 접근 방법을 이용하여 접근성을 측정하였다. 여기에서 도출된 접근성에 따른 사회 경제적 특성을 비교하기 위해 근접비율, 맨 휘트니 U 검정, 로지스틱 회귀분석 등과 같은 기술적 추론적 통계를 이용하여 분석하였다. 최소거리 분석에서는 자치구 중 달서구가 근린공원에 대한 접근성이 가장 양호하며, 동구가 가장 불량한 것으로 나타났다. 커버리지 분석에서는 500m와 1,000m 모두 접근성이 가장 양호한 자치구는 달서구, 가장 불량한 자치구는 동구와 남구로 분석되었다. 환경적 형평성 분석 결과 구시가지는 대부분 고령자비율에서 환경적 형평성이 있는 것으로 나타났고, 인구밀도 및 미성년자 비율에서 불형평성이 나타났다. 신시가지는 대부분 인구밀도 및 미성년자 비율에서 환경적 형평성이 있는 것으로 나타났고, 고령자비율과 기초생활수급자비율 및 무상주택비율에서 불형평성이 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 정량적인 도시공원정책에 의한 대구시 도시공원의 조성과정 및 도시개발과정과 영구임대주택의 입지패턴과 밀접한 연관성을 가지고 있었다. 본 연구는 기존의 유해시설과 관련된 환경정의 연구의 주제를 확장하였으며, 도출된 분석결과는 대구시에서 사회 경제적 특성을 반영한 도시공원정책을 수립할 때 기초자료로 활용될 수 있다. This study aims to investigate the environmental equity of the accessibility to urban neighborhood parks in the city of Daegu. The spatial distribution of urban neighborhood parks was explored by spatial statistics and the spatial accessibility to them was then evaluated by both minimum distance and coverage approaches. Descriptive and inferential statistics such as proximity ratio, Mann Whitney U test, and logistic regression were used for comparing the socioeconomic characteristics over different accessibilities to the neighborhood parks and then testing the distributional inequity hypothesis. The results from the minimum distance method indicated that Dalseo-gu had the best accessibility to the neighborhood parks while Dong-gu had the worst accessibility. It was apparent with the coverage method that Dalseo-gu had the best accessibility whereas Dong-gu and Nam-gu had the worst accessibility to the neighborhood parks at 500m and 1,000m buffer distances. There existed the spatial pattern of environmental inequity in old towns with respect to population density and the percentage of people under the age of 18. The spatial pattern of environmental inequity in new towns was explored on the basis of the percentage of people over the age of 65, the percentage of people below the poverty level, and the percentage of free of charge rental housing. These results were closely related to the development process of urban parks in Daegu stimulated by the quantitative urban park policy, urban development process, and residential location pattern such as permanent rental housing and free of charge rental housing. This study further extends the existing research topics of environmental justice related to the distributional inequity of environmental disamenities and hazards by focusing on environmental amenities such as urban neighborhood parks. The results from this study can be used in making the decisions for urban park management and setting up urban park policy with considering the social geography of Daegu.

Structure evolving systems and control in integrated design

Existing methods in Systems and Control deal predominantly with Fixed Systems, that have been designed in the past, and for which the control design has to be performed. The new paradigm of Structure Evolving Systems (SES), expresses a new form of system complexity where the components, interconnection topology, measurement-actuation schemes may not be fixed, the control scheme also may vary within the system-lifecycle and different views of the system of varying complexity may be required by the designer. Such systems emerge in many application domains and in the engineering context in problems such as integrated system design, integrated operations, re-engineering, lifecycle design issues, networks, etc. The paper focuses on the Integrated Engineering Design (IED), which is revealed as a typical structure evolution process that is strongly linked to Control Theory and Design type problems. It is shown, that the formation of the system, which is finally used for control design evolves during the earlier design stages and that process synthesis and overall instrumentation are critical stages of this evolutionary process that shapes the final system structure and thus the potential for control design. The paper aims at revealing the control theory context of the evolutionary mechanism in overall system design by defining a number of generic clusters of system structure evolution problems and by establishing links with existing areas of control theory. Different aspects of model evolution during the overall design are identified which include cases such as: (i) Time-dependent evolution of system models from “early” to “late” stages of design. (ii) Design stage-dependent evolution from conceptualisation to process synthesis and to overall instrumentation. (iii) Redesign of given systems and constrained system evolution. Within each cluster a number of well defined new Control Theory problems are introduced, which may be studied within the structural methodologies framework of Linear Systems. The problems posed have a general systems character, but the emphasis here is on Linear Systems; an overview of relevant results is given and links with existing research topics are established. The paper defines the Structural Control Theoretic context of an important family of complex systems emerging in engineering design and defines a new research agenda for structural methods of Control Theory.
