Journal of Smart Tourism

Journal of Smart Tourism is to promote top-notch research in areas where smart technology may challenge the tourism industry, transform business, and induce behaviors that focus on business networks, travel services, as well as other areas such as design contents, products, devices, and process innovation. To address this particular purpose, the journal will provide theoretical and empirical foundations from end-users (i.e., travelers) and organizational perspectives with technology and systems for smart cities, smart ecosystems, heritage and historic cities, and a sustainable environment. The development or application of new methodologies or a synthesis of existing bodies of knowledge will enrich not only technology-enhanced tourism but also contextual inquiries with regard to potential tourists’ behavior patterns, communication protocols, their media preference, and their decision-making process in traveling. Based on this, tourism and hospitality business and organization will synthesize new business models and applications to migrate toward smart tourism.

Therefore, Journal of Smart Tourism attempts to provide underlying guidelines in smart tourism that will allow all of tourism & hospitality species to create valuable tourism business.
