The optimal goal of an NSD project is to sustain the developed service. However, from the perspective of project management, how an NSD project team cooperates across organizational boundaries and various disciplines to achieve the sustainability of the new service is essential to the return on investment. This study adopted activity theory to model the actions taken by different entities in a mobile healthcare service project using WiMax technology, in which we identified important factors affecting the sustainability of an NSD project.

In order to resolve this problem, this paper presents a new blog recommender system based on cloud computing infrastructure. This system adopts the user collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm in blog search, uses Hadoop distributed file system to store mass blog data and implements the distributed processing of blog crawl and index creation stages. The blog recommender engine of the system records user preferences from the blog search results firstly, then finds out user potential preference content by using collaborative filtering algorithm to generate individual and high quality blog recommendation with high reliability and scalability. The experimental results show that the blog recommendation can meet the user's requirements.","PeriodicalId":147619,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Joint Conference on Service Sciences","volume":"37 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134634955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, with the fast scale expansion of domestic users and online suppliers, OTAs now have to face the fierce homogenized and price-oriented competition, which lead to the fiercer market competition and decreasing advantage of cost saving and low price, while the competitiveness related to service customization, personalization and value co-creation needs a marketing logic shift. In this paper, after introducing the goods-dominant logic (GDL) and the service-dominant logic (SDL), we present a configurative framework to demonstrate the implementation of different marketing logics, explain the fitness of SDL to OTA, and then analyze its limited but inspiring implementation with a case study of Ctrip.","PeriodicalId":147619,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Joint Conference on Service Sciences","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121153886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper aims at selecting services from a global view for all users, thereby optimizing service resources utilization and improving users' satisfaction. It first normalizes different QoS attributes into one single value. Then a global optimal service selection model is raised and calculated by bipartite graph method with some modifications.
