This comprehensive Research Handbook provides international
perspectives on the role of information systems in environmental
sustainability, drawing on groundbreaking research from leading
scholars to predict future trends. This Research Handbook presents
in-depth studies on green information systems which utilise a
diverse range of approaches and methods, including reviews of
previous literature, experimental studies, surveys, and interviews.
Chapters focus on the development and promotion of energy
informatics, the use of digital technologies in the implementation
of a circular economy, and the role of information systems in
supporting the integration of renewable energy. This Research
Handbook further analyses the ways in which digital nudging, demand
response, and the impact of psychological ownership can influence
consumer behaviour and encourage sustainable consumption. Tackling
the issues facing information systems and the environment on an
individual, organisational, and societal scale, this Research
Handbook will be crucial reading for students and scholars in
business ethics, environmental management, information systems, and
management and sustainability. It will also be beneficial for
practitioners in business management and corporate social
responsibility who are interested in environmental sustainability.
Shipping is the world's oldest sharing economy and is conducted in
a self-organizing manner. Shipping is capital, energy, and
information intensive, and with the growing impact of
digitalization and climate change, there is a need to rethink the
management and operations of this critical global industry -
assisted in no small way by maritime informatics. Building upon the
recently published inaugural book Maritime Informatics by Springer,
this book will address some of the most recent practical
developments and experiences, particularly from a global
perspective. The focus of the book is to address contemporary
movements to tackle global concerns and to complement Maritime
Informatics.

This first book on Maritime Informatics describes the potential for
Maritime Informatics to enhance the shipping industry. It examines
how decision making in the industry can be improved by digital
technology, and introduces the technology required to make Maritime
Informatics a distinct and valuable discipline. Based on
participating in EU funded research over the last six years to
improve the shipping industry, the editors stipulate that there is
a need for the new discipline of Maritime Informatics, which
studies the application of information systems to increasing the
efficiency, safety, and ecological sustainability of the world's
shipping industry. This book examines competition and collaboration
between shipping companies, and also companies who serve shipping
needs, such as ports and terminals. Practical examples from leading
experts give the reader real world examples for better
understanding.
This exciting new text from The Dryden Press provides a strategic
marketing and managerial perspective of electronic commerce. The
research of the four highly-qualified authors provides the basis
for the book, allowing for first-hand experience, varied
viewpoints, and relevance.
