“…In third place is the category "Management Styles", which represents 9% of the publications, which are predominately studies on implementing the GE as a strategy in companies, for example proposing management models for companies that want to be "greener" and approach a more sustainable path [147,148]. Other applications found are developing a framework to evaluate and select green suppliers [149], guiding best practice to promote the GE and a model for making decisions related to ecological operations [150][151][152].…”

The concepts of bioeconomy, green economy and circular economy share the common objective of developing a sustainable economy, and they attract enormous political, academic, social and business interest. However, an analysis of these concepts in the fields of economics and business management is lacking. The objective of this article is to classify the publications on these topics by subject of study, to analyse trends in publications and to guide researchers interested in selecting articles. The review was performed using Scopus for the period 1960 to 2017. Four hundred and forty-nine publications were obtained and classified into 17 categories. The results show that the existing literature is rich in analysing implemented policies and issues related to the strategies and organizational models of companies looking for a more sustainable path, and research in China and the European Union is highlighted. However, there is still a long way to go in researching implemented case studies and evaluating the economic impact of these concepts. For this to happen, the need to promote, encourage and support companies to implement cleaner production and approach a more sustainable path must be prioritised. Possible gaps in current research that allow future lines of work are also identified.

To give the complete description of an environment or to take a robust decision, a number of observations are collected and combined from multiple sensor nodes. The process of combining and analyzing the observations is called multisensor data fusion. The fusion is used to produce more consistent, accurate, and useful information rather than provided by any individual sensor node. Data fusion finds wide application in many areas of such as object recognition, wireless sensor network, image processing, environment mapping, and localization. Nowadays, the Internet of Things (IoT) utilizes wireless sensor network (WSN) as a necessary platform for data sensing and communication. For efficiency, data fusion is performed on the sensed sample collected by the sensor nodes. However, fusion of the network parameters is also essential to select an appropriate sensor node for the forwarding of data. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a multisensor data fusion (MDF) strategy that performs fusion of the collected network parameters like bandwidth and centrality for the selection of an appropriate path. Extensive simulations were made, and related results showed that our proposed scheme has a better performance compared with other schemes in our simulated scenarios. KEYWORDS data fusion, Internet-of-Things, performance analysis, wireless sensor network INTRODUCTIONA wireless sensor network (WSN) is a type of network that contains large number of nodes having sensing capability such that they can easily detect any changes in the surrounding real-world environment. The nodes in WSN are used to carry sensed information from one to another desired location for further processing. 1,2 Technological advances are being developed daily, and a WSN plays a rapid contribution for providing smart communication with the use of smart devices. These smart devices perform communication at the different locations by providing a level of transparency among users and maintained an interconnected smart network. A number of sensor nodes are constituted by the smart network, which is used to send sensed information and termed as the Internet of Things (IoT). 3 In this paper, we called this network as an IoT oriented WSN. In this network, the users communicate with each other by exchanging of sensed data, monitoring of events, and surrounding and reacting autonomously. 4 The difference between the WSN and IoT oriented WSN is only the few sensors are deployed in WSN rather than along with smart devices for applications.However, the IoT oriented WSN consists of devices having sensors with full network connectivity. The network of IoT oriented WSN is concerned with the loss of packets and performance of the links for achieving high throughput in less delay.The services of IoT oriented WSN are provided by using a standard interface such that users can create a query, retrieve information, and change their states accordingly. An Internet link is used to provide the standard interface between users and IoT devices. The hardware components of a sensor no...

High operational costs of greenhouse production in hot and humid climate condition due to the initial investments on structure, equipment, and energy necessitate practicing advanced techniques for more efficient use of available resources. This chapter describes design and concepts of an adaptive management framework for evaluating and adjusting optimality degrees and comfort ratios of microclimate parameters, as well as predicting the expected yield in greenhouse cultivation of tomato. A systematic approach is presented for automatic data collection and processing with the objective to produce knowledge-based information in achieving optimum microclimate for high-quality and high-yield tomato. Applications of relevant computer models are demonstrated through case-study examples for use in an iterative way to simulate and compare different scenarios. The presented framework can contribute to future studies for providing best management decisions such as site selection, optimum growing season, scheduling efficiencies, energy management with different climate control systems, and risk assessments associated with each task.
