Описание: This brief contains information on the reduction of environmental impact and explains how it is a key driver for the R&D of new forest products. The authors, experts in the field, describe how Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is used to assess the environmental impact of such products, e.g. in order to guide R&D or attract investments. The authors describe the main challenges of carrying out LCAs on forest products, make recommendations for managing these challenges, and discuss future research needs. LCA case studies are used to illustrate the challenges, covering a variety of forest products: building components, biofuels, industrial chemicals, textile fibres and clothing. Described challenges include the planning of LCA studies (e.g.how can one use LCA in R&D?), the modelling of product systems (how can one handle multi-functionality and uncertainties related to waste handling and geographical location of future production?) and environmental impact (how can one assess water and land use impact, and the climate impact of biomass?).
Описание: Fossil fuels will remain the backbone of the global energy economy for the foreseeable future. With the pressing need to mitigate climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the fossil energy industry is exploring the possibility of carbon dioxide disposal in geological media.

Описание:
Oil and gas projects have special characteristics that need a different technique in project management. The development of any country depends on the development of the energy reserve through investing in oil and gas projects through onshore and offshore exploration, drilling, and increasing facility capacities. Therefore, these projects need a sort of management match with their characteristics, and project management is the main tool to achieving a successful project.
Written by a veteran project manager who has specialized in oil and gas projects for years, this book focuses on using practical tools and methods that are widely and successfully used in project management for oil and gas projects. Most engineers study all subjects, but focus on project management in housing projects, administration projects, and commercial buildings or other similar projects. However, oil and gas projects have their own requirements and characteristics in management from the owners, engineering offices, and contractors' side.
Not only useful to graduating engineers, new hires, and students, this volume is also an invaluable addition to any veteran project manager's library as a reference or a helpful go-to guide. Also meant to be a refresher for practicing engineers, it covers all of the project management subjects from an industrial point of view specifically for petroleum projects, making it the perfect desktop manual.
Not just for project managers and students, this book is helpful to any engineering discipline or staff in sharing or applying the work of a petroleum project and is a must-have for anyone working in this industry.

Описание: This book examines the current massive changes in the software product industry on the basis of business model changes affecting six software products, and proposes a generic framework for business model innovation. Due to the combined effects of globalization, new market expectations and IT consumerization, the software industry has been experiencing a period of fundamental and rapid change. Achieving agility and the ability to innovate has now become vital, thus forcing organizations to create immense potential for innovating their business models. Proprietary and open source software (OSS) licensing represent the two extreme ends of the spectrum that could be used to build the business model of a software product. Given the changed face of the software product industry, successful software product vendors are innovating their business models by adopting a variety of combinations of these unilateral and new business models. However, these innovations also pose a number of challenges. The book examines these challenges in the context of several software product case studies in which companies successfully (or in some cases, less successfully) met these challenges and changed their business models.Focusing on the major issues related to business models in the software product industry, the book is targeted for a variety of readers: software entrepreneurs/start-ups, software product industry professionals, academics and students. Though the industry and technologies are changing rapidly, the issues addressed here are fundamental and will remain important ones for the foreseeable future.
