Knowledge Engineering for Innovation and Sustainability presents a conceptual framework for designing action-oriented solutions to sustainability problems. It is an interdisciplinary examination not only of knowledge engineering, but also innovation, allowing environmental scientists to gain a better understanding of technological solutions and innovative methods. It is organized in a methodical way, first by defining sustainability and innovation, then by laying out a conceptual framework. It goes on to explore causality and systems thinking for examining a particular phenomenon, and then presents processes for analysis and design. Finally, it lays out the narrative of sustainability as well as what needs to be done in order to take action and looks to the future of sustainability and the ways in which transdisciplinary science and innovation can help us reach a sustainable society.By applying key concepts of innovation and knowledge engineering to sustainability problems, Knowledge Engineering for Innovation and Sustainability provides a structured approach to putting theory into practice for sustainable development. Offers comprehensive theory for converting knowledge to action Provides practical insights for implementation in business and policy Relates theory to specific cases and topics on innovation and sustainability INDICE: 1.
