Strategic Marketing Communication in Pilgrimage Tourism

The paper discusses the pilgrimage tourism as one of the oldest forms of tourism. Although it is often considered as marginal, the pilgrimage tourism is indeed one of the most widespread forms of tourism. Due to the historical context all the necessary prerequisites for the use of its potential are developed in Slovakia. There is a large amount of destinations and sites that are by their nature or historical value of interest for domestic and foreign visitors. Visitors from all over the world participating in significant pilgrimages bounded to these destinations. However deficiencies in marketing communication, infrastructure and other areas hinder the development of pilgrimage and religious tourism in Slovakia. To determine the current state of marketing communications in pilgrimage tourism questionnaire survey was conducted. In achieving the purpose of the research, two hypotheses were formulated. Because, the relationship between a dependent variable was examined, and the interval variable is one, Single Factor Analysis of Variance ANOVA was used. Homogeneity of variance was verified using Bartlett´s and Levene´s test. Recommendations for the development of communications strategy are formulated based on the results of the analysis.

Control authority, business strategy, and the characteristics of management accounting information systems

Phenomenon of value to the information in Indonesia is that information is not used for making decision but for official concern. Using 195 response respondents from 430 managers of the manufacturing companies mostly from Jakarta, Indonesia, we analyse and test whether the formal, and informal structures control authority and business strategy influence the characteristics of management accounting information system (MAIS). We found that the formal, informal authority and business strategy significantly and positively influence the characteristics of MAIS. The informal and business strategy have big effect on the MAIS for decision making, while the formal one has very much less effect. The business strategy has a very dominant influence on developing the MAIS. The Formal authority is opposite and not in line with the informal one. Business strategy is more adaptive to the informal authority than the formal one. This provided that managers’ business strategy moderately be based not by the formal information provided, but the informal one.
An improved PSO-based charging strategy of electric vehicles[taliem.ir]

An improved PSO-based charging strategy of electric vehicles in electrical distribution grid

Driven by the desire to reduce environmental impacts and achieve energy independence, electric vehicles (EVs) are poised to receive mass acceptance from the general public. However, simultaneously connecting to electric distribution grid and charging with large number of EVs bring the necessity of optimizing the charging and discharging behaviors of EVs, due to the security and economy issue of the grid operation. To address this issue, we propose a novel EV charging model in this paper. The model concerns with following aspects, including optimal power flow (OPF), statistic characteristics of EVs, EV owners’ degree of satisfaction (DoS), and the power grid cost. An improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithmis proposed for the model optimization. To evaluate our proposed optimal EV charging strategy, a 10-bus power distribution system simulation is performed for performance investigation. Simulation resultsshow that the proposed strategy can reduce the operational cost of the power grid considerately, while meeting the EV owner’s driving requirement. Also, better performance on the global search capability and optimal result of the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is verified.
