Rural tourism in Bali: towards a conflict-based tourism resource typology and management

ABSTRACT Although conflicts over resource utilisation have been widely discussed, tourism resource typology has not been explored clearly from a conflict-based perspective. Based on a case study of two Balinese villages, this research extends the previous literature by exploring tourism resource typology and management. The findings reveal four typologies with a two-dimensional matrix: activity and facility-based resources on one axis and localised and ubiquitous resources on another. The resource management model applies three steps: planning, regulating and implementing. The findings contribute to practical suggestions about rural tourism development within a strong spiritual context by emphasising spiritual resources and development. They also encourage a counterbalance towards spiritual development and suggest a triadic intermingling in resource management. Several directions for future research are suggested in the rural tourism domain, especially for developing countries.

An Effective Multi-Agent Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm for QoS-Aware Cloud Service Composition

In order to improve the efficiency of wireless network virtualization resource processing, this paper combines the dynamic resource allocation algorithm to construct a wireless network virtualization resource sharing model. This paper proposes a task-oriented resource management model and uses the task-oriented TRS model to describe resources and service processes, reducing the complexity of formulating resource allocation strategies. Moreover, this paper comprehensively considers factors such as centralized coordination control cost and limited domain topology visibility to improve the dynamic resource allocation algorithm. Through the abstraction and unified representation of network resources, resource sharing, and efficient reuse, the coexistence and integration of heterogeneous wireless networks can be realized. Wireless network virtualization can decouple complex and diverse network management and control functions from hardware and extract them to the upper layer for unified coordination and management, thereby reducing network management costs and improving network management and control efficiency

An adaptive social forestry model in West Papua based on cultural forests and the main potential of NTFPS: Theory and practice

The presence of the Job Creation Law Number 11 of 2020 opened a new discourse on social forestry policy in Indonesia. The discourse on the concept of forest resource management is used as the basis for the theory and practice of local community-based development. The purpose of this paper is to develop a model of adaptive natural resource management for the development of site-scale social forestry. As potential superior Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs), the types of Papuan nutmeg and black fruit have been utilized by local communities for generations. A mixed method using descriptive system analysis was used in developing the concept of cultural forest. The results of the study found that a cultural-forest-based adaptive natural resource management scenario in West Papua from case studies on the use of nutmeg in Fakfak and black fruit districts in Teluk Wondama district can be designed as a model for social forestry at the site level. The three landscape typologies of natural forest habitat, secondary forest and home gardens are a systemic-holistic unit that demonstrates certainty of access and ownership for determining site-scale social forestry schemes in West Papua.

Boundary resource management in innovation ecosystems: The case of e-commerce

Major challenges in contemporary information systems development demand new development approaches, such as innovation ecosystems, consisting of a focal innovation platform surrounded by independent developers. The attraction of third-party developers and the amplification of generativity in extension development call for sophisticated boundary resources. As demarcation points between an innovation platform and external developers, boundary resources entail a strategic value and need to be managed carefully. However, existing research does not provide an approach for the holistic management of boundary resources from design to retirement. We apply a design science research approach consisting of two design cycles involving a literature review identifying 26 application lifecycles and the analysis of eight innovation platforms in e-commerce. We evaluated the model for boundary resource management in interviews with nine domain experts. We develop an integrated boundary resource management lifecycle as a specialization of application lifecycle management for the holistic management of boundary resources in innovation ecosystems addressing third-party developers. The boundary resource management lifecycle consists of four layers: boundary resource governance, continuous communication, technical boundary resources, and supplementary boundary resources. It decouples technical and supplementary boundary resources while emphasizing their intertwined nature for ecosystem participants. Owners of innovation platforms can instantiate the reference procedure model for attracting developers.

Medium Access Control Techniques for Massive Machine-Type Communications in Cellular IoT Networks

A key component of the Internet of things (IoT) ecosystem is wide-area network connectivity, for which cellular network technologies are a promising option through their support of massive machine-type communications (mMTC). However, numerous devices transmitting sporadically small data packets in a highly synchronized way can generate overload on the radio access network. This situation leads to a shortage of resources, especially those associated with the random access procedure for contention, control, and data transmission, causing preamble collision, control message blocking, and data collision. As a result, mMTC traffic can jeopardize the provisioning of quality of service (QoS) to end-devices, decrease the network efficiency, and increase access latency and device energy consumption. This paper proposes medium access control (MAC) techniques for addressing problems related to the support of mMTC in cellularnetworks. First, a solution for allocating control resources with QoS provisioning and access differentiation is provided, including a resource management model, a scheduling algorithm, and a message prioritization policy. Second, a mechanism for reducing data collisions is also proposed. This solution comprises a protocol in which every device with scheduled retransmission uses a probabilistic policy to decide whether to retransmit, a novel method at the device to estimate the number of nodes trying random access, and two different retransmission policies employing this estimation. Results show that the proposals support QoS, decrease access latency, decrease the device energy consumption, and increase resource utilization under massive random access.

A new fog computing resource management (FRM) model based on hybrid load balancing and scheduling for critical healthcare applications

Critical healthcare application tasks require a real-time response because it affects patients’ life. Fog computing is the best solution to get a fast response and less energy consumption in healthcare. However, current solutions face difficulties in scheduling the tasks to the correct computing devices based on their priorities and capacity to meet the tasks’ deadlines and resource limitations with minimal latency. Furthermore, challenges of load balancing and prioritization are raised when dealing with inadequate computing resources and telecommunication networks while obtaining the best scheduling of emergency healthcare tasks. In this study, a fog computing resource management (FRM) model is proposed, which the proposed model has three main solutions. Firstly, resource availability is calculated according to the average execution time of each task. Secondly, load balancing is enhanced by proposing a hybrid approach that combines the multi-agent load balancing algorithm and the throttled load balancing algorithm. Thirdly, task scheduling is done based on priority, resource availability, and load balancing. The results have been acquired using the iFogSim toolkit. Two datasets are used in this study, the blood pressure dataset was acquired from the UTeM clinic, and the ECG dataset was acquired from the University of California at Irvine. Both datasets are integrated to enlarge the attributes and get accurate results. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of managing resources and optimizing task scheduling and balancing in a fog computing environment. In comparison with other research studies, the FRM model outperforms delay by 55%, response time by 72%, cost by 72%, and energy consumption by 70%.

The HRM Model Based on Competency Model in the Context of New Age Intelligence

In the new era of rapid technological development, new technologies are emerging: mobile positioning technology, face recognition technology, two-dimensional code technology, artificial intelligence technology, etc. In the trend of the times, these emerging technologies continue to penetrate into people’s daily life and influence their social habits. At present, the shadow of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence has already appeared in human resource management and organizational behavior, and the application of these emerging technologies will certainly promote the change of human resource management and organizational behavior and have a double impact on human resource management and organizational behavior. On the one hand, emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence bring new opportunities for the development of human resources, which can not only improve the efficiency of human resource management, optimize human resource organizational behavior, and accelerate the transformation of enterprise management mode. On the other hand, the application of these emerging technologies also brings new challenges for HR development and management: the enterprises’ demand for low-end positions decreases, increasing the employment pressure in the talent market; the enterprises’ development faces transformation and rectification, increasing the difficulty of survival of small enterprises; the employment difficulties and development prospects of HR departments are uncertain. In the context of the new era of intelligence, the impact of emerging technologies on human resource management and organizational behavior is bound to intensify, and enterprises should innovate ideas and integrate new ways and methods to upgrade the traditional human resource management model and seize the opportunity to promote human resource management changes, so that emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence can inject new vitality into modern human resource management. Based on this, this paper proposes an enterprise HR management strategy based on the competency model and combines it with a practical case study and finds that the strategy has been recognized by 91% of employees within the company and has effectively improved the efficiency of HR management.

Exploring the Impacts of Power Grid Signals on Data Center Operations Using a Receding-Horizon Scheduling Model

Data centers (DCs) can help decarbonize the power grid by helping absorb renewable power (e.g., wind and solar) due to their ability to shift power loads across space and time. However, to harness such load-shifting flexibility, it is necessary to understand how grid signals (carbon signals and market price/load allocations) affect DC operations. An obstacle that arises here is the lack of computationally-tractable DC operation models that can capture objectives, constraints, and information flows that arise at the interface of DCs and the power grid. To address this gap, we present a receding-horizon resource management model (a mixed-integer programming model) that captures the resource management layer between the DC scheduler and the grid while accounting for logical constraints, different types of objectives, and forecasts of incoming job profiles and of available computing capacity. We use our model to conduct extensive case studies based on public data from Microsoft Azure and MISO. Our studies show that DCs can provide significant temporal load-shifting flexibility that results in reduced carbon emissions and peak demand charges. Models and case studies are shared as easy-to-use Julia code.

The Moderated-Mediation Effect of Job Engagement and Psychological Capital Focus in the Relationship between Hotel Employees’ Family Incivility on and Workplace Well-being

Based on the conservation of resources theory, this paper analyzes the impact of family incivility on hotel employees’ workplace well-being through the work-family resource model and discusses the mediating role of job engagement and the moderating role of psychological capital. Through collecting 382 valid questionnaires, the results show that: family incivility is significantly negatively correlated with employees’ workplace well-being. Job engagement plays a partial mediating role in the influence of family incivility on employees’ workplace well-being. Psychological capital plays a moderating role in the negative effect of family incivility on job engagement. Psychological capital moderates the indirect effect of family incivility on their workplace well-being through job engagement. In other words, when the psychological capital level of hotel employees is high, the negative impact of family incivility on workplace well-being through job engagement will be weakened. The conclusion of this study can not only expand the relevant literature on the work-family resource model of hotel human resource management in theory, and also provide a useful reference for the hotel to improve the service quality of staff in practice.

Impact of Sedimentation and Bathymetry of Selected Small Reservoirs on the Priority Water-Linked Sectors in the Zambezi River Basin

This study was conducted within the Zambezi River Basin to ascertain the bathymetry and sedimentation of selected reservoirs, evaluate their seasonal hydrological regimes, pinpoint the causes of reservoir siltation, and determine how the bathymetry and siltation impacted water-related industries and policy choices. Hydrological field measurements using a hydrographic survey boat, document studies, and interviews were used to collect the data. The 3D spatial analyst tools in ArcGIS 10.3 and hypsometric curves were used to analyze bathymetric data. Thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative interview data. Findings indicated that sedimentation was a problematic phenomenon spatial-temporally and, it triggered a significant decrease in the storage capacities of the reservoirs. The study noted that catchments with small reservoirs were vulnerable to severe water stress, particularly from July through the beginning of the next rainy season in December. Over 90% of the local population and water-related industries were facing substantial risks of economic water shortages and may continue to face more water challenges amidst escalating climatic changes. The problem could be addressed by coping mechanisms such as alternative livelihoods, water harvesting, and water shedding. This study proposes an Integrated Water Resources Management Framework, which may help incorporate water education to bring about behavioural change against drivers of sedimentation. The proposed sediment and water resources management model serves as a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary tool that could be used to address siltation concerns. This work has also shown the significance of bathymetric surveys of small reservoirs as a basis for policy context and regulations on managing water resources.

Multicriteria land cover design via coupled hydrologic and multi-sector water management models

We investigate how hydrologic-land feedbacks and a hydrologic-water management linkage impact land cover arrangements optimized within a multiobjective land cover design framework. The framework integrates a spatially-distributed and physically-based hydrologic model, for simulating surface and subsurface flow and land processes, with a network-based multi-sector water resources management and allocation model. Both models used (Parflow, Pywr) are open-source. The framework is applied to a hillslope problem to identify land cover patterns that optimize trade-offs between water, food, energy and environment objectives. Results show trade-offs depend on land cover composition and the spatial arrangement of land covers within the catchment. Total runoff volume and peak flow of runoff was found to change 3 and 2-fold, respectively, between optimized solutions as land cover composition and spatial patterns were altered to satisfy different combinations of objectives. At the same time, up to a 15% reduction in the total runoff volume and an 8% reduction in the peak flow of runoff were observed within optimized land cover patterns having equal composition but different spatial arrangements. This emphasizes the impact on hydrologic behavior of the spatial location of land covers within a catchment. The emergence of patterns in land cover distribution for different trade-offs between objectives is driven by feedback mechanisms between subsurface hydrology and land processes, which are implicitly linked to the properties of each land cover and the interactions between neighboring land covers through lateral groundwater flow. The study demonstrates the added benefits of coupling distributed hydrologic models with water management simulation for multisector multicriteria land cover planning.
