In recent years, much work has been done in formulating and
clarifying the concept of sustainable development and related
theoretical and research issues. Now, the challenge has shifted to
designing and stimulating processes of effective planning and
decision-making, at all levels of human activity, in such a way as
to achieve local and global sustainable development. Information
technology can help a great deal in achieving sustainable
development by providing well-designed and useful tools for
decision makers. One such tool is the decision support system, or
DSS. This book explores the area of DSS in the context of
sustainable development. As DSS is a very new technique, especially
in the developing world, this book will serve as a reference text,
primarily for managers, government officials, and information
professionals in developing countries. It covers the concept of
sustainable development, defines DSS and how it can be used in the
planning and management of sustainable development, and examines
the state of the art in DSS use. Other interested readers will
include students, teachers, and analysts in information sciences;
DSS designers, developers, and implementors; and international
development agencies.
