Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to identify synergy fields and relationships between knowledge management and environmental informatics. From the perspective of knowledge management many sophisticated techniques, concepts, and methodologies developed in the domain of environmental informatics can build the starting point for finding answers to open questions in knowledge management. For example, meta-knowledge management can capitalise on existing results gained in the area of metadata management, which plays a key role in environmental informatics. Up to now, many tools for knowledge processing have been applied in the domain of environmental informatics to help solve environmental problems. New knowledge management tools can improve this situation which in turn contributes directly or indirectly to a significant improvement of the protection of our environment. In order to achieve its objective, the paper introduces knowledge management with a strong focus on information technology. This introduction is followed by a literature survey on knowledge processing in environmental applications. Thereafter, several environmental information systems are analysed in the light of knowledge management. A special emphasis is placed on how geographical information systems can be used for knowledge management. Finally, the paper closes with suggestions of further areas of research in the synergy field of knowledge management and environmental informatics.

Abstract:
Environmental Informatics is an interdisciplinary subject and it is the combination of Environment related subjects and Informatics related subjects. It is the utilization and applications of Informatics and IT principles and tools in Environmental Management, Environmental Monitoring, and Science. In other words, it is the practice of Sustainable Computing and Information Technology. Environmental Informatics is responsible for the applications of Information Technology in Environment, Nature and various allied subjects and areas like Geology, Agriculture, Forestry, Geography, Climatology, Oceanography and all these are valuable stakeholders of Environmental Informatics. Ecology Informatics in some contexts is related with Eco Informatics. Environmental Informatics is broader than Environmental Information Technology; as it interconnects both environmental as well as information science for the complete natural processes with language common to both humans and computers. Internationally Environmental Informatics has become a field of study in many universities. Apart from PG degree in recent past Environmental Informatics has also started at Bachelors level and many universities have started an initiative on this. This is a conceptual paper and also analytical study regarding Environmental Informatics including its basic feature and importance as an academic program. The paper shows about the universities which offer Bachelors degree in brief.

Abstract:
The academic sector is changing rapidly and different components have been added in the academic components. The education systems including academic bodies, programs, educational institutes change different aspects in the recent past. The interdisciplinary sciences are booming internationally. Among the interdisciplinary subjects, Environmental Sciences is an important one. On the other hand, Information Science is also truly interdisciplinary. This Information Science is also called as Informatics. The fusion or combination of these two subjects led the new academic body called ‘Environmental Informatics’. Environmental Informatics is very close with exiting field Geo-Informatics and thus it is also called as an extension of Geo-Informatics. Environmental Informatics is the solution to different environmental affairs, issues, problems, etc. Internationally, many universities have started academic programs on Environmental Informatics leading to Certificate, Diploma, Bachelors, Masters, MPhil, PhD in the subject. The present paper is an overview of Environmental Informatics including its features, functions, stakeholders emphasizing the availability of Post Graduate Programs in the field. Paper highlighted the course contents, job prospects, carrier opportunities in brief. Paper also proposed the possible programs at Masters levels; which can be a good solution both for abroad and the Indian education system.

Abstract:
Environment is an alarming concern and valuable to all of us, as all of us belong to the environment and ecology in a different context. There are different studies available related to the environment and as far as Informatics is concerned, it is the field of practice and study related to the information systems and information activities using tools, techniques and technologies. The applications of Informatics in different areas and branches are important concerns viz. agriculture, healthcare, transport and tourism, education and training, government and administration, business and commerce; and in this context Environmental Informatics are important. This is the application of Informatics and Information Technologies in the environment and allied subjects. There are universities and academic bodies offering Environmental Informatics academic programs mainly from the environment and allied departments and units. Though, the field is a combination of both the areas and thus can be offered in Informatics or allied departments or bodies. As far as Informatics related branches are concerned important are IT, Information Systems, Information Management, Computer Sciences, etc. And in all these departments or units Environmental Informatics can be started as a Major or Specialization with proper educational policies. iSchools is an international consortium and body dedicated to combining all information related institutes, departments and programs under one roof with a focus on technologies for the societies and different sectors. Thus, the field of Environmental Informatics can be started easily in the iSchools. Furthermore, in recent past iSchools considered as the academic units offering information or IT related programs irrespective of their affiliation to the iSchools Organization, United States. This is maybe considered as a policy paper for the environmentalist, educationalist, IT educators to think about the potentialities of Environmental Informatics in Informatics or IT or simply iSchools related departments, programs, etc.

Abstract:
Abstract The amount of information available has increased due to the development of our modern digital society. This has caused an information overflow, meaning that there is lot of data available but the meaningful information or knowledge is hidden inside the overwhelming data smog. Nevertheless, the large amount of data together with the increased capabilities of computers provides a great opportunity to learn the behaviour of different kinds of phenomena at a more detailed level. The quality of life, well-being and a healthy living environment, for example, are fields where new information services can assist the creation of proactive decisions to avoid environmental problems caused by industrial activity, traffic, or extraordinary weather conditions. The combination of data coming from different sources such as public registers, companies’ operational information systems, online sensors and process monitoring systems provides a fruitful basis for creating new valuable information for citizens, decision makers or other end users. The aim of this thesis is to present the concept of intelligent information services and a methodological background in order to add intelligence using computational methods for the enrichment of multidimensional data. Moreover, novel examples are presented where new significant information is created and then provided for end users. The data refining process used is called data mining and contains methods for data collection, pre-processing, modelling, visualizing and interpreting the results and sharing the new information thus created. Information systems are a base for the creation of information services, meaning that stakeholder groups have access only to information but they do not own the whole information system that contains measurement systems, data collecting, and a technological platform. Intelligence in information services comes from the use of computational intelligent methods in data processing, modelling and visualization. In this thesis the general concept of such services is presented and concretized using five cases that focus on environmental and industrial examples. The results of these case studies show that the combination of different data sources provides fertile ground for developing new information services. The data mining methods used such as clustering and predictive modelling together with effective pre-processing methods have great potential to handle the large amount of multivariate data in this environmental context also. A self-organizing map combined with k-means clustering is useful for creating more detailed information about personal energy use. Predictive modelling using a multilayer perceptron (MLP) is well suited for estimating the number of tourists visiting a leisure centre and to find the correspondence between pulp process characteristics and the chemicals used. These results have many indirect effects on reducing negative concerns regarding our surroundings and maintaining a healthy living environment. The innovative use of stored data is one of the main elements in the creation of future information services. Thus, more emphasis should be placed on the development of data integration and effective data processing methods. Furthermore, it is noted that final end users, such as citizens or decision makers, should be involved in the data refining process at the very first stage. In this way, the approach is truly customer-oriented and the results fulfil the concrete need of specific end users<br>Tiivistelmä Informaation määrä on kasvanut merkittävästi tietoyhteiskunnan kehittymisen myötä. Käytössämme onkin huomattava määrä erimuotoista tietoa, josta voimme hyödyntää kuitenkin vain osan. Jatkuvasti mitattavan datan suuri määrä ja sijoittuminen hajalleen asettavat osaltaan haasteita tiedon hyödyntämiselle. Tietoyhteiskunnassa hyvinvointi ja terveellisen elinympäristön säilyminen koetaan aiempaa tärkeämmäksi. Toisaalta yritysten toiminnan tehostaminen ja kestävän kehityksen edistäminen vaativat jatkuvaa parantamista. Informaatioteknologian avulla moniulotteista mittaus- ja rekisteritietoa voidaan hyödyntää esimerkiksi ennakoivaan päätöksentekoon jolla voidaan edistää edellä mainittuja tavoitteita. Tässä työssä on esitetty ympäristöalan älykkäiden informaatiopalveluiden konsepti, jossa oleellista on loppukäyttäjien tarpeiden tunnistaminen ja ongelmien ratkaiseminen jalostetun informaation avulla. Älykkäiden informaatiopalvelujen taustalla on yhtenäinen tiedonlouhintaan perustuva tiedonjalostusprosessi, jossa raakatieto jalostetaan loppukäyttäjille soveltuvaan muotoon. Tiedonjalostusprosessi koostuu datan keräämisestä ja esikäsittelystä, mallintamisesta, tiedon visualisoinnista, tulosten tulkitsemisesta sekä oleellisen tiedon jakamisesta loppukäyttäjäryhmille. Datan käsittelyyn ja analysointiin on käytetty laskennallisesti älykkäitä menetelmiä, josta juontuu työn otsikko; älykkäät informaatiopalvelut. Väitöskirja pohjautuu viiteen artikkeliin, joissa osoitetaan tiedonjalostusprosessin toimivuus erilaisissa tapauksissa ja esitetään esimerkkejä kuhunkin prosessin vaiheeseen soveltuvista laskennallisista menetelmistä. Artikkeleissa on kuvattu matkailualueen kävijämäärien ennakointiin ja kotitalouksien sähköenergian kulutuksen pienentämiseen liittyvät informaatiopalvelut sekä analyysi selluprosessissa käytettävien kemikaalien määrän pienentämiseksi. Näistä saadut kokemukset ja tulokset on yleistetty älykkään informaatiopalvelun konseptiksi. Väitöskirjan toisena tavoitteena on rohkaista organisaatioita hyödyntämään tietovarantoja aiempaa tehokkaammin ja monipuolisemmin sekä rohkaista tarkastelemaan myös oman organisaation ulkopuolelta saatavien tietolähteiden käyttämistä. Toisaalta, uudenlaisten informaatiopalvelujen ja liiketoimintojen kehittämistä tukisi julkisilla varoilla kerättyjen, ja osin yritysten hallussa olevien, tietovarantojen julkaiseminen avoimiksi

Abstract:
Citizen Science projects are initiatives in which members of the general public participate in scientific research projects and perform or manage research-related tasks such as data collection and/or data annotation. Citizen Science is technologically possible and scientifically significant. However, as the gathered information is from the crowd, the data quality is always hard to manage. There are many ways to manage data quality, and reputation management is one of the common approaches. In recent year, many research teams have deployed many audio or image sensors in natural environment in order to monitor the status of animals or plants. The collected data will be analysed by ecologists. However, as the amount of collected data is exceedingly huge and the number of ecologists is very limited, it is impossible for scientists to manually analyse all these data. The functions of existing automated tools to process the data are still very limited and the results are still not very accurate. Therefore, researchers have turned to recruiting general citizens who are interested in helping scientific research to do the pre-processing tasks such as species tagging. Although research teams can save time and money by recruiting general citizens to volunteer their time and skills to help data analysis, the reliability of contributed data varies a lot. Therefore, this research aims to investigate techniques to enhance the reliability of data contributed by general citizens in scientific research projects especially for acoustic sensing projects. In particular, we aim to investigate how to use reputation management to enhance data reliability. Reputation systems have been used to solve the uncertainty and improve data quality in many marketing and E-Commerce domains. The commercial organizations which have chosen to embrace the reputation management and implement the technology have gained many benefits. Data quality issues are significant to the domain of Citizen Science due to the quantity and diversity of people and devices involved. However, research on reputation management in this area is relatively new. We therefore start our investigation by examining existing reputation systems in different domains. Then we design novel reputation management approaches for Citizen Science projects to categorise participants and data. We have investigated some critical elements which may influence data reliability in Citizen Science projects. These elements include personal information such as location and education and performance information such as the ability to recognise certain bird calls. The designed reputation framework is evaluated by a series of experiments involving many participants for collecting and interpreting data, in particular, environmental acoustic data. Our research in exploring the advantages of reputation management in Citizen Science (or crowdsourcing in general) will help increase awareness among organizations that are unacquainted with its potential benefits.

Abstract:
The coexistence of species is probably one of the most interesting and complex phenomenon in nature. We constructed an agent based model to study the coexistence dynamics of prey - predator populations by varying productivity levels of producers in fragmented and connected habitats along with different levels of quality of predators. Our results indicated that productivity levels of producers in fragmented and connected habitats along with levels of predator quality are significantly responsible for overall predator - prey population size and survivorship. In the absence of predation, competition between identical prey populations is more probable in connected habitats than in unfragmented or fragmented habitats. Implementing low quality predators in the habitats positively influences the overall coexistence dynamics whereas implementing high quality predators tend to decrease the prey populations. Fragmented habitats provide for greater prey population survival time in highly productive environments but low prey population survival time in less productive environments.

Foram analisados cinco estudos de casos em montadoras do segmento de informática, localizadas no Brasil.

Later, a qualitative analysis of each case was administered, wherein they were compared and the data was synthesized in order to understand the current situation as it pertains to the topic. When compared with the international literature, the results showed that this sector in Brazil has similar features to its equivalent sectors in developing countries where it has been studied (e.g., China). In reported cases, it was discovered that the main practices adopted in the studied companies are the same as those found in the literature which are: 1. Internal environmental management; 2. Green purchasing; 3. Investment recovery, which demonstrates the similarities in developing countries. In analyzing the green supply chain practices and mechanisms of dissemination, this study showed that these green supply chain practices depend on theirs suppliers (from an upstream to downstream chain) and the green supply chain dissemination depends more on custormes' actions (form a downstream to upstream chain). Thus, it can say that the supply chain is consumer driven (brand) in; therefore being the strongest link in the supply chain. Therefore, the green supply chain management approach is considered an extension of envirommental management practices and supply chain management practices to control...

Abstract:
<p>This project is associated with the field of Information Systems and more specifically with Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs). These environments are becoming very popular the last years, especially in higher education. However we decided to focus in lower level education since there is lack of these learning platforms and their spreading is limited.</p><p>More specifically our project will focus on the description of a Virtual Learning Environment for preliminary schools. The target age will be 5-8 years old. The design of our system is based on the guidelines of a preliminary schoolteacher in Spain, who is actually our stakeholder. Designing a system for so young students means that various aspects have to be taken into consideration such as their level of computer knowledge, their maturity, their not still developed studying abilities and the fact that it is their first approach to school as a learning environment. However we believe that if they can be integrated in the information society in such an early age, it will be beneficial for their future and the future of information technologies as well. We hope that through this project we will be able to contribute to computer based education and equip the young students with new ways and potentials of learning.</p><p>On a theoretical basis, we could say that our project contains two different parts: a theoretical part and a more practical one. In the theoretical part, all the related work of similar VLEs is presented in an effort to see what products already exist in the market and try to create a new, innovative system taking into consideration various educational aspects. In addition, a review of our literature research concerning computer based education and VLEs is included in order to provide the necessary theoretical background before starting to design our system. Finally, a summary of our research made including questionnaires and interviews as well as the analysis and the conclusions of this research are presented since before designing our system we tried to include the opinion of the different people involved in this system like the students and their parents, the teachers and the pedagogues. On the other hand, the second more practical part focuses on the description of the learning platform. The architecture of the system as well as the use cases is included here. A prototype of the system is also provided but we were not able to complete the whole implementation due to time limitations.</p>

Abstract:
Experimentos ambientais são fundamentais para entender os efeitos das mudanças climáticas, como o decréscimo de polinizadores encontrados na natureza. Esses experimentos devem ser compartilhados com uma metodologia integrada. Desenvolver e aplicar ferramentas de tecnologia da informação em diferentes áreas de pesquisa é primordial para melhorar processos de controle e análise de dados, sem requisitar que pesquisadores de outras áreas tenham conhecimentos avançados em tecnologias da computação. Para isso, é importante a utilização de uma infraestrutura de hardware e software aberta e disponível aos pesquisadores, por meio de portais na web conhecidos como Weblabs, para aquisição e compartilhamento de dados obtidos através de sensores. Este trabalho apresenta uma arquitetura de sistemas de informação para a implementação de Weblabs a partir dos conceitos de SOA, para solucionar o problema de heterogeneidade e interoperabilidade de ambientes, visto que os dados são coletados por diferentes tecnologias de redes de sensores em suas bases de dados. Para tanto, fez-se necessária a modelagem de uma base de dados central capaz de armazenar dados oriundos de diferentes sistemas, acessíveis por meio do consumo de serviços disponibilizados pelo Weblab.<br>Environmental experiments are fundamental to understand the effects of climate change, such as the decline of pollinators in nature.

For this it is important to use an open infrastructure of hardware and software made available to researchers through web portals, known as Weblab for acquisition and sharing of data obtained by sensors. This paper presents a model of information systems architecture for the implementation of a Weblab based on the concepts of SOA, to solve the problem of heterogeneity and interoperability of environments, since the data is collected by different network technologies of sensors in its databases. It was necessary for the modeling of central database capable of storing data from different systems accessible through the consumption of the service provided by the Weblab.

We live in an era where interactivity is gradually becoming more available, yet our schoolsare not catching up to this trend, instead we are faced with passive learning environmentswhere active construction of knowledge is limited. In this study we looked at theconstructivist approach to learning and compared it to the objectivist approach that iscommonly used in most schools of today. We looked at other successful interactive learningenvironment and how they may look like. We developed a passive educational video and aprototype of an interactive learning environment, where the interactive environmentworked as a supplement to the educational video. We further conducted a quantitative testthrough a questionnaire on these environments to see if the learning outcome of theinteractive learning environment outperformed the learners of the educational video. Thedata we collected did not show any significant difference between passive and interactivelearning, it did, however, show some interesting trends such as younger participants ingeneral performed better than older participants in our interactive learning environment.

Chinese local banks need to improve their abilities by providing high quality services and using information technology more intelligently. GIS technology can help this.</p><p>The thesis from two aspects investigates how GIS can help bank for customer services, one is site selection of bank branches or ATMs and another is providing bank loan to customers. We choose case study as a research strategy for this thesis. The research is based on the theoretical frameworks starting with GIS analysis methods, GIS processes, customer service management and GIS applications in banks. We learn from previous author's experiences and use Norrkoping spatial data for analyzing as methodology demo to acquire an understanding of how to utilize GIS to support customer services for banks.</p><p>As a result, GIS can help banks to improve customer services management. The general processes are data collection, data analysis, and data display. Building a GIS support system based on "customer focus" in a bank is a good choice under the pressure of commercial competitions. Nevertheless, for offering better service to customers, bank can combine web in GIS support system. How to optimize Web GIS for customer query from World Wide Web could be one opportunity for the future research.</p>

Full text
Abstract:
The selection and prioritization of field locations that most warrant direct examination of the pipe or other maintenance activities requires prediction of the coating conditions and the environmental conditions underneath a disbonded coating, which may support corrosion or cracking.� Current above ground measurements provide little information and to improve our ability of site-selection, this project considered a combined experimental and modeling approach to specifically identify those coating properties and environmental conditions that can lead to damaging SCC environments. Soil box experiments indicated that near-neutral pH SCC environments are supported by shielding coatings and intermediate conductivity soils, where increased pH levels can be the result of improved current penetration in high conductivity soils or low buffering capacity in low conductivity soils.� As the pH increases, the environment becomes less conducive to near-neutral pH SCC.� TECTRAN modeling indicated an important role of coating permeability to CO2 in maintaining a near-neutral pH.� Degradation of the mastic adhesive may be another source of CO2.
