In this paper, I argue that Herbert Simon＇s notion of ＂satisficing＂ provides a formally well-developed and empirically well-established theory of rationality that fits well with Kuhn＇s general characterization of science. I start by considering two rival interpretations of the problem of Kuhnian rationality and introduce Simon＇s notion of satisficing. In Section 3, I show how satisficing can be used to interpret paradigm, change, rational theory-choice, relativism, and progress. On this account, Kuhnian scientists are not irrational. Rather they employ the same computational mechanism which allows humans to play chess.展开更多

Currently, the supply of cruise tourism market include port infrastructure, cruise line, cruise companies and travel agencies. Demand in the market, with the perspective of domestic cruise tourists, discusses the structural characteristics of tourists, aspects consumption characteristics, route selection and visitor satisfaction and other characteristics. And from multiple perspectives analysis of the domestic cruise market problems, on this basis, we propose to strengthen the construction of port facilities, the implementation of cruise tourism promotion plan, effectively guide the development of domestic consumption cruise countermeasures.展开更多
