In diesem Tagungsband zu den 10. BUIS-Tagen (20. Tagung der Fachgruppe Betriebliche Umweltinformationssysteme der Gesellschaft für Informatik e. V.) werden Thematiken „smarter“ Städte und Regionen unter Einsatz von nachhaltigen IKT-Lösungen in Beiträgen aus Wissenschaft und Praxis vorgestellt. Betriebliche Umweltinformationssysteme erfassen, analysieren und stellen hierbei umweltrelevante Daten für vielschichtige Prozesse bereit. Das Spektrum der Fachbeiträge zeigt die Vielfalt der Fragestellungen und den Einsatz von IKT-Lösungen in der Förderung der Ziele für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung auf. Wesentlichen Raum nehmen Beiträge zur Wissenschaftskooperation und zum Erfahrungstransfer zwischen afrikanischen und europäischen Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern auf allen Themenfeldern der Tagung ein. 

This proceedings volume brings together the results of a corporate discussion on research, academic teaching and education in the field of business and economics in the context of globalization. The contributions examine leadership and sustainability, quality and governance and the internationalization of higher education. With a particular focus on business education and business schools, the book discusses the labor market and modernization as well as contemporary trends and challenges. By including both academic papers and contributions from industry, it forges research links between academia, business and industry.

Potentially dangerous environmental changes are occurring in the atmosphere, oceans, and animal habitats, particularly in areas where hazardous materials have been improperly managed. These escalating issues, which also impact human health, necessitate interdisciplinary collaboration among engineers, natural scientists, economists, and computer scientists. Information technology plays a crucial role across all scientific disciplines involved in environmental engineering. Model-based systems have been developed to study and manage environmental changes, while new design paradigms facilitate the easy disassembly and recovery of components for reuse. Web-based information systems raise public awareness of environmental issues and encourage participation in decision-making processes. Advances in alternative energy sources are decreasing reliance on non-renewable resources. Numerical economy-environment models aid in the co-benefit analysis of environmental policies, and monitoring systems support market-based environmental regulation. Progress hinges on scientific teams having the necessary experience, methods, and tools to investigate environmental changes. Achieving success requires a high level of organization concerning technical, scientific, and human aspects of information management. This publication presents the outcomes of the ITEE 2007 conference, where these topics were discussed among experts in environmental engineeri
