Study On Influence Of Technical Factors On The Path Of Hotel Development

As industries' continually upgrading and developing, application of the technologies, especially of new technologies, provides hotel development with orientation, which leads people to the research on hotel technology.Hotel technology is a complicated and comprehensive concept. More scholars direct the focus of hotel technology on to IT. Neither information technology nor synthetical technology in Chinese hotel industry is behind that of developing countries and regions. In order to have a place in international hotel's market competition, our country's hotel industry should take necessary measures to improve itself competition. This paper proposes some new ideas and views to improve Chinese hotel management competition based on predecessors' achievement. And it tries to contribute to improve the theory of industry technology, to promote the development of Chinese hotel technology.Based on the discussion of technology's essence, this article utilizes the theory of technology process and industrial convergence to analyze the relationship between technology and modern hotel, then proposes hotel technology's factors. Lastly, it analyzes the path selection of hotel technology based on technology theory, features of hotel technology in different stages and its influence on hotel development.The thesis is divided into five chapters. The first chapter is the introduction, which discusses the study background, explanation of topic selection, research methods, this thesis's innovation and insufficiencies. The second chapter is about the research of basic theories and the summary of interrelated literature. In third chapter, hotel technology's connotation, characteristic, and composing are analyzed based on the basic theories we stated. The forth chapter is analysis of hotel technology's primary factors based on four stages of technological revolution, then proposes the path selection of hotel technology. Last part is based on theory frame which has been stated, takes Guangzhou Hotel, the first official business hotel, for example to make an empirical study on its technological application. This thesis's key point lies in: based on technological philosophy, such as theory of technology process, industrial convergence, discussing the factors of hotel technology, emphasizing It's important meaning to the innovation of hotel technology. The main insufficiencies are lack of depth of theory, ability of data acquisition and depth of quantitative study.
