29-30th March, 2007 - Oldenburg, Germany
Information technology has become significant to all scientific groups and fields involved in environmental engineering: Model based systems which enable the study of environmental changes have been developed and are being extended to manage those environments. New paradigms for designing objects to enable easy disassembly and recovery of components contribute to reuse. Web-based information systems enhance public awareness to environmental changes and allow participation in decision making.
Developments in exploiting alternative energy sources are reducing dependence on non-renewable resources. Numerical economy-environment models contribute to cost-benefit analysis of environmental policy, and environmental monitoring and accounting systems facilitate market-based environmental regulation.
To ensure that these developments are enhanced, and continue to advance in the future, it is vital that all stakeholders have access to the tools, resources and information necessary. The ITEE 2007 conference will provide a forum for exchanging information among environmental engineers, computer scientists and economists.
