Nowadays, weekend travel is gradually gaining people's attention due to societal impacts, with the desire to improve health, relax, rest, and entertain after days of exhausting work. Therefore, the development of weekend travel is a strategy of interest to managers and leaders, leading to intense competition among destinations. Although it has been long established worldwide, weekend travel in Vietnam has only recently gained popularity, primarily among young people. Therefore, researching the factors influencing the decision to choose weekend travel destinations is significant in developing strategies for this type of tourism. The research results show that the choice of weekend travel destinations by Ho Chi Minh City tourists is driven by various internal and external factors. Among them, internal motivations, income, convenience in the trip, the image of the destination, etc., are factors rated highly by tourists. There are significant differences in some internal and external factors according to age groups. Model testing and research hypotheses indicate that 66.4% of destination choices are influenced by the proposed factors in the model. Among them, the destination image has the most significant impact, followed by income, internal motivations, and distance. The remaining factors in the model have low or no impact on the satisfaction and commitment to return to weekend travel destinations for Ho Chi Minh City tourists.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a frequent condition in which the body's sugar levels are abnormally high for an extended length of time. It is a major cause of death with high mortality rates and the second leading cause of total years lived with disability worldwide. Its seriousness comes from its long-term complications, including nephropathy, retinopathy, and neuropathy leading to kidney failure, poor vision and blindness, and peripheral sensory loss, respectively. Such conditions are life-threatening and affect patients’ quality of life. Therefore, this paper aims to identify the most relevant features in the diagnosis of DM and identify the best classifier that can efficiently diagnose DM based on a set of relevant features. To achieve this, four different feature selection methods have been utilized. Moreover, twelve different classifiers that belong to six learning strategies have been evaluated using two datasets and several evaluation metrics such as Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-measure, and ROC area. The obtained results revealed that the correlation attribute evaluation method would be the best choice to handle the task of feature selection and ranking for the considered datasets, especially when considering the Accuracy metric. Furthermore, MultiClassClassifier would be the best classifier to handle Diabetes datasets, especially when considering True Positive, precision, and Recall metrics.

This study looks at how gamifying the classroom might help students retain and apply what they have learned in the Jordan educational system. During the year-long research, 500 participants from a wide range of educational attainment levels served as participants. Immediately after participation in gamified courses, participants retain a significant proportion of their newly acquired skills over a long period of time, demonstrating a notable improvement in retention. Important factors that affect how well one remembers newly acquired abilities include intrinsic motivation and interest. What's more, studies have shown that there's a strong link between keeping knowledge and being able to use it elsewhere, which highlights the need of maintaining competence for maximum efficiency in applying knowledge in the real world. Important implications for the Jordan educational system may be drawn from the findings since they are consistent with the goals of Vision 2030. The goal of this nationwide effort is to train workers who can sustainably advance the nation's economy and culture.

A robust authentication method is needed to protect online user accounts and data from cyber-attacks. Using only passwords is insufficient because they can be easily stolen or cracked. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) increases security by requiring two or more verification factors from the user before granting access to a resource such as an online account or an application. MFA is essential to a strong identity and access management (IAM) policy. This study evaluates and contrasts several MFA methods for online systems, including Microsoft Authenticator, FIDO2 security keys, SMS, voice calls, and biometrics. We assess these methods based on four criteria: security, usability, cost, and compatibility. We discover that only some MFA methods excel across the board. The best MFA method will depend on the organization's and users' specific needs and preferences. Each MFA method has benefits and drawbacks on its own. Based on our analysis, we do, however, make some general observations and recommendations, such as preferring FIDO2 security keys and certificate-based authentication for high-security scenarios, choosing Microsoft Authenticator and biometrics for high-usability scenarios, and avoiding SMS and voice calls for low-security and low-usability scenarios.

The goal of this study is to investigate the efficacy of gamified training programs and the influence of contextual variables on skill learning in the specific context of Saudi Arabia. Current research examines the impact of cultural and socioeconomic variables on the efficacy of gamification as a motivating tool. Moreover, it explores the use of real-world situations in skill-development initiatives, paying special attention to how such programs mesh with the aims of Saudi Vision 2030. The goal of this lofty strategy is to develop a knowledgeable and talented labor force and stimulate economic growth. Incorporating quantitative analysis helps to reveal a statistically significant and positive association between involvement and the enhancement of abilities, lending credence to the efficacy of gamified techniques. Extensive studies have also shown that a wide range of external influences have a major impact on the educational setting. Culture, social status, technical progress, and level of education are just a few examples of the many characteristics that fall under this category. They all contribute significantly to the educational setting. To effectively bridge the gap between academic ideas and their practical manifestations, it is crucial to include real-world experiences. Policymakers, educators, and organizations working to improve skill development within Saudi Arabia's specific context may gain much-needed insights from the aforementioned results.
