“…Achieving such results is intended using ICT, and more specifically, augmented reality, which is defined as the technology that combines the real and the virtual and allows interaction in real time [16]. This educational technology can stimulate students and thereby promote improvement in academic performance [17][18][19][20]. Moreover, electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, or laptops can be introduced, generate interaction between users, and thus produce empathic experiences [21].…”

New technologies currently play a fundamental role in the educational context. As a result, augmented reality (AR) has recently gained a presence in educational centres. However, this educational technology has not been explored in depth at the secondary education level. Therefore, this research aims to analyse the impact of augmented reality on the academic performance of secondary education students, considering gender and the students’ attitudes toward this technology. In this mixed-method research based on convenient sampling, 321 students aged 14 to 17 years from the same secondary education school were assigned to an experimental group (n = 159) and a control group (n = 162). The control group used a traditional methodology in a slide-based learning environment, while the experimental group worked with an AR mobile application (ComputAR) designed with the same concepts. The data collection instruments used comprised a pre-test/post-test in both groups and semi-structured interviews in the experimental group. The results showed that the students who used augmented reality achieved better grades, highlighting the potential benefits of integrating this technology into the teaching process. No significant differences were observed regarding the gender of the students. In conclusion, this study provides findings that encourage the use of augmented reality in secondary schools.

“…VIKOR provides a compromise solution [ 48 ] and, in the literature, the VIKOR algorithm is highly preferred not only in operations research and decision-making problems [ 49 , 50 ] but also in big data, information technology, and knowledge management fields. There are many different VIKOR applications and solutions regarding big data, such as selection criteria of the big data analysts [ 51 ], big data management in healthcare [ 52 ], big data solutions for dairy supply chains [ 53 ], augmented reality [ 53 ], mining big data [ 54 ], and so on.…”

Big data pipelines are developed to process data characterized by one or more of the three big data features, commonly known as the three Vs (volume, velocity, and variety), through a series of steps (e.g., extract, transform, and move), making the ground work for the use of advanced analytics and ML/AI techniques. Computing continuum (i.e., cloud/fog/edge) allows access to virtually infinite amount of resources, where data pipelines could be executed at scale; however, the implementation of data pipelines on the continuum is a complex task that needs to take computing resources, data transmission channels, triggers, data transfer methods, integration of message queues, etc., into account. The task becomes even more challenging when data storage is considered as part of the data pipelines. Local storage is expensive, hard to maintain, and comes with several challenges (e.g., data availability, data security, and backup). The use of cloud storage, i.e., storage-as-a-service (StaaS), instead of local storage has the potential of providing more flexibility in terms of scalability, fault tolerance, and availability. In this article, we propose a generic approach to integrate StaaS with data pipelines, i.e., computation on an on-premise server or on a specific cloud, but integration with StaaS, and develop a ranking method for available storage options based on five key parameters: cost, proximity, network performance, server-side encryption, and user weights/preferences. The evaluation carried out demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach in terms of data transfer performance, utility of the individual parameters, and feasibility of dynamic selection of a storage option based on four primary user scenarios.

This article delves deeply into the burgeoning field of Tourism Data Spaces (TDS) in Europe, focusing on how technologies like Big Data and IoT are redefining the tourism sector. This technological shift is steering traditional tourist destinations towards smarter, more sustainable models. The study utilizes a multifaceted approach, combining documentary and bibliographical analysis with empirical data from the EU’s DATES project. By employing the Drivers, Pressures, State, Impacts, Responses (DPSIR) model, it provides a nuanced understanding of the dynamics in TDS. The findings underscore TDS’s pivotal role in improving decision-making and personalizing tourism services. The study also acknowledges the growing need for detailed tourism information to enhance travel planning and experience personalization. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of efficient and secure data management in tourism. This comprehensive analysis points to a future where data-driven insights foster more sustainable, tailored travel experiences. Additionally, the research illuminates both the challenges and prospects inherent in implementing TDS, stressing the importance of clear governance, technical standards, and balancing diverse stakeholder interests in the tourism industry. By addressing these challenges, the article posits that TDS can make a significant contribution to the innovation and sustainability of the tourism sector.
