The purpose of this research is to assess the traveller’s wayfinding behaviour of airport terminal access design. Airport wayfinding is defined as a process in which a traveller makes a decision to navigate using information support systems in order to arrive to destination successfully. Quantitative data is acquired to give meaningful results justifying the research outcomes and allow non-biased interpretation of the research results. It represents the process within the development of the methodology and the concept of airport terminal access design and human wayfinding behaviour.

Order picking in conventional warehouse environments involves determining a sequence in which to visit the unique locations where each part in the order is stored, and thus is often modeled as a traveling salesman problem. With computer tracking of inventories, parts may now be stored in multiple locations, simplifying replenishment of inventory and eliminating the need to reserve space for each item. In this environment, order picking requires choosing a subset of the locations that store an item to collect the required quantity.

In this paper, we introduce an inventory routing problem with network disruptions. In this problem, not only decisions on inventory levels and vehicle routing are made simultaneously, but also, we consider disruptions over the networks in which a number of arcs are vulnerable to these disruptions, leading to an increase in travel times.

Recommendation systems and adaptive systems have been introduced in travel applications to support the travelers in their decision-making processes. These systems should respond to the unexpected changes during the travel. As a result, the first step is to sense the traveler’s specifications, needs, and preferences before, during, and after the travel.

Consider a multi-period multi-fare class airline booking problem related to a two-leg airline network. Travel requests include outbound, inbound trip, and round trips. The round-trip refers to a journey comprising both outbound and inbound trips. To develop a dynamic-nested booking decision-making system for the airline network, this study designs a dynamic model that enables the airline reservations system to devise a set of dynamic decision rules for any given booking status.

The analysis shows that public transportation investment can have significant impacts on the economy, and thus represent an important public policy consideration. However, economic impacts should not be equated with the value of total societal benefits associated with public transportation investment. Care should also be taken to recognize the short-term effect of public transportation spending as well as the longer-term benefits of sustained transportation investment on travel times, costs and economic productivity.

For about the first ten years of its existence, cinema in the United States and elsewhere was mainly a trick and a gadget. Before 1896 the coin-operated Kinematograph of Edison was present at many fairs and in many entertainment venues. Spectators had to throw a coin in the machine and peek through glasses to see the film. The first projections, from 1896 onwards, attracted large audiences. Lumière had a group of operators who travelled around the world with the cinematograph, and showed the pictures in theatres. After a few years, around 1900, films became a part of the program in...

The discussion of the properties of relative international prices has been closely tied with a discussion on the nature of the pricing decisions by ¯rms. 5 The observed slow pass-through of exchange rate changes to consumer prices and deviations from the law of one price for traded goods are consistent with prices of imported goods that are sticky in the currency of the consumer (local currency pricing). This pricing mechanism, however, dampens the expenditure-switching e®ect of nominal exchange rate movements.

The individual segments of business tourism (conferences and meetings, exhibitions and trade fairs, incentive travel, corporate events, outdoor events) are the five segments which are the prime focus of marketing activities by venues and destinations, because decisions about where the events take place are open to influence. The organisers of the event may have greater flexibility in deciding where it is held, and are able to use their own judgement or discretion. For this reason, these five segments are often described as ‘discretionary’.

In many countries, both those with and without land available for expan- sion, there is large scope to increase productivity on currently cultivated land, something that could have major impacts on poverty. Broadly, countries with relatively little or no available additional suitable land for cultivation (for exam- ple, Burundi, the Arab Republic of Egypt, India, Malawi, and Rwanda) are on the left half of the graph, and those with relatively more land (for example, Argentina, Brazil, Russia, Sudan, Uruguay, and Zambia) are on the right.
