Purpose of the study: The paper tries to model dynamic interactions of factors that contribute to the logistics center building. Conducting the desk review and expert consultation, the causality of ...the factors is systemized in a form of Causal Loop Diagram using the System Dynamics approach.
Methodology: System Dynamics (SD) is an approach for studying interlinked behaviors within a system and reflects the interactions of feedback loops. Compared to other approaches, SD demonstrates the real world by using factors and stocks for components and feedback loops for inter-relationships among them. SD model qualitatively illustrates the causal relationship among factors that influence the building of the logistics center.
Main Findings: A combination of four different sub-systems, using a questionnaire survey conducted with logistics service users and providers to sort out the high scored factors. Besides, the survey also helps to study the practical conditions and characteristics in showing the demand, the trend, and the development of logistics centers in Vietnam.
Applications of this study: Logistics centers (LCs) can be considered as a depot for vehicles where drivers and managers of vehicles are supposed to maintain, repair vehicles, and adjust vehicle operation schedules.
Novelty/Originality of this study: As defined by the scope of the project, the SD model provides a qualitative demonstration of the interaction among factors. The built model gives a systematic insight into how factors link to each other.
As a result of the growing ageing, senior tourists will become a powerful group in the near tourism future. According to this statement, our research asses that the silver tourism could represent, in ...the next years, a real instrument for the regional development. The aim of our study is to highlight the opportunity of capitalizing the aging phenomenon by the administrative institutions and local tour operators that might regenerate economically the southeast Romanian region. Methodologically, we used a survey based on two questionnaires. The first one was applied to a group of seniors enrolled at the University of Third Age Galati city. For now, this type of structure is unique in Romania. The second questionnaire containing a single question was applied to four categories of actors possible to be responsible and/or involved in the developing regional tourism process. The results reveals the connections existing between the main options of elderly and the forms of tourism developed at regional level, one the one hand, and the very minor attention paid by the local factors to it, on the other hand.
This research aimed 1) to study and analyze the condition of the problems and effects on religious and cultural tourism of the southeast region for economic cooperation in the ASEAN community, 2) to ...present the strategy of on religious and cultural tourism of the southeast region for economic cooperation in ASEAN community. This research is qualitative. The documentary studies and field studies were used. Finally, to present the findings with a method of descriptive analysis. The results indicated that 1) the condition of the problems and effects on religious and cultural tourism of the southeast region for economic cooperation in ASEAN community found that nowadays, places for travel religiously and culturally, there are problems in the sector that people do not truly understand the intentions of their originators. These places had a deficiency of creating the hallmarks in religious sites, the staff at religious and cultural attractions are inadequate to facilitate and provide relevant knowledge, as well as lack of clear tourism management. Tourist context local authorities also non-existence integrated work. 2) the strategy of on religious and cultural tourism of the southeast region for economic co-operation in the ASEAN community found that public relations invite local personnel to participate in activities to disseminate and convey experiences. The knowledge of the religious site is organized with outstanding activities and information. It should have tourism programs; signs in each location and should be written in the ASEAN languages. Prominently, the website of each location should be provided for easy searching.

This paper shows the economic development of the South- East Region of Romania, since 2007 until present. The research questions are the following: which are the main indicators that can determine ...the economic development on the level of Region and, also, which are the predictions about economic development of the Region? In this order were identified and analyzed significant economic indicators, such as gross domestic product at regional level; gross domestic product by category of resources; GDP per capita; number of private entrepreneurs; the number of active local units; staff of active local units; gross and net investments. Economic development of the South- East Region is possible because of foreign investments that contributed to replace old technologies with new technologies, to create jobs and increase productivity. For this study data were taken from the National Institute of Statistics and the National Forecast Commission.

The report deals with an analysis of the questionnaire inquiry results about Internal tourism in the Czech Republic in 2005 from the Czech Statistical Office sources. Besides basic information about ...the tourist trade statistics and terminology questions the core of this publication is the analysis of the Internal tourism in the NUTS II South-East region and both its parts (South Moravian region and Vysocina region) and its comparison with the Czech Republic. Authors tries to create a visitors background from the point of view of visit seasonality, a region from which he comes, an age, a travel purpose, a travel duration, an accommodation type, travel expenses and a conveyance used. Indicators were selected, in which the region visitors differ in comparison with the entire Czech Republic, eventually in which the visitors of South Moravian region differ from the Vysocina region visitors. At the conclusion authors speculate about the conditions of regional localization of the tourist trade satellite account in the Czech Republic.
This paper aims to draw essential facts of network city, to analyze the urban corridor in South-East region, Korea, as a network city. Firstly, the characteristics of the network city is examined ...theoretically. The global economy is developing an innovative class of network cities. A network cities evolve when two or more previously independent cities, potentially complementary in function, strive to cooperate and achieve significant scope economies aided by-fast and reliable transport and communications infrastructure. Network Cities place a higher priority on knowledge-based activities like research, education and the creative arts. Each constituting city stands to benefit from the synergies of interactive growth via reciprocity, knowledge exchange and unexpected creativity. Secondly, we discussed the network structure of cities in South-East region, Korea itself intensively. We survey the network location and outline of the urban corridor in South-East region, spatial specialization and interaction between the constituting cities. We also discussed the problems of the network cities in South-East region, Korea and introduced the desirable policies and alternatives. We can ascertain from the case study of cities in South-East region that the cities in South-East region corresponds the network city model fairly. 이 연구는 네트워크도시 모델의 관점에서 동남권 도시들의 연계 구조를 분석하고자 하였다. 이론적 논의에서는 네트워크도시의 특성을 검토하였으며, 이러한 관점에서 동남권 지역 도시들에 대한 적용 가능성을 고찰하였다. 사례지역 연구 결과, 동남권의 광역적 산업클러스터는 형태상으로 뿐 아니라 여타의 측면에서도 전형적인 네트워크도시의 특성을 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 주요 도시들의 독립성과 상호의존성, 성장 특성은 네트워크도시의 특징을 명확히 보여준다. 동남권 도시들은 상호 독립성을 유지한 채 긴밀히 연계되어 있으며 기능적으로도 분화되어 있다. 더하여 네트워크도시의 성장성과 함께 네트워크도시 내 중소 도시들의 성장도 두드러지게 나타났다. 이러한 도시간 연계는 지역 산업의 경쟁력을 지지하고 있는 것으로 사료된다. 동남권 지역의 산업경쟁력을 향상시키기 위해서는 산업 및 도시연계 구조에 부합하는 광역적 대응이 필요할 것이다.
이 글은 동남권 지역에 형성된 광역적 산업클러스터를 확인하고 그것을 효과적으로 지원하기 위한 방안을 모색한다.
이를 위해 산업클러스터의 광역화와 광역적 거버넌스에 관한 이론 및 선행연구들을 검토하고, 동남권의 기계․금속산업클러스터 형성실태를 분석하였다. 동남권의 산업도시들은 1970년대 후반에 이미 회랑형의 기계․금속산업벨트를 구축하였고 오늘날에는 십여 ...개의 산업도시들이 긴밀히 연계된 대규모 기계․금속산업클러스터를 형성하고 있다. 동남권 지역에 있어서 산업도시의 연계는 점차 규모가 확대되고 있을 뿐 아니라 제철, 조선, 자동차, 플랜트 분야 등에서 경쟁력이 높아지고 있다. 그리고 지리적 범위도 대구․경북 지역으로 확대되어 이제 그 형태가 목걸이형 혹은 수차(물레방아)형을 갖게 되었다. 그것은 행정구역상으로는 부산, 울산, 경남, 대구, 경북, 전남 일부를 포함하는 것이다.
그리고 이러한 분석에 기반하여, 동남권의 광역적 기계․금속산업클러스터의 산업경쟁력을 강화할 수 있는 정책방안과 거버넌스체계를 모색하였다. 동남권에서 근래에 대두하고 있는 문제는 산업적 연계망의 공간적 범위와 행정구역 간의 불일치이다. 산업클러스터의 광역화에 따라서 이를 효율적으로 지원하는 행정지원체계를 구축하기 위한 현실적인 방안들을 검토하였다.
This article is aimed to find a more successful way to build a metropolitan-widegovernance for enhancing industrial cluster in South-East region, Korea. We begin a research with reviewing a current study of regional cluster and its governance. Newindustrial system and agglomeration changed regional growth theory and urban system. Intraditional system, a central city dominated economy of the metropolitan area. However, withdevelopment of new transportation and communication technology, a central city lost theirsuperiority to suburban cities. In other words, growing competition between central and suburbancities changed traditional concentration and diffusion theory of urbanization which dominatedurban geography for last decades.Next, current situation of development of industrial cluster in South-East region is examined tosuggest policy for more competitiveness. South-East region has grown as the most prominentcluster of mechanical engineering and metal industry in Korea since the late 1970s. In the form ofagglomeration and network of a specific and its related industry, South-East region has formed alinear industrial belt along with the inter-regional South Coast Highway and contain about tenindustrial cities.Accompanying with this growing South-East region, a problem has risen from geographic mismatchbetween metropolitan-wide industrial cluster and its administrative boundary. Since industrialcluster has no specific administrative boundary, adequate government support for developingindustrial cluster has not been provided. Responding to the problem, academics and policy makersmaintain need in establishing a metropolitan-wide governance for supporting a cluster. KCI Citation Count: 5
