Sub-40-fs pulses with 18-W average power from a passively mode-locked thin disk Yb:YAG laser with nonlinear fiber compression
No full textBy combining a passively mode-locked high-power laser with a large mode area holey fiber for nonlinear compression, we generated 33-fs pulses with 18-W average power. The output beam is linearly polarized and close to diffraction-limited. ©2002 Optical Society of America.F. Brunner, T. Siidmeyer, E. Innerhofer, R Paschotta, U. Keller, K. Furusawa, J. C.

Der Zusammenhang von Kundenzufriedenheit und Sprache im Tourismus. Kann die Sprache die Wahrnehmung der Kundenzufriedenheit beeinflussen
No full textKundenzufriedenheit ist das Ergebnis eines vom Kunden vorgenommenen und somit
subjektiven Vergleichs der aktuellen Erfahrungen bei der Produktnutzung mit
den eigenen vorangehenden Erwartungen. Subjektive Erwartungen und Wahrnehmungen
sind von kulturellen Mustern und Hintergründen geprägt. Während es eine
Reihe von Forschungsstudien gibt, die den Einfluss von Kultur und Nationalität auf
Verhaltensweisen und Konsumverhalten analysieren, gibt es kaum Untersuchungen,
welche die Sprache als Indikator für Kultur und Bestimmungsfaktor für Konsum-
und Reiseverhalten in den Mittelpunkt stellen. Dem vorliegenden Beitrag liegt
daher die These zugrunde, dass Sprache die Wahrnehmung touristischer Angebote
und somit die Zufriedenheit beeinflussen kann. Anhand einer Beispieldestination
in Südtirol soll untersucht werden, ob aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen
und Bewertungen, die verschiedene Sprachgruppen vornehmen, die
sprachliche Identität über die Kultur die Wahrnehmung der Kundenzufriedenheit
beeinflusst. Die Untersuchung hat gezeigt, dass es trotz der unterschiedlichen Bewertungen
der Sprachgruppen hinsichtlich der Stärken und Schwächen eines Angebotes
keine relevanten Unterschiede in der Zufriedenheit der Gäste gibt

No full textHow to Create Destination Capabilities in the Field of New Product Development
No full textThis study aims to identify the key elements underlying a destination capability (DC), and to examine how these components interact to foster destination development. The paper uses Haugland et al.’s model (2011), which is structured around three major concepts: i) destination capabilities, ii) coordination at the destination level, iii) inter-destination bridge ties.
To answer the research questions we carried out a preliminary study based on an inductive single-case study, represented by Skipassfree (Livigno, Italy).
Skipassfree case study is analyzed along three stages: its “genesis”, its development, and last but not least its implementation through the use of a contractual form
Architectural governance and the coordination of building culture: An exploratory reflection
No full textThe entirety of a region’s architectural expressions, that is, its building culture, has a strong impact on a region’s atmosphere. Being a collective and networked endeavour, building culture is difficult to coordinate. Against this background, this chapter presents an empirically informed reflection on architectural governance. The chapter is based on a multiple case study which compares five regions in the European Alps in terms of their coordination mechanisms in the areas of architecture and spatial planning, that is, architectural governance. The analysed regions include Grisons (Switzerland), Vorarlberg, Tyrol (both Austria), South Tyrol and Trentino (both in Italy). By combining conceptual considerations with empirical evidence, the chapter concludes with hypothesised relationships between architectural governance, building culture, socio-economic development dynamics and tourism
Destination resilience: Challenges and opportunities for destination management and governance
No full text© 2018 selection and editorial matter, Elisa Innerhofer, Martin Fontanari and Harald Pechlaner; individual chapters, the contributors. The challenge of destination management is to track and understand trends on different levels, to consider socio-economic developments and to respond proactively by addressing the paradigms of sustainability and resilience. By examining tourism and travel trends in a wide range of regions, this book offers new insight into the impacts of economic, social and environmental changes on destination management, governance and development. Topics for discussion include advances and changes in technology, the global economy and governance as well as risk management and destinations’ response to disruptions. Within a rapidly changing world, emphasis is given on resilient thinking and strategic management techniques in order to unlock the inner potential of destinations to respond and adapt positively to economic, environmental and social changes. This is valuable reading for tourism students and researchers, destination managers and policy makers
