With the development of the Internet, tourism and travel electronic commerce (e-commerce) have flourished in China, and the travel industry has experienced significant structural changes since 1999. This study examines how tourism and travel e-commerce boomed in China, how the tourism value chain has changed in the new environment, and the current status of China's tourism and travel e-commerce. Using data collected from 4,980 tourism and travel websites in China and the China Statistical Yearbook 2005, we examine the classification and functions of these websites. Our results suggest that travel agencies provide about half of the tourism and travel-related websites in China. Most websites still only provide general information, while some provide search, online reservation, and payment services.

Past and future events evocation appears to involve highly similar patterns of brain activation including, in particular, the medial prefrontal cortex, posterior regions and the medial temporal lobes. This result seems to support the view of a common neurocognitive system, which would allow humans to mentally travel through time. Past events recollection was associated with greater amplitude of hippocampal and anterior medial prefrontal hemodynamic responses. This result is discussed in terms of the involvement of the self in the conscious experience of past and future events representations. More generally, our data provide new evidence in favour of the idea that re- and pre-experiencing past and future events may rely on similar cognitive capacities.Mon Jan 21 14:31:22 CET 2008WienErstausg.Parallelinfo USA: Russland 2001/2000: http://parallelinfo.mur.at ; ein paralleles Projekt2002tschert travel Mon Nov 26 13:18:42 CET 2007NatureJan7075462-465The scaling laws of human travel4392006diffusion modeling randomprocesses travel epidemiology The dynamic spatial redistribution of individuals is a key driving force of various spatiotemporal phenomena on geographical scales. It can synchronize populations of interacting species, stabilize them, and diversify gene pools. Human travel, for example, is responsible for the geographical spread of human infectious disease. In the light of increasing international trade, intensified human mobility and the imminent threat of an influenza A epidemic, the knowledge of dynamical and statistical properties of human travel is of fundamental importance. Despite its crucial role, a quantitative assessment of these properties on geographical scales remains elusive, and the assumption that humans disperse diffusively still prevails in models. Here we report on a solid and quantitative assessment of human travelling statistics by analysing the circulation of bank notes in the United States. Using a comprehensive data set of over a million individual displacements, we find that dispersal is anomalous in two ways. First, the distribution of travelling distances decays as a power law, indicating that trajectories of bank notes are reminiscent of scale-free random walks known as L\{\'e\}vy flights. Second, the probability of remaining in a small, spatially confined region for a time T is dominated by algebraically long tails that attenuate the superdiffusive spread. We show that human travelling behaviour can be described mathematically on many spatiotemporal scales by a two-parameter continuous-time random walk model to a surprising accuracy, and conclude that human travel on geographical scales is an ambivalent and effectively superdiffusive process.Thu Oct 11 16:04:54 CEST 2007Nature462The scaling laws of human travel4392006scaling brockmann travel dynamics hufnagel RMP_CFL geisel laws human 2006 Wed Jun 20 10:16:09 CEST 2007Genova, ItalyAbstract Book of the XXIII IUPAP International Conference on Statistical Physics9-13 JulyPacket transport in the Internet with priority-based protocol2007topic-11 time mean jamming transition travel rate success priority statphys23 We study a packet transport on a scale-free network in which packets are composed of two types, being assigned priority or not. The priority-assigned packets are treated firstly in each queue compared with priority-not-assigned packets, and its fraction $q$ is controlled. We find that when the number of generated packets $n$ is small, the mean travel time between every pair of nodes is not affected by whether packets are assigned the priority or not. However, it is significantly different when $n$ is large beyond the jamming transition point. The mean travel time is reduced drastically for packets with priority, however, it remains unchanged for those without priority. We find that there exists a critical value $q_c$, under which priority-assigned packets do not experience jammed. Hence the new protocol based on the priority enhances the capability of packet transport in the Internet and could be applied to commercial download services or paid mail delivery system and so on.travelCommunity for tag(s) travel
