“…First, smart is associated with the development of information and communication technologies (ICT) and smart technologies. In this regard, smart technologies are seen as efficient tools for managing destinations (Ivars-Baidal et al, 2017), attractions (Wang et al, 2016), events (Silva-Pedroza et al, 2017) or hospitality businesses (Alsetoohy and Ayoun, 2018;Buhalis and Leung, 2018). The entire process of collecting, analyzing, and distributing information and the use of big data, interconnected devices, and artificial intelligence tools lies in the heart of smart management practices (Ji et al, 2016;Sun et al, 2016).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to conduct a systematic and quantitative review of published papers on smart tourism. More specifically, the paper aims to identify the smart tourism research life cycle, collaboration trends, main social structure, disciplinary approaches and foundations, research topics and methodological approaches. Design/methodology/approach Systematic quantitative review techniques were used to review smart tourism literature. Frequency analysis, network analysis, text mining techniques were performed on data obtained from 96 papers collected from three databases as follows: Web of Science, Scopus and EBSCOhost. Findings The smart tourism research life cycle has two turning points with an exponential increase: 2015 and 2017. The latter is mainly associated with the internationalization of collaboration. Social structure of smart tourism research was revealed. Many of the ideas and research trends are affected by one research cluster. Destination related articles are dominant in smart tourism research. Internet of things and tourist experience are less researched areas. Only a quarter of the articles was published in tourism and hospitality journals. In particular, there is a big gap in published papers in hospitality journals. An important gap from methodological aspect is limited number of qualitative studies with human subjects. The geographical limitation is high concentration of smart tourism studies in Korea. Research limitations/implications This study collected and analyzed only full papers published in peer-reviewed journals. Future research may consider including book chapters and/or conference proceedings. This study was mainly based on quantitative review techniques. Qualitative or mixed review techniques may be conducted. Originality/value This study is the first literature review on an increasingly popular topic of smart tourism.

Climate change casts a shadow on the tourism industry in Egypt in general, and on coastal hotels in particular, as the coastal areas of Egypt have been classified as the most vulnerable to climate change in the Middle East. As such, mitigating the negative impacts and threats of climate change requires an assessment of the vulnerability of coastal hotels and the extent to which adaptation measures are applied. Accordingly, this study applied a hybrid methodology to achieve three main objectives. First, to evaluate Alexandria’s vulnerability to future climate change (at the destination level) by analyzing the recent climatic trends and expected scenarios. Second, to assess the vulnerability of Alexandria’s coastal hotels to climate change (sector level) using satellite images, aerial mapping, remote sensing, and geographic information systems (GIS). Third, to explore how coastal hotels are adapting to the risks of climate change using the four business-focused adaptation measures (i.e., technical, managerial, policies, and awareness-raising). The findings of the study revealed and confirmed that the hotel sector in Alexandria is threatened by sea level rise (SLR). Four hotels are at risk of inundation, and the extent of hotels at risk will increase with future scenarios of SLR. On the other hand, the results of examining the adaptation measures of 36 hotels indicated that the scope of the adaptation measures differed significantly between hotels due to factors such as hotel category, size, duration of operation, and EMS status, but overall, the scope of application was more comprehensive and varied than expected. Technical adaptation measures were the most common and applied by the majority of hotels in Alexandria. The results of this study should help figure out what adaptation measures coastal hotels should take and show policymakers where they should focus their adaptation efforts.

For instance, PLS provides very robust model estimations with data that have normal as well as extremely non-normal distributional properties which enforce less restrictive assumptions about data normality [84].…”

Increased competition, technologies, and downsizing, demographic diversity affect employment relationships and make the academic organization becoming more complex. As competition between firms becomes more fierce and fierce, the state of talent turnover directly affects the survival and development of the company. The human resource department is committed to effectively improving employees' enthusiasm and giving full play to employees' ability to tap into employees' potential, and then improve employee performance. One of the indicators of the company's success is the performance of the employees who work efficiently and effectively that would produce a good performance. Depending on the social exchange theory. This study examines the positive role of psychological contract fulfillment in the linking mechanism between organizational support and employee performance. The fact that organizational support plays an important role in enhancing employee performance has been studied in the literature. However, studying the mediating role of psychological contract fulfillment in the relationship between organizational support and employee performance is still needed. It is argued that psychological contract fulfillment is a vital mediator in the relationship between organizational support and employee performance. Therefore, the major aim of the current study is to provide empirical support for the relationship between organizational support and job performance and psychological contract fulfillment as a mediator.
