How does circular economy work in industry? Strategies, opportunities, and tren...

The concept of circular economy (CE) has been a topic of interest for researchers, managers, and policy makers. It is recognised as the latest attempt to balance industrial development, environmental health, and economic growth. Although academic literature in this field has been gradually developing, it is limited in its analysis in terms of economic and competitive opportunity in the face of different strateg...

Intelligent human resources for the adoption of artificial intelligence: a syst...

This study is dedicated to critically analysing research addressing human resource management (HRM) and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) with the purpose of driving development in the field of human resources (HR) at the strategic and managerial level. Design/methodology/approach – A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted using the Scopus database, which gathered 61 articles between 2002 a...

A review of entrepreneurship and circular economy research: state of the art an...

The circular economy (CE) emerged as an alternative model to the linear system to foster sustainable development. Entrepreneurship represents a key factor in capturing new circular business opportunities. Research on circular entrepreneurship remains at an early phase and is correspondingly somewhat dispersed. Thus, the research objective here is to bring entrepreneurship into the focus of discussions on CE thr...

Training neural networks by resilient backpropagation algorithm for tourism for...

The main objective of this study is to presents a set of models for tourism destinations competitiveness, using the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) methodology. The time series of two regions (North and Centre of Portugal) has used to predict the tourism demand. The prediction for two years ahead gives a mean absolute percentage error between 5 and 9 %. Therefore, the ANN model is adequate for modelling and pr...

Entrepreneurial attitudes and perceptions in a cross-country setting: evidence ...

In the late 20th century, entrepreneurship re-emerged as a key outline item of economic policy makers across Europe, both for some na-tions as well as for European Union as a whole. Reasonable economic growth joined with constantly high levels of unemployment encouraged expectations of entrepreneurship’s potential as a source of job creation and economic growth. In spite of this growing interest, an inclusive t...

Forecasting tourism demand with artificial neural networks

Tourism has been viewed as an important player for the economic redevelopment of certain rural regions because of the attraction of landscapes, mountain, and the interest in second-home or investment opportunities at lower prices (Jackson & Murphy, 2002). Even with tourism‟s potential for development at all levels, there have been very few studies regarding models for estimating the local impact of tourism (Jac...

O Impacto da variável páscoa na previsão da procura turística

O impacto da variável Páscoa na previsão da procura turística

Com este estudo pretende-se analisar o impacto do feriado móvel da Páscoa na previsão da procura turística, para as regiões Norte e Centro de Portugal. De salientar que a série temporal “Dormidas Mensais registadas nos estabelecimentos hoteleiros”, considerada como significativa da actividade turística, devido às suas características, denota que os fenómenos influenciam de forma distinta a procura turística, na...

Modelling tourism demand: a comparative study between artificial neural network...

This study seeks to investigate and highlight the usefulness of the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) methodology as an alternative to the Box-Jenkins methodology in analysing tourism demand. To this end, each of the above-mentioned methodologies is centred on the treatment, analysis and modelling of the tourism time series: “Nights Spent in Hotel Accommodation per Month”, recorded in the period from January 198...
