The population of study and sample size which was generated using the Taro Yamane formula was 6,647 and 377 cooperative members respectively. A multi stage sampling technique was used in selecting study participants. Data were sourced from a primary source. The generated data were presented and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The study hypothesis was tested using regression analysis. The findings revealed that 93 of the variation in physical needs of members is caused by the length of cooperative membership and frequency of cooperative patronage at a 5 level of significance. This study concluded that the length of cooperative membership and frequency of patronage enhances the actualization of the physical needs of members. Therefore, it was recommended among others that the cooperative societies should continue to strive in ensuring that members’ needs are reasonably met. In doing this, the cooperatives should possibly adopt a scale of preference approach in tackling members need.

This study examined strategic marketing A panacea for harnessing Nigerian tourism potential for social economic development. The study adopted survey method. The data for the study were collected through structured questionnaire administered on professionals and stakeholders in tourism industry and secondary data from the databases of the World Bank and World Economic Forum on international tourist arrivals and sustainability index for Nigeria. The study area was restricted to South Eastern States of Nigeria. The selected States include Anambra, Enugu, Imo, Ebonyi and Abia. A sample size of 150 was determined from the population of stakeholders in the industry which include management staff of the State’s Tourism Board, Travel Agents, Hoteliers and various Community Heads. Purposive sampling technique was adopted in administering the questionnaire on the respondents directly involved in tourism development and marketing in the study area. The data collected were presented and analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings indicated that there is no significant effect of sustainability of travel and tourism industry development on international tourist arrivals. It equally revealed that the aims of sustainable tourism were not seriously considered in the marketing strategies of the stakeholders. In order to attract more tourists from developed nations, issues of sustainability need to be integrated in the marketing strategy of the country’s tourism industry.

Effect of Tourism on Economic Wellbeing of Host Communities in Cross River St...ijtsrd
This study examined the effect of tourism on economic wellbeing of host communities in Cross River State, Nigeria. The study modelled the effect of service, product, hotels, transportation and infrastructural facilities on economic well being of host communities in Cross River State. It is a descriptive survey on a sample of 400 respondents from the host communities. Data obtained for the study were analyzed using percentages, mean, standard deviation and regression analysis. From the result of the regression model it was observed that product, service and infrastructure have positive impact on the on the economic well being of the host communities. This means that if product, service and infrastructure are developed and improved, it will bring about more increase in the economic well being of the host communities. On the other hand, hotels and transportation have a negative impact on the economic wellbeing of the host communities. Thus, increase in hotels and transportation cost will bring about a decline in the economic wellbeing of the host communities. The overall significance of the model also supports the alternate hypothesis that the model has goodness of fit and is statistically significant. In other words, tourism consumption has significant impact on the economic wellbeing of the host communities. Based on the analysis and findings of the study the following recommendations are made Since tourism consumption has become imperative for economies to thrive successfully, it is imperative that government should develop and as well as regulate operators in the tourism destination to step up the quality of product, service and infrastructure provided in the tourist destination. This is because they have been found to have positive impact on the on the economic well being of the host communities. The government should also come up with policy instruments containing measures that will effectively' monitor and evaluate the operations of tourism destinations. This is necessary as this research manifest the fact that hotels and transportation cost negatively affects the host communities. In other words it will bring about a decline in the economic wellbeing of the host communities if not regulated.

Sustainable Development Strategies of Domestic and International Tourism in R...ijtsrd
Given the complexity of the issues surrounding the concept of sustainable tourism, the current paper tries to provide a unified methodology to assess tourism sustainability. This work paper also will help us to analyze the chapter of tourism’s sustainable development, which is a development strategy. Given the economic, social and political importance in tourism, and also the overall contribution to the development of a region, we considered that a distinct approach of the tourism development strategies was required in domestic and international terms.This is then followed by a more detailed account on the conditions for a successful sustainable tourism policy, focusing in particular on collaboration and coordination, participation, decentralisation and information as well as strategic planning. These policy instruments are seen as crucial to facilitate sustainable tourism development.On the local level, the development strategy of Rwanda considers that tourism can become one of the key factors in the process of renewed strengths of the economy, given the fact that Rwanda has huge tourism potential, which is appropriate to the different types of tourism, at national and regional level. It is considered that one of the main issues which need to be addressed is the use of the Rwanda tourism potential and its use in inappropriate conditions.

Social Media in Tourism- A Double-Edged Swordijtsrd
Extensive spread of the Internet and speedy technological advancement have revolutionized all industries in the World specifically tourism. The presence of the information and communication technology have fundamentally change the way how tourists collect detailed information, how do they can carefully map decision substitutes, how they book their travel and how they share their unique travel experience with others. A vital step forward in the progress of the internet has been made by a noteworthy growth in the popularity of social media platforms. Social media plays a very important role in tourism which is an information based industry. Consumers need information that can assist them in the process of travel planning and making decisions related to selection of tourism destination and other travel related products. Social media has also extended the reach of industry as now they can easily target consumers sitting far away without even meeting them. Destination marketer use social media before the travel so as to engage and inform the tourists, during the travel so as to facilitate at destination and after the travel to remember and share experiences. But social media in tourism marketing can be both an aid and a threat as social media influences the tourism industry both in positive and negative ways, as the decisions of prospective travellers have been strongly affected by comments and personal experiences of other users on social media. The main objective of the paper is to understand the relationship between social media and destination marketing and to examine the positive and negative impact of social media marketing in tourism industry.

Standardization and Formulations of Calotropis ProceraYogeshIJTSRD
Plants growing in arid regions have elicited increased attention, because the hostile environment, in which these plants survive, forces them to develop chemical protective systems through adaptation which is rarely found in vegetation of other ecosystems. Furthermore, many of the plants grow in areas, where the dependence on traditional, plant based medicines over industrially produced pharmaceuticals persists to this day. The two plants, Calotopris Procera giant milkweed, also named C. Persica and Calotropis gigantea crown ower , have been used widely in traditional medicine in North Africa, the Middle East, and South and South East Asia. This has led to extensive research on the chemical constituents of the plants. Both plants are known to be sources of cardenolides, and newer research has yielded a number of interesting cancer active constituents. In addition, extracts of both plants have remarkable nematocidal, molluscidal and insecticidal activities. In many regions, the wood of Calotropis plants has been used as a building material and as a source of fuel. In addition, certain parts of the plants have been used as feed for livestock. In other regions, Calotropis plants are seen as invasive species that threaten local plant life and that due to their toxicity also pose a threat to grazing eld animals.

Review of the Diagnosis and Treatment of ParalysisYogeshIJTSRD
Paralysis is a complete loss of motor power in any muscle group. When paralysis affects all four extremities, it is called quadriplegia when it affects only the lower extremities, paraplegia and when it affects the extremities on one side of the body, hemiplegic. For this reason, the term paralysis is generally reserved for more focal, less stereotyped weakness, for instance, affecting all the muscles innervated by a peripheral nerve. Many different anatomical lesions and etiologies can cause paralysis and determine its treatment. Bikash Debsingha | Dr. Gourav Kr.

Automatic Query Expansion Using Word Embedding Based on Fuzzy Graph Connectiv...YogeshIJTSRD
The aim of information retrieval systems is to retrieve relevant information according to the query provided. The queries are often vague and uncertain. Thus, to improve the system, we propose an Automatic Query Expansion technique, to expand the query by adding new terms to the user s initial query so as to minimize query mismatch and thereby improving retrieval performance. Most of the existing techniques for expanding queries do not take into account the degree of semantic relationship among words. In this paper, the query is expanded by exploring terms which are semantically similar to the initial query terms as well as considering the degree of relationship, that is, “fuzzy membership- between them. The terms which seemed most relevant are used in expanded query and improve the information retrieval process. The experiments conducted on the queries set show that the proposed Automatic query expansion approach gave a higher precision, recall, and F measure then non fuzzy edge weights.

A New Proposal for Smartphone Based Drowsiness Detection and Warning System f...YogeshIJTSRD
This paper proposes a Smartphone based system for the detection of drowsiness in automotive drivers. The proposed system uses three stage drowsiness detection technique. The first stage uses the percentage of eyelid closure PERCLOS which is obtained by capturing images with the front camera of the Smartphone with a modified eye state classification method. The system uses near infrared lighting for illuminating the face of the driver during night driving. The second step uses the voiced to the unvoiced ratio VUR obtained from the speech data from the microphone, in the event PERCLOS crosses the threshold. The VUR is also compared with a threshold and if it is a value greater than that of the threshold, it moves on to the next verification stage. In the final verification stage, touch response is required within the stipulated time to declare whether the driver is drowsy or not and subsequently sound an alarm. To awake the driver, a vibrating mechanism is done and also the live GPS location is also sent to an emergency contact. We have studied eight other reference papers for the literature review. The system has three advantages over existing drowsiness detection systems. First, the three stage verification process makes the system more reliable. The second advantage is its implementation on an Android smart phone, which is readily available to most drivers or cab owners as compared to other general purpose embedded platforms. The third advantage is the use of SMS service to inform the control room as well as the passenger regarding the loss of attention of the driver.

Data Security by AES Advanced Encryption StandardYogeshIJTSRD
Now a days with the rapid development of multimedia technologies, research on safety and security are becoming more important. Multimedia data are generated and transmitted through the communication channels and the wireless media. The efficiencies of encryption based on different existing algorithms are not up to the satisfactory limit. Hence researchers are trying to modify the existing algorithm or even develop new algorithms that help to increase security with a little encryption time. Here in this paper, we have furnished a new technology to modify the AES algorithm which gives more security with a little encryption time and which can be used to encrypt using 128 bit key. Theoretical analysis on the proposed algorithm with the existing reveals the novelty of our work. Here we have proposed a technique to randomize the key and hidden the key data into an encrypted digital image using the basics concept of cryptography and also using the concept of digital watermarking, the concept of key hide has also been encrypted. We have also proposed a new technique to reposition the pixels to break the correlation between them. So, the proposed scheme offers a more secure and cost effective mechanism for encryption. Next on the AES criteria list good performance. Widespread market adoption will require reasonably good performance on a variety of platforms, ranging from easy tocrack smart cards to the largest servers. Good algorithm performance includes speed for the encryption and decryption process as well as the key schedule.

Security Sector Reform toward Professionalism of Military and PoliceYogeshIJTSRD
The need to understand and at the same time give prescriptions for the direction of security reform in Third world countries after the end of World War II has prompted the emergence of a big project called the study of security reform SSR . Within this framework emerge various theories and strategies for security reform, with various variations, including ideological variations that underlie these theories. The reform of the structural aspect is a reform of the institutional and structure of an institution, the instrumental reform includes the reform of the system, laws and regulations, while the reform of the cultural aspect is a reform of the habits or organizational culture in institutions in general and in particular the Timor Leste’s security institutions, both military and police.

The study sought to determine the extent to which the usage of social media in the marketing of agricultural products in South West Nigeria can enhance farmers turnover. It employed the survey research design to collect data with the help of a structured questionnaire to elicit information from respondents selected from six 6 south western states. Research data were analysed using structural equation modelling. The results showed that the use of social media WhatsApp and Facebook in marketing of agricultural products significantly enhances farmers turnover. The managerial implication is that use of Whatsapp and Facebook in the marketing of agricultural products for the enhancement of farmers’ turnover was found to have significant influence on the enhancement in farmers’ turnover from agricultural products. Policy makers in government should provide the enabling environment for the telecommunication companies to enhance their reach by installing their facilities across the length and breadth of the country so that the network coverage will be strong at all times so that the benefits of social media usage will not be constrained.

The severity and mortality of COVID 19 cases has been associated with the Three category such as vaccination status, severity of disease and outcome. Objective presently study was aimed to assess the severity and mortality among covid 19 patients. Methods Using simple lottery random method 100 samples were selected. From these 100 patients, 50 patients were randomly assigned to case group and 50 patients in control group after informed consents of relative obtained. Patients in the case group who being died after got COVID 19 whereas 50 patients in the control group participated who were survive after got infected from COVID 19 patients. Result It has three categories such as a Vaccination status For the vaccination status we have seen 59 patients were not vaccinated and 41 patients was vaccinated out of 100. b Incidence There were 41 patients were vaccinated whereas 59 patients were not vaccinated. c Severity In the case of mortality we selected 50 patients who were died from the Corona and I got to know that out of 50 patients there were 12 24 patients were vaccinated whereas 38 76 patients were non vaccinated. Although for the 50 control survival group total 29 58 patients were vaccinated and 21 42 patients was not vaccinated all graph start. Conclusion we have find out that those people who got vaccinated were less infected and mortality rate very low.

A mathematical equation which involves a function and its derivatives is called a differential equation. We consider a real life situation, from this form a mathematical model, solve that model using some mathematical concepts and take interpretation of solution. It is a well known and popular concept in mathematics because of its massive application in real world problems. Differential equations are one of the most important mathematical tools used in modeling problems in Physics, Biology, Economics, Chemistry, Engineering and medical Sciences. Differential equation can describe many situations viz exponential growth and de cay, the population growth of species, the change in investment return over time. We can solve differential equations using classical as well as numerical methods, In this paper we compare numerical methods of solving initial valued first order ordinary differential equations namely Euler method, Improved Euler method, Runge Kutta method and their accuracy level. We use here Scilab Software to obtain direct solution for these methods.

Evaluation of Different Paving Mixes Using Optimum Stabilizing ContentYogeshIJTSRD
Bituminous mixes are most commonly used all over the world in flexible pavement construction. It consists of asphalt or bitumen used as a binder and mineral aggregate which are mixed together, laid down in layers and then compacted. Under normal circumstances, conventional bituminous pavements if designed and executed properly perform quite satisfactorily but the performance of bituminous mixes is very poor under various situations. Today’s asphaltic concrete pavements are expected to perform better as they are experiencing increased volume of traffic, increased loads and increased variations in daily or seasonal temperature over what has been experienced in the past. In addition, the performance of bituminous pavements is found to be very poor in moisture induced situations. Considering this a lot of work has been done on use of additives in bituminous mixtures and as well as on modification of bitumen. Research has indicated that the addition of polymers to asphalt binders helps to increase the interfacial cohesiveness of the bond between the aggregate and the binder which can enhance many properties of the asphalt pavements to help meet these increased demands. However, the additive that is to be used for modification of mix or binder should satisfy both the strength requirements as well as economical aspects.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Types of objects that can be visited
The beauty of the tourist attractions
Today we can see hundreds of digital resources which
provide huge range of data in order to inform people
about the place, the way, the service and the prices of
a place where they will visit and spend their money.
The global importance of tourism is steadily rising,
creating new job opportunities in many countries.
Today’s information management solutions for the
complex tasks of tourism intermediaries are still at an
early stage from a semantic point of view. The
tourism product has an intangible nature in that a
prospective traveler cannot touch the product before
the trip. This is one major reason why information
about tourism and travel services (e.g. destination,
hotel, restaurants, events, transportation etc.) must be
accurate and credible, one that fosters users’
confidence.[2] One way to achieve this level of
credibility is to engage knowledge representation
formalisms that can sufficiently capture all relevant
facts about tourism objects in a domain on which
approaches to rendering tourism information services
can be based. An ideal approach to achieve this is the
use of ontologies which provide the platform on
which recommendation formalisms that exploit deep
knowledge of the user, tourism objects, and other
relevant contextual information that closely model
reality can be built. [2]
As competition between tourism destinations
increases, local culture is becoming an increasingly
important source of new products and activities to
attract and amuse tourists. Gastronomy has a
particularly important role to play in this, not only
because food is central to the tourist experience, but
also because gastronomy has become an important
source of identity formation in postmodern societies.
More and more, ‘we are what we eat’, not just in the
physical sense, but also because we identify with
certain types of cuisine that we encounter on holiday.
As tourists become more mobile, so does the food
they eat. The comfortable association of certain foods
with certain regions is being challenged by the
growing mobility of food, culinary styles and the
increasing de-differentiation of dishes and cuisines.
Far from producing an homogenized gastronomic
landscape, the tension between globalization and
localization is producing ever more variations. [3]
The aim of this research is to build database based on
ontology for gastronomic tourism in Uzbekistan,
especially in Bukhara region.
The research objectives are as follow:
Develop ontology for database of gastronomic
tourism of Bukhara region
Create XML Schema Definition (XSD)
Create Extensible Markup Language (XML)
Database with ontology concept is a start point of any
issue whether economic or technological sphere.
Touristic product is a thing which cannot be
touchable or seen till you receive all services and feel
the real quality of that. In 2019 near the 5 million
people visit Uzbekistan in terms of travel and
business including local and international tourists.
Depending upon the potential of country this number
is not high.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Over recent decades, gastronomy tourism has gone
beyond the table setting and now includes all sectors
of a destination’s food and tourism chain – producers
(agriculture, fishing, etc.), processing firms (dairies,
olive mills, canning plants, wineries, etc.), the tourism
and hospitality sector (restaurants, specialised
accommodation, gastronomic activity firms, etc.), the
retail sector, the commerce sector (sale of products)
and even the knowledge sector.
With a view to the publication of the Global Report
on Food Tourism, a survey was conducted among the
UNWTO AFFILIATE Members in order to know
their opinion about current situation of Food Tourism.
Responses form Affiliate Members, working in
diverse sectors around the world, were received in
this regard.[4]
According to the results this survey, 88.2% of
respondents consider that gastronomy is a strategic
element in defining the brand and image of their
destination. Only 11.8% were of the opinion that
gastronomy plays a minor role
Digital technologies have brought significant
transformation to the tourism industry,
revolutionising tourism enterprises, products and
experiences, business ecosystems, and destinations.
Digitalisation has also transformed the traditional
roles of tourism producers and consumers, with new
roles, relationships, business models, and
competencies emerging. The rise of digital platforms
has increased the variety and volume of tourism
products, services and experiences, with on-demand
functionality accelerating the speed of economic
transactions, market awareness and feedback.
Digitalisation leverages digital technologies and data
to transform businesses and business ecosystems. It
transforms markets and production processes, and has
significant implications for economic and social
organisation, innovation, and competitiveness. [5]
Tourism cannot thrive without accurate and reliable
information about a destination which will be the

main element that will draw tourists/visitors. A visitor
cannot visit a place without information about.
In 2018 more than 5 million people visited
Uzbekistan, and this number is twice as much than
2016 from 2 690. million. 6 748. Million tourists
came to the republic during 2019 and it was more
than 26.2 % comparing to 2018. [6]

The State Committee for the Development of Tourism and the Association of Cooks of Uzbekistan jointly
implement several projects in this direction. On December 12, in the framework of the project “Gastronomic
Tours of Uzbekistan”, courses on “Hospitality Schools” were held in several districts of Tashkent.
Management data of tourism can be done by developed database and using ontology concept. The use of
ontology is able to integrate heterogeneous schemes in various domains. A number of frameworks designed
using an ontology-based integration approach have developed in recent years and provide many benefits.
In building ontology concept there are 7 main steps, which are:
Step 1. Determine the domain and scope of the ontology
Step 2. Consider reusing existing ontologies
Step 3. Enumerate important terms in the ontology
Step 4. Define the classes and the class hierarchy
Step 5. Define the properties of classes—slots
Step 6. Define the facets of the slots
Step 7. Create instances [7]
Tourism has historically been dependent on the character of the destination, including attractions, beaches and
resorts. It is a complex activity that requires the availability of certain parameters (e.g. accessible road networks,
standard accommodation facilities, attractions etc) and information on potential and existing attraction sites.
Information on these parameters and attraction sites can be gathered, processed, organized and stored using tools
such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Geographic Information System (GIS) coupled with remote sensing.

@ IJTSRD | Unique Paper ID – IJTSRD44944 | Volume – 5 | Issue – 5 | Jul-Aug 2021 Page 737
After gathering the needed data about a destination, the data must be stored in a retrievable form to enhance
tourism, and this can be achieved with the aid of GIS.
Figure 2. Ontology development process
The problem with information aggregation is that the information is not structured in the same manner. Each
data source, or application, has a different data representation and provides different data formats for integration.
HTML, XML, flat files, relational model are some of examples that we can find in an aggregation problem.
Another problem is the semantic differences between data sources. We can find the same word with different
meanings. For example, in one data source, customer can refer to the tourists in others it can refer to the travel
agencies. [8]
Ontology provides a rich and predetermined vocabulary that functions as a conceptual interface that is stable and
does not depend on data schemes; knowledge represented by ontology is comprehensive enough to support the
translation of all relevant information sources; ontology supports consistent management and recognizes
inconsistent data. [7]

make this research.
2. Data Collection, contains what types of data we collected in this research and the ways to collect number of
tables.
3. Develop the Ontology, this step shows building ontologies for gastronomy.
4. Develop XSD, this step is also known as the framework, schema, or the table is usually referred to as a field.
Develop XSD is made to make visible the connection between the data and to define the block structure of
XML documents.
5. Develop XML, this step is based on a framework XSD document that has been done, using special tags to
declaring the version of XML, the attribute that contains information of the object, and elements that
describe the object.
ANALYSIS AND RESULTS
The country of Uzbekistan is a country rich in culture which makes it a beautiful country as a tourist destination.
Many ways are carried out by the government of Uzbekistan to improve the tourism sector, such as establishing
collaboration with other countries, provide information in websites about Uzbekistan, promoting the tourism
sector through online media.
Data Collection In order to build the ontology in this research we collected the data from the website from
Google browser and official telegram page of the restaurants, which included to the tables.
The steps are:
1. Define how many tables we need.
2. Identify the fields and columns we need and clarify the names and data in this columns. After the headers of
the data table are clear, we started entering the data just below the respective column headings. In this
database terminology, we called the rows Records, and columns called Fields.
When entering records we took into consideration these regulations:
Do not leave any blank rows in the table. This includes not leaving a blank row between the column
headings and the first row of data.
A record must contain data about only one specific item.
A record must also contain all the data in the database about that item. There cannot be information about an
item in more than one row.
3. While rows in an Excel database are referred to as records, the columns are known as fields. Each column
needs a heading to identify the data it contains. These headings are called field names. We used field names
to ensure that the data for each record was entered in the same sequence. We entered the data in a column
using the same format. Data collection done by collect data from website about gastronomic in Uzbekistan.
Data collection contains:
How many tables related with gastronomic
Data for each tables
In this research, gastronomic tourism data has 4 (four) tables, are:
1. Table of Country
2. Table of City
3. Table of Restaurant
4. Table of Menu
Ontology for Gastronomic tourism
Ontology for gastronomic tourism database has a superclass, the name of superclass is “Gastronomic”. Based on
data collection, we define subclasses are:
1. Country
2. City
3. Restaurant
4. Menu
Each subclass has an attributes, are:
5. Country: Country Code, Country Name

Figure 4.2 is an XSD script for gastronomic ontology. There are several elements that consist of parent elements
and child elements. The <xs: element name = “Gastronomic”> element is the root element or parent element.
After that, there are other elements that define the contents of the “Gastronomic” element, such as <xs: element
name = “country_code”>, <xs: element name = “country_name”>, <xs: element name = “city_code”>, and <xs:
element name = “city_name”> which has a string data type.
The <xs: element name = “restaurant _”> element is a derived element from the “Gastronomic” element.
Derivative elements occur because the amount of data that has the same object in the “Gastronomic” element is
more than one, so we need derived elements so that all data on these elements can be read completely. Other
elements in the “restaurant_” element are <xs:element name = “restaurant_code”>, <xs:element name =
“restaurant_name”>, <xs:element name = “address _”>, <xs:element name = “phone_number”>, <xs:element
name = “web_page”>, <xs:element name = “opening_time”>, and <xs:element name = “closing_time”> which
also have string data types.
In the “restaurant_” element there are also derived elements, namely <xs:element name = “menu _”>. This
element must exist because in a restaurant there are usually various types of menu choices. So it is necessary to
create derived elements so that all data on these elements can be read completely. Other elements in the “menu_”
element are <xs:element name = “menu_code”>, <xs:element name = “menu_name”>, and <xs:element name =
“price”> with the string data type.
XML for Gastronomic tourism Ontology
XML for Gastronomic tourism Ontology can be seen in Figure 5.
Figure 5. XML for Gastronomic tourism Ontology
Figure 4.3 is the XML program code for gastronomic ontology. XML creation must be based on a pre-built XSD
framework or schema. The framework here means the arrangement of each program block in XML must match
that made in XSD.
The XML structure for declaring the XML version used is contained in the first line of code, which is <? Xml

filled in according to the data held and the program block code is repeated until all existing data have been
entered.
It is clear that the XML program block for the gastronomic ontology follows the preconceived framework or
schema in the XSD, with the same indent for each element. This XML schema has been validated through the
web page http://www.utilities-online.info/, with the result of its validity being “XML Document is Well
Formed”.
XML Schema Definitions provide a rich set of predefined primitive types along with a mechanism to customize
these types to create an accurate specification of XML documents.
The predefined types can be classified into several groups.
Numeric
Date and time
XML types
String
Boolean
URIs
Binary data
CONCLUSION
The discussion in this research is about developing a
database by designing ontology in tourism data. This
study aims to answer the objectives of the research
that has been carried out, after several series of
analysis were carried out, three conclusions were
obtained based on the method used, as follows:
1. The formation of a corpus scheme is done by
creating XML Schema Definition (XSD) which
produces an XSD documents. The resulting XML
Schema Definitions (XSD) document was
declared valid after testing the XSD scheme has
been validated through the web page
http://www.utilities-online.info/, with the result of
its validity being “XSD Document is Well
Formed and Valid”.
2. Then, making Extensible Markup Language
(XML) is done with the help of programs written
using the Python programming language to
produce XML documents. The Extensible
Markup Language (XML) document produced
has been declared valid after testing the validity
of the document schema has been validated
through the web page http://www.utilities-
online.info/, with the result of its validity being
“XML Document is Well Formed”.
Suggestions
Based on the description of the research results and
conclusions, there are several things that are
recommended to the parties related to this research as
follows:
XSD can be used by programmers to verify each
part of the item’s content in the document; in this
research XSD and XML documents were created
for future researchers who will have desire for
programming of Gastronomic tourism
applications;
The ontology concept created in this research is
an example to prepare database for gastronomic
tourism sector.
