Awareness of stakeholder interactions and sustainable development (SD) issues in the management of information and communication technologies (ICT), forces companies to adopt the concepts of Green IT and corporate social responsibility (CSR) to meet the challenges of agility and innovation, also to create differentiation in governance processes and strategic alignment of ICT. In this paper, we ...

This perspective discusses nine conditions for enhancing the performance of multistakeholder partnerships for sustainable development. Such partnerships have become mainstream implementation mechanisms for attaining international sustainable development goals and are also frequently used in other adjacent policy domains such as climate change, health and biodiversity. While multistakeholder arr...

The awareness of the Sustainable Development (SD) issues and stakeholder interactions in the field of information and communication technologies (ICT) management, forces companies to adopt the concepts of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Green IT to meet the challenges of innovation agility, and afterwards to create differentiation in the processes of governance and strategic alignment...

This study seeks to benefit from a medical science-based implication for urban and landscape planning in the Gorgan Township area, a highly developing region in northeastern Iran. Based on growth stages and patterns of a malignant cancer tumor inside a human's body, a sustainable, realistic and practical urban growth pattern is introduced applying land suitability analysis, SLEUTH urban growth ...

Very high resolution satellite images are used to derive the spatial distributions of landscape ecological metrics within suburban areas. These indicators are weighted mean patch size and lacunarity computed from thresholded normalized difference vegetation index obtained from multispectral IKONOS-2 imagery. Spatial distributions of the metrics are derived for an extensive suburban area on the ...

After the global developments that occurred, most important of which is spread Covid 19 pandemic, it was imperative to pay attention outdoor spaces preserve public health. There are studying relationships between sustainable landscape design, people, and urban environment. The research problem revolves around a commitment design rules, included variables in natural space environment: environmen...

human activities induced changes in land cover/use have extensive impacts on the landscape. in recent years, these changes had an increasingly growth due to irrational use of the natural resources in iran. hence, considering the negative effects of the inappropriate use of land and land-use change, understanding of the landscape changes over time is necessary to planning and implementation of s...

This paper demonstrates an integrated method for studying cropland loss dynamics and the resultant impacts on sustainable development spanning the past 10 years (1996–2006) in response to rampant urban growth. This study deploys remote sensing to obtain accurate measures of cropland change information and applies GIS to examine the spatio-temporal trajectory of cropland loss. Coupled with lands...
