Impact of restaurant online food delivery services to client satisfaction
No full textIn recent years, the restaurant business has changed a lot because of how fast online food delivery services have grown. The goal of this study was to find out how online food delivery services affect how much money restaurants make and how happy their customers are.
This study uses quantitative research to examine the relationship between online food delivery services, consumer satisfaction, and restaurant revenue. In particular, the author wants to know if these three characteristics are related to each other and the influence of each trait. Customers and restaurant owners or managers are surveyed using a cross-sectional survey method. These data will help assess the impact of online food delivery services on restaurant revenue and customer satisfaction. Actual customer feedbacks collected through the participant observation method will also be combined to provide an objective view.
Recent studies, industry articles and data related to online meal delivery platforms will be used to supplement secondary data and provide context. Combining secondary and primary information will help provide a thorough understanding of the topic and support the research's claim that it is reliable.
Hanko Sushi Restaurant (Sello branch) served as the thesis's commissioner. Hanko Sushi is widely known as Finland's biggest sushi family, as well as the largest and most recognized sushi restaurant chain in Finland, with 24 locations. The restaurant is situated inside the Mall of Sello, one of Finland's biggest and most popular shopping malls. The restaurant has recently been renovated and renamed Hanko Aasia Sello; numerous new dishes have also been introduced to the menu to fulfill the demands of consumers.
The results showed that restaurants' sales went up when they started using online food delivery services. This was mostly because customers could get to the restaurants more easily. Customers were also happier with these services because they were easy to use and offered a variety of options. Also, the use of third-party delivery sites raised questions about the quality of the food and how long it would take to get it, which could affect customer trust and happiness. This study suggests that businesses should weigh the positives and cons of working with online meal delivery services. Restaurant operators can benefit from this new trend while minimizing risks by finding the perfect combination. This will keep consumers happy and secure the restaurant's future. The research also stresses the importance of legislators and industry players working together to make the online meal delivery sector a fair and growing market. Online food delivery services will likely change customer behavior, restaurant business models, and the food and beverage industry overall, so further research is needed

No full textMiddel en Klein bedrijven die het in de huidige cultuur druk genoeg hebben met het runnen van hun zaak en behoefte hebben aan het verkopen van hun producten via het internet, hebben vaak geen tijd om nieuwe technieken te leren. Het is daarom van groot belang dat het beheer van een webshop gebruiksvriendelijk en overzichtelijk is. In dit project was het de bedoeling dat er onderzoek gedaan werd naar een nieuw intuïtief systeem, dat voldoet aan de belangen van de webshop beheerder. Voor de ontwikkeling van het nieuwe webshop systeem is onderzocht wat de goede en de slechte kwaliteiten van huidige webshop aanbieders zoals Shopify, Wosbee en MijnWebwinkel zijn. Aan de hand van de kwaliteiten van deze huidige webshop aanbieders zijn er punten van verbetering opgesteld. Tijdens het ontwerp van het systeem zijn er scenarioâs opgesteld aan de hand van het programma van eisen. Deze scenario's zijn omgezet in flowcharts. Daarna zijn er interface impressies met de hand uitgetekend, waarbij de flow van het systeem gevisualiseerd werd. Het systeem is geïmplementeerd met de iteratief-prototyping werkwijze, waarbij elk onderdeel uitvoerig werd getest op gebruiksvriendelijkheid en zonodig aangepast voordat een nieuw onderdeel werd geïmplementeerd. De webshop aanbieder Wosbee kwam op de laatste plaats in het kwaliteitsonderzoek. Het beheer van deze webshop is niet overzichtelijk en allerminst gebruiksvriendelijk; de webshop aanbieder scoorde een 5. De webshop aanbieder Shopify kwam als tweede uit de test; de webshop aanbieder scoorde een acceptabele 7,5. Mijnwebwinkel kwam als beste uit de test; deze webshop scoorde een 8. Het HellosSello systeem is met hetzelfde kwaliteitsonderzoek geëvalueerd als de huidige webshop aanbieders. Deze evaluatie wees uit dat het HelloSello systeem gebruiksvriendelijk en overzichtelijk is; op deze punten scoorde het systeem een overtuigende 9. De reden dat het systeem gebruiksvriendelijk en overzichtelijk is, komt volgens de ondervraagden door het feit dat elke aanpassing direct zichtbaar is. De adminbalk, met daarin alle beheer mogelijkheden van de webshop, aan de onderkant van de pagina zorgt voor een eenvoudige en consistente manier van beheren, omdat de Shop eigenaar hetzelfde ziet als de Shop klant. Door de javascript libraries die zijn geleverd, is het in het vervolg heel makkelijk om nieuwe onderdelen te integreren in het beheer systeem. Dit zorgt ervoor dat elk onderdeel in dezelfde stijl beheerd kan worden. Het HelloSello systeem is dus makkelijk in het gebruik en uit het kwaliteitsonderzoek blijkt het systeem een significante verbetering te zijn ten opzichte van de huidige webshop aanbieders. Ook is het systeem makkelijk uit te breiden met meer webshop functionaliteit, mits er gebruik wordt gemaakt van de geleverde javascript libraries.Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
“De mi huerto” POESÍAS - 1930
No full textIn this unpublished work, Father José Rafael Faría Bermúdez expresses all the vigor, interest, and affection of his youth. Following some contemporary advice, he deleted several poems of little literary value, added a few more, and subjected the remaining poems to a careful revision, some almost total; in others, he eliminated or corrected everything he found prosaic or commonplace, and he endeavored to carry out a smoothing and polishing process.
It\u27s clear that the author\u27s tastes were classical, something that permeates his entire work. When one is nurtured by the beauties of Horace and Virgil, of León, Garcilaso, and Lope, who could wrest this serene beauty from one\u27s heart? This isn\u27t a servile copy of themes, development, or turns of phrase, nor is it a stretched or stilted elaboration. What the author intended was to embrace the one true classicism, which has as its norm the balance of thought, feeling, and imagination; simplicity combined with elegance; and care in the choice and placement of words, to produce effects of musicality and grace.El Pbro. José Rafael Faría Bermúdez expone a través de esta obra inédita todo el brío, todo el interés y todo el cariño de su juventud. Siguiendo algunos consejos de la época, suprimió varias poesías de escaso valor literario, agregó algunas más, y sometió a las restantes a una cuidadosa revisión, en algunas casi total; en otras eliminó o corrigió todo cuanto encontró de prosaico o lugar común, y procuró llevar a cabo una labor de lima y pulimiento.
Se puede notar que los gustos del autor fueron clásicos, es cosa que trasciende en toda su obra. Cuando se es amamantado en las bellezas de Horacio y Virgilio, de León, Garcilaso y Lope, ¿quién podría arrebatarle del corazón esta serena belleza?. No se trata de la copia servil en los temas, en el desarrollo o en lo giros, ni de una elaboración estirada o relamida. Lo que el autor pretendió es abrazar al único y verdadero clasicismo, que tiene por norma el equilibrio del pensamiento, el sentimiento y la imaginación; la sencillez unida a la elegancia, y el esmero en la elección y colocación de las palabras, para producir efectos de musicalidad y gracia

La creación del sujeto
No full textIn this text the author supports that the human being is a possibility of self creation as long as he is able to configure desire, which is supported at the same time from a perfect force or from suitable ideas.

Dreams, sexuality and fantasy: a psychoanalytic reading of K. Sello Duiker’s novels
No full textThe primary aim of this thesis is to provide a text-based literary study exploring the characters and themes created by K. Sello Duiker in the three novels, Thirteen Cents, The Quiet Violence of Dreams and The Hidden Star. Duiker’s work is significant because it highlights prominent societal challenges prevalent in post-apartheid society. By analysing Duiker’s novels one acquires a better understanding of this author, an understanding of the world that contributed to the creation of his texts and his contribution to South African literature. Insight into Duiker’s fictional world allows for a careful investigation of the prominent societal issues prevalent in Duiker’s work - a world riddled with violence, issues of sexuality and psychological distress. For this purpose this thesis is premised on the notion that underpinning K. Sello Duiker’s oeuvre is a central focus on dreams, sexuality and fantasy. Logically, therefore, the main focus of the study is specifically on the inner working of the characters’ minds and how they deal/ or are unable to cope with contemporary social concerns, often resulting in psychological turmoil and dysfunctionality. For this reason, prominent themes examined in this study are the interpretation of dreams, an exploration of sexuality and an examination of fantasy in the three novels. Psychoanalytic literary theory, with the main focus being specifically on the theories presented by Sigmund Freud is used as an analytic tool to read Duiker’s texts. Psychoanalytic theory is arguably the most appropriate for analysing Duiker’s novels as it allows one to investigate the characters’ psyches and the psychological effect of societal influences on these characters. In addition, one is also able to examine how the characters are able/ unable to deal with the trauma caused by the contemporary issues in society – issues of violence, sexuality and psychological distress. Thus, one is able to grasp an overall understanding of the characters’ behaviour and actions. Furthermore, the characters’ experiences are based on the behaviour and incidents of real people, people suffering from psychological dysfunctionality, sexuality issues and identity crisis. The first chapter discusses post-apartheid literature, and provides a brief background on Duiker, his works and his conception as a writer. Chapter two provides an overview of psychoanalytic theory and on the relevant theories of Sigmund Freud. Chapter three offers a reading of Thirteen Cents, a novel that pays particular attention to the lives of children living on the streets of Cape Town. In the next chapter The Quiet Violence of Dreams is examined with a special focus on Duiker’s experimentation with form in the construction of this novel. Aspects pertaining to sexuality and dreams are also examined. Chapter five pays particular attention to magical realism and fantasy in The Hidden Star

Resurfacing Mechanics and Action in Music Notation: The Musicwriter
No full textThis text discusses the compositional use of the Musicwriter, a music notation device used after old engraving practices such as lithographic notation and metal printing blocks for music printing, but discontinued before modern digital notation. After a short description of this singular device, the author presents his ongoing composition/engraving project: 'Meaning The Score', a series of tyscores (or typed scores) performed using the Musicwriter; the notation of this series is conceived as an emergent property of the performative interaction with the Musicwriter, notation that is later reinterpreted by musicians that react to both, the live-typeset notation and the composer's performance that created the score in the first place
