Sustainability is being an important discipline for the society and governments, a research field that require the use and application in Management Science (MS) and Operations Research (OR). In this book, we will introduce the topics of MS and OR together with Sustainability. We will start with basic concept and will present cases, applications, theory, and potential future. We will invite authors to contribute chapters to the book to cover as wide array of topics as space permits. Examples will be from renewable energy; smart industry; city; transportation; home and smart devices. We will discuss future applications, trends, and potential future of this new discipline.<\/p>

Purpose of the Book<\/strong><\/p>

Sustainability, a challenge for mankind for our planet, can be understood as the quality of being able to continue over a period of time, where management science (MS) and operations research (OR) are being used to that propose. MS and OR could include machine, equipment, human, animal, anything. It could transfer text, signals, media, software, etc. To build and manage sustainability, new disciplines have emerged in MS&OR such as advanced analytics, machine learning, etc. Specifically, this book will provide an interface between the main disciplines of engineering\/technology and the organizational, economic, administrative, and planning capabilities of managing sustainability.<\/p>

Objective of the Book<\/strong><\/p>

This book will aim to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in sustainability in Management Science and Operations Research. It will be written for professionals who want to improve their understanding of the strategic role of sustainability at various levels of the information and knowledge organization, that is, sustainability at the global economy level, at networks and organizations, at teams and work groups, of information systems and, finally, sustainability at the level of individuals as players in the networked environments.<\/p>

Target Audience<\/strong><\/p>

This book is intended for professionals in the field of energy, engineering, information science, mathematics, economics, and researchers who wish to develop new skills in sustainability, or who employ the sustainability discipline as part of their work.
