“…Such benefits may include the enhancement of the stock of human capital, management expertise, and the health condition of citizens. Absalyamov [14] examined the influence of cultural and sports mega-events on the improvement of the quality of life in the region. Ren [15] showed that international large-scale comprehensive sports events can significantly promote the development of sports venues and facilities and the construction of professional sports teams, so as to promote the development of sports undertakings in host cities.…”

Mega-events, as a strategic approach taken by entrepreneurial governments, have the ability to transform the image of a city. This study explores mega-events and their relationship to urban development by developing a coupling coordination degree model and using the official statistics of Qionghai, China, from 2010 to 2015. The results of this study show that the dynamic of coordination between mega-events and urban development is a classical S-shaped growth curve. In the coupling system, this study also reveals that relevance index and the economy, as sub-indicators, make significant contributions to mega-events and urban development, respectively. Finally, the researchers concluded that the international large-scale events can significantly promote the urban development in host cities. This study reveals theoretical issues and practical implications for policy makers and event managers to achieve integrated and coordinated development between mega-events and urban development.

The transport infrastructure of many cities has not been able to keep up with the pace of growth in the motorization rate or to counteract the intensification of urban traffic. Rising in traffic congestion in cities not only impacts the productivity costing billions but also responsible for more than 40% of all CO2 emissions which results in global warming. While expansion and construction of new roads may be considered in some cases, in most, better management of existing infrastructure to lower traffic congestion is the only option.The current state of the art commercial solutions can predict the recurring traffic situations, as this behavior can be easily learned from historical data. The challenge is to predict the non-recurrent congestion caused by events such as accidents, adverse weather, construction zones and Planned Special Event (PSE). Past research has shown, PSEs such as concerts or sports games, festivals and conventions has a huge impact on everyday urban transportation. Therefore, the aim of the proposed research is to investigate the impact PSEs on urban traffic congestion.The proposed research is applying spatial-temporal big data mining methods to predict the impact of PSEs on the urban concession. Specifically, the proposed research will consider the characteristics of PSEs such as location, type, duration, audience and time and day of the event in the proposed analysis approach which enables to predict of urban congestion for future PSEs.

“…It also refines the measurement scales of the constructs proposed by Getz and Andersson (2010) into a set of items that is more relevant to small-scale sport activities. Most studies have investigated the relationship between motivations and involvement in large scale events such as mega events or major events (Absalyamov, 2015;Emery, 2010;Fourie & Santana-Gallego, 2011;C. Lee & Taylor, 2005).…”
