Festivals across the world represent the joy, recreation, and
traditions of their different societies and cultures. There is a
plethora of reasons to commemorate and organize such events. Every
festival has its own distinct personality, charms, appeal, and
experiences that are closely linked to culture, customs, issues,
core values, and more. All of these factors combine to create a
one-of-a-kind selling offer for specific destinations. Festival
attractions can serve to popularize and strengthen the tourist
economy, as well as to promote employment, entrepreneurship, and
tourism destination branding for the location. Managing Festivals
for Destination Marketing and Branding addresses the most current
and promising parts of tourism-centric festivals, which are held in
numerous tourist areas throughout the world. It links tourism
festivals around the world as a catalyst for destination marketing
and identity. Covering topics such as destination brand equity,
social media networks, and motivations and expectations of
tourists, this premier reference work is a dynamic resource for
business executives and leaders, brand managers, event managers,
festival managers, government officials, students and educators of
higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
The outbreak of global health issues due to rapid urbanization,
industrialization, and changing climatic conditions are severely
impacting health and lifestyle. Yet, healthcare and medical
services continue to increase in cost in developed nations. This
can result in medical tourism, wherein patients travel across
countries in order to benefit from medical treatment that might not
be accessible in the traveler's nation of origin. Developing
countries are prepared to capitalize on this growing industry by
offering multi-specialty healthcare hospitals, cost-effective
treatments, and the promotion of online medical consultancy. Global
Developments in Healthcare and Medical Tourism provides innovative
insights into issues impacting healthcare services, healthcare
service providers, government policies, and initiatives for health
reforms and explores low-cost medical tourism destinations and
practices. The book additionally seeks to deliver high-quality,
cost-efficient smart healthcare applications. The content within
this publication examines global health, wellness tourism, and
global business and is designed for students, researchers,
academicians, policymakers, government officials, medical
practitioners, and industry professionals.
The companies that provide the Internet to the rest of the world do
not have the luxury of setting high expectations and assuming they
will be met. These Internet infrastructure companies (IICs) are
responsible for delivering the Internet's promise, including
everything from eBusiness and mobile Internet applications to
optical services and high-speed access. The Internet's audience
takes this promise for granted, and IICs face the daunting
challenge of making the Internet, and networks like it, do what the
audience expects them to. To meet the expectations they face, IICs
must harness the power of their operations support systems (OSSs) -
the software systems in the background they use to create, manage,
maintain, manipulate and adapt their networks to serve customers
reliably and rapidly.
Broadband Infrastructure: The Ultimate Guide to Understanding and
Delivering OSS/BSS is a "how to" book for Internet infrastructure
companies to help them prepare for the decisions they will face
when constructing their core OSS strategies and infrastructure.
This book provides a source of reference and education to learn the
language, methods, and technologies associated with the OSS market.
It examines the Internet infrastructure supply chain and how it
will be automated. Finally, it brings together a wealth of proven
knowledge and advice, gathered from BusinessEdge Solutions'
extensive OSS experience, that broadband providers can use to
minimize their OSS risks while maximizing their ability to
differentiate and compete.
The rapid growth and development of global transportation and
communication technology systems are some key 21st century drivers,
which provide faster, more accessible inter-continental
connectivity, continuity, convergence and collaboration to create
billions of opportunities for global citizens. Through this tourism
has become one of the world's most vital, vibrant, volatile and
value-oriented service industries. However, sometimes this mobility
may be a great cause of unprecedented pandemics. Recent extensive
viral outbreaks such as Zika, Ebola, Swine Flu and the global
spanning COVID-19 pandemic have had a momentary disruptive impact
of the mobility of tourists and devastated the tourism industry to
continue operating. Virus Outbreaks and Tourism Mobility:
Strategies to Counter Global Health Hazards uses innovative and
cutting-edge research to map out the background and impacts of
national, regional and international viral outbreaks. With case
studies exploring the strategic responses and management of these
crises, with perspectives offered on local economies, tourist
destinations or the transport and aviation services, this study
focuses on illuminating new viewpoints to help build effective
strategic responses to global health hazards.
Apoptosis is currently one of the fastest moving fields in biology
with spec- tacular progress made over the past few years in
delineating the molecular mechanisms which underlie this process.
It is nowindisputable thatapoptosis plays an essential role in
normal cell physiology and that aberrant apoptosis can manifest
itself in a variety of human disorders. Published in two parts
(Volumes 23 and 24 of the series entitled Results and Problems in
Cell Dif- ferentiation), this is an attempt to bring together many
different aspects of apoptosis. Given that this is such a vast and
rapidly expanding field, it is almost impossible to cover
everything that is now known about apoptosis in two short books,
but I hope these volumes prove to be a guidepost, provid- ing basic
essential information on the biology and molecular mechanisms of
apoptosis and its implications in some human diseases.
Asasignificantamount of newinformation on apoptosis isemerging
every week,it isunrealistic to expect that by the time these two
books are published, allthe articles willdeliver up-to-date
information. Nevertheless, Ibelieve that the fundamentals of the
apoptotic phenomenon are now firmly in place and are discussed at
length in various chapters. Readers may find a small degree of
overlap between some chapters. This was unavoidable since
closelyrelated areas of apoptosis research have been covered by
more than one author.
