Application of Information Technology to Environmental Protection

Our economy and our society are being built on decentralized information networks of interaction powered by the Internet and information technologies. On the other hand, the information technologies can reinforce the role of knowledge-generation and information-processing as sources of value. With the help of the IT, we can monitor the environment at real-time on-line. IT provides many methods to analyze the data and control the pollution, and we have developed many programs on environmental impact assessment and environment management. Making mathematic models to simulate the environment change, such as simu- lating the diffusion of gas in the air, is very helpful for environment impact assessment and environment protection. Those simulations can provide the suggestions on environment policy making to the government, too.
