The impacts of tourism on poverty alleviation: an integrated Research Framework.
Journal of Sustainable Tourism, 2015Co-Authors: Diego R. Medina-muñoz, Rita D. Medina-muñoz, Francisco J. Gutiérrez-pérezAbstract:This paper aims to contribute to the academic Research on tourism and poverty alleviation, by providing an integrated Research Framework on the impacts of tourism on poverty. First, a conceptual discussion is presented in order to understand the potential of tourism to reduce poverty, as well as different approaches to promoting a direct link between tourism and poverty alleviation. Second, empirical studies published between 1999 and July 2014 were critically analysed in order to generate an empirical Research Framework that embraces the following issues: geographical scope, level of analysis, tourism context, study methods and poverty measure. Moreover, an integrative discussion of the empirical evidence regarding the contribution of tourism to poverty reduction is included. The proposed Framework, which is intended to be useful for guiding future empirical Research in this field, suggests associations between tourism initiatives, the poverty rate and the economic, socio-cultural and environmental condi...

scrum practices in global software development a Research Framework
Product Focused Software Process Improvement, 2011Co-Authors: Emam Hossain, Paul L Bannerman, Ross D JefferyAbstract:Project stakeholder distribution in Global Software Development (GSD) is characterized by temporal, geographical and socio-cultural distance, which creates challenges for communication, coordination and control. Practitioners constantly seek strategies, practices and tools to counter the challenges of GSD. There is increasing interest in using Scrum in GSD even though it originally assumed collocation. However, empirically, little is known about how Scrum practices respond to the challenges of GSD. This paper develops a Research Framework from the literature as a basis for future Research and practice. The Framework maps current knowledge and views on how Scrum practices can be used to mitigate commonly recognized challenges in GSD. This Research is useful as a reference guide for practitioners who are seeking to understand how Scrum practices can be used effectively in GSD, and for Researchers as a Research Framework to validate and extend current knowledge.
