Purpose Virtual reality (VR) and augmented (AR) are two technological breakthroughs that stimulate perception. Both have been applied in tourism contexts to improve tourists’ experience. This paper aims frame both AR VR developments during the past 15 years from a scientific perspective. Design/methodology/approach study adopts text mining topic modelling approach analyse total of 1,049 articles for 406 AR. The papers were selected Scopus, with title, abstract keywords being extracted...
Purpose This paper aims to propose a data mining approach evaluate conceptual model in tourism, encompassing large set characterized by dimensions grounded on existing literature. Design/methodology/approach The is tested using guest satisfaction nine dimensions. A of 84 k online reviews and 31 features was collected from TripAdvisor. review score granted considered proxy defined as the target feature model. sequence understanding preparation tasks led tuned 60k 29 input which were used for...
This research aims to understand how the interactions across several social networks influence visibility of a luxury brand's most relevant network which acts as showcase (Instagram). A data mining approach is proposed for modeling number likes on Instagram using 365 posts published in different between 2015 and 2016. Fifteen features related with networks, product characteristics external media were prepared used feed support vector machine model achieved an adequate performance (mean...
Diabetes mellitus (DM) é uma doença crônica caracterizada por um estado hiperglicêmico. As formas mais prevalentes do DM são tipos 1 e 2. Essa constitui desafio significativo para a saúde global, com crescentes taxas de incidência morbimortalidade. A hiperglicemia compromete os vasos sanguíneos, levando danos celulares, alterações fisiológicas metabólicas, problemas funcionais, estruturais e/ou falência diversos órgãos. Ademais, o também está associado comprometimento sistema imunológico,...
Detection and refactoring of smelly code are crucial activities, along with software maintenance evolution. Code smells indicators poor design implementation choices, which expected to affect the developers’ program comprehension. The use eyetracking technology provides an interesting means analyzing impact on However, there is limited existing effort in this direction. This paper reports a study we have used eye tracker investigate how presence influences We observed that smell data class...
This paper describes the design and implementation of a suit static analyses code generation techniques to annotate programs with OpenMP pragmas for task parallelism. These approximate ranges covered by memory regions, bound recursive tasks estimate profitability tasks. We have used these ideas implement source-to-source compiler that inserts into C/C++ without any human intervention. By building onto program analysis literature, relying on OpenMP's runtime ability disambiguate pointers, we...
The design and implementation of static analyses that disambiguate pointers has been a focus research since the early days compiler construction. One challenges arise in this context is analysis languages support pointer arithmetics, such as C, C++ assembly dialects. This paper contributes to solve challenge. We start from an obvious, yet unexplored, observation: if strictly less than another, they cannot alias. Motivated by remark, we use abstract interpretation build strict less-than...
The results of measurements lightning quantities at MCS are updated. Simultaneous records current, electric field, optical sensor data and high-speed video some events considered in the analysis presented this work. main parameters currents summarized. Two sets interesting rare consisting first return stroke M-events upward measured tropical regions addressed their features discussed.
Bibliographic data sets have revealed good levels of technical interoperability observing the principles and practices linked data. However, they a low level quality from semantic point view, due to many factors: lack common conceptual framework for diversity standards often used together, reduced number links between ontologies underlying sets, proliferation heterogeneous vocabularies, underuse mechanisms in structures, "ontology hijacking" (Feeney et al., 2018), point-to-point mappings, as...
UML templates allow the specification of generic model elements that can be reproduced in domain models by means Bind relationship.Binding to a template encompasses substitution template's parameters compatible elements.The requirement compatibility, however, is checked over very permissive way.As consequence, binding result badly-formed and non-computable expressions.Such option design was certainly intentional meant for richer semantics relationship, as specialization concept advised at...
This article describes how the rise in technological innovation has allowed for transnational criminal organizations (TCOs) to expand their operations using virtual platforms such as social media and online video games. These are utilized by TCOs conduct some of traditional forms crimes, a money laundering. practices have found solace innovation, mainly through exploitation rising technologies, games, game consoles peripherals, Virtual Reality headsets, inconspicuous electronic devices...
Smart tourism can benefit from Big Data to offer personalized services that better meet tourist demands. This study addresses the adaptation versus globalization debate by analyzing all reviews made about New York City (NYC) on Booking.com, a total of 115,297 for 307 hotels. The collected dataset was divided into 10 cultural clusters and category each hotel star rank system. Then, 5 categories were analyzed: cleanliness, food, location, price, staff.Results showed both divergent convergent...

TiniScript is an intermediate programming language designed for educational robotics, aligned with STEM principles to foster integrative learning experiences. With its minimalist single-line syntax, such as F(2, 80) , simplifies robotic programming, allowing users bypass complex code uploading processes and enabling realtime direct instruction transmission. Thanks preloaded interpreter, decouples from hardware, significantly reducing wait times. Instructions can be sent wirelessly any...
The rise in popularity of combat sports has afforded fighters an enhanced celebrity status, especially across online platforms that provide fans the opportunity to engage with and discuss their favorite athletes. Given this growth, fighters’ behaviors, both inside outside arena, can have a strong influence on fans’ consumption social media activity. To evaluate relationship, study investigated effect trash talking subsequent behaviors by collecting analyzing 516 fighter responses during...
