Putting Artificial Intelligence And Expert Systems To Work for The Hospitality Industry

Artificial intelligence (AI) has existed formally as a field of science and technology for over thirty years. 109634808801200264Nevertheless, it has no precise definition due to it's diversity. Over the years Al has developed into three principal branches: expert systems, natural language communication, and robotics. Expert systems (ES) among the three branches is currently attracting much attention and is of most interest to many professionals as well as organizations. However, the development of expert systems—the computer programs that emulate the thinking processes of human brain in solving problems—is very complex and extremely costly. Although the current applications of ES are mainly is space exploration, it should be noted that some of the greatest opportunities for expert systems in the hospitality industry lie in small, routine, everyday tasks like departmental budget analysis, shift scheduling, credit verification, and room assignment.

A micro computer based data base management system for a national engineering conference

A Data Base Management System for a National Engineering Conference has been developed in dBase III on an IBM XT. The system was used to record the papers and participants as they are submitted, to generate the management information data on which the scheduling and room assignments of presentations are based, and finally to print automatically the conference bulletin. The system was designed so that it could handle in excess of 2000 participants, 2000 papers and 50 simultaneous sessions. Hardware and software requirements are defined and the selection process is reported. Techniques to design the system so that it required minimal training and is virtually user proof are illustrated. The system has been successfully used to manage the Joint ORSA/TIMS National Meeting in Atlanta, 1985 and some practical experience and possible enhancements are given.

室・通路・出入口の最適配置モデルの研究

This paper presents a method of assignment of rooms to locations and a method of addition of communication path and doorways. A grid is placed over a given site and each rooms, dividing them into cells of a size decide by architect. The first room to be positioned is located at the center of the site. The second is located contiguous to the first with the virtual path area between. A communication path between two rooms, both of which have the largest number of contacts, is assigned first in the virtual communication path area. As the communication path between two rooms is generated, a doorways of each room is located such that the path is the shortest. Unnecessary virtual path area between two rooms is eliminated by the convergent shift of rooms' positions.

Three Into Two Doesn't Go: A Follow-up on the Effects of Overcrowded Dormitory Rooms

A follow-up study of students who, during their freshman year, were either placed two to a room or three to a room in a room designed for two persons was conducted two years later. In comparison to their performance during their sophomore and junior years, grade point averages of tripled students, but not of doubled students, were significantly depressed during their freshman year. Additionally, tripled students were less satisfied and more unhappy with their living conditions as freshmen than were doubled students. During their later college careers, all students, regardless of their freshman room assignment, were equally well adjusted to college, equally satisfied with college and performed equally well in their courses.

Radiation safety precautions with 131iodine therapy

An integral part of the treatment of most thyroid cancer patients is the administration of 131iodine. These patients should be hospitalized when given 131I. This paper reviews the basics of nuclear and radiation physics as applied to 131I therapy. Discussed in detail are the various facets of radiation safety which nurses need to be aware of when caring for a thyroid cancer patient treated with 131l. Among these facets are patient room assignment, regulation of visitors, patient feeding, handling of wastes, and procedures to follow in case of emergency surgery or death.

WORKING SAFELY AROUND IMPLANTED RADIATION SOURCES

The article is concerned with patients in whom applicators containing cesium have been vaginally or cervically implanted. In working with such patients, radiation exposure to the attendant can be minimized in several ways: working as far as possible from the radiation source; using a lead shield between patient and attendant; reducing time spent near the patient as much as possible. Film badges and pocket dosimeters indicate levels of radiation to which workers are exposed; more than 400 mrem/month requires investigation by a Radiation Safety Officer. Pregnant attendants should not be assigned to care for patients with sealed radiation sources. Special precautions involving visitors and room assignments are discussed. Various aspects of caring for the patients are detailed. Six informative tables have information about the following: general guide to total time a person may spend with a patient containing a cesium radiation source; equipment for insertion of two types of sources and for removal; general precautions; notes for inserting Fletcher after-loaders, cesium molds and removing cesium.

Manipulation of the Environmental Press in a College Residence Hall

This study was designed to determine the effects of having college residence hall floors numerically dominated by students with similar academic majors and the effects of a program of intellectual discussions held on the residence hall floors. Freshman room assignments were arranged so that the ratio of science students to humanities students was 4 to 1 on two floors of a residence hall and the ratio of humanities students to science students was 4 to 1 on two other floors. On two floors a series of intellectual discussions was held. The dominance of a vocational group had a significant impact on feelings about college major, satisfaction with college, and social interaction. The discussion program had a significant effect upon intellectual attitudes and activities.
