Starting from the late 1960s, the cruise industry has appeared in two key regions, namely Europe and North America. However, the cruise industry has undergone fundamental changes which implies that the number of frequent cruisers is growing, with western travelers supposedly travelling to diverse cultures, attractive cruising destinations and exotic experiences in Southeast Asia for western travelers, and thus cruising in the Asian region has been happening at an enormous growing rate. Among the Asian regions, China is experiencing the fastest growth rates. Both Hong Kong and Shanghai established two cruise terminals which can be described as homeport cities in the 21st centuries. However, Hong Kong and Shanghai cruise terminals need to deal with neighboring competitors like Singapore, Japan, Vietnam, just to name but a few, in a challenging and dynamic environment. In order to examine Hong Kong and Shanghai’s potential evolution into an international cruise terminal hub, we suggest Connectivity, Regional Competitiveness, Utilization, Infrastructure, Security, Environmental Management (CRUISE) framework to seize attainable prospect of the external environment and investigate locational characteristics of cruise terminals in Hong Kong and Shanghai respectively. The first mover and sustainable competitive advantage will be performed. Academic and managerial implications of the research findings for cruise terminals are elaborated.

Based on the support of governmental policies and the rapid growth of China’s economic development, residents’ living standards, and tourism consumption demand, cruise tourism has continuously developed and its service level has gradually improved, which have become the main driving forces for the sustainable growth of China’s cruise tourism industry. This paper took Shenzhen Shekou Port (SSP) as a research site and used an online text analysis method by Rost Content Mining 6 software to analyze 2552 Ctrip travel network, and then did further study through face to face interviews from the perspective of “tourists source” and “procurement” in the value chain theory. Only by understanding the developing trend of cruise tourists can we cultivate cruise culture, expand cruise tourism market, and finally realize the benign development of cruise tourism. The research results show that the cruise business in Shenzhen should strengthen the senior citizens market and marketing to kids and parents, and improve the satisfaction of cruise passengers in terms of enriching entertainment facilities, elevating service quality, and upgrading duty-free shopping centers. This paper not only focused on the study of cruise tourists in Southern China, but also enriches the research of the cruise value chain.

“…Google Maps se ha convertido en uno de los productos más importantes de Google Enterprise. Estos beneficios se justifican no solo por las características y el rendimiento de este producto, sino también por su capacidad para integrar diferentes lenguajes de programación a través de Google Maps API con el objetivo de mejorar la personalización y la explotación de diferentes sistemas de información (Vijaya Rohini & Isakki, 2016) (García-Albertos, Picornell, Salas-Olmedo, & Gutiérrez, 2018) (Ibrahim & Shafiq, 2019) (Nurwarsito & Savitri, 2019) (Perea-Medina, Rosa-Jiménez, & Andrade, 2019).…”

La participación de la sociedad a través del uso de herramientas colaborativas ha permitido implementar modelos eficientes de recuperación y de gestión de información pública. Instituciones públicas y privadas han recibido retroalimentación importante de su gestión con este tipo de información. Sin embargo, no se ha encontrado ningún estudio sobre la cuantificación de la aceptación de las herramientas de software que gestionen información de delitos georreferenciados desde un enfoque colaborativo por parte del ciudadano. El objetivo de este trabajo es validar la aceptación tecnológica de aplicaciones que georreferencien delitos. Se ha implementado un prototipo web para georreferenciar los datos proporcionados por las víctimas de actos delictivos. El prototipo de la aplicación fue validado por un grupo de 122 estudiantes universitarios que fueron víctimas directa o indirectamente de algún delito, a través del Modelo de Aceptación de Tecnología. Los resultados se interpretaron con la ayuda del análisis de correlación de Kendall Tau-b donde se obtuvieron valores de correlación positiva altamente significativos.
