State Regulation of Digital Technologies for Sustainable Development and Territorial Planning

Abstract

In the current context, the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) faces the challenge of ensuring sustainable development and effective state regulation. One key issue is to foster coordination and cooperation among different regions and EAEU member states in the development of digital technologies. This study aims to propose directions for state regulation of digital technologies and their integration into a comprehensive mechanism for sustainable development and planning, within the concept of smart territories. We introduce the concept of smart territories as an outcome of sustainable development and planning, enabled by the adoption of digital technologies. Based on an expert survey, we identify key parameters for sustainable development and planning in smart territories, including stakeholder interests, modern challenges for territorial communities, and success factors. We conclude that the integration of digital technologies into smart territories can provide new standards for quality of life and economic development, while preserving the natural resources of these territories. Based on a balanced use of resources, our study highlights the need for a comprehensive strategy for the sustainable development of smart territories, addressing economic, social, and environmental issues.

Achieving the principles of sustainable development: Implementation of smart solutions in the infrastructure of modern megacities

“…Most definitions include the use of digital technologies to improve the efficiency of services, and the integration of ICT and IoT sensor solutions for managing city assets and processes [36,37]. The most common in smart cities is the use of digital technologies, such as building information modeling [38,39], the constant increase in Internet speed [40; 41], the Internet of Things [42; 43], big data [44; 45], cloud services [46; 47], AI -to solve demographic, economic, environmental and social problems of megacities [48][49][50][51][52]. In general, smart megacities can be interpreted as a megacity, where the management system is aimed at improving the quality of life of the population through the digitalization of various spheres of life.…”

“…In the long term, the well-being of megacities and their inhabitants is determined by the effectiveness of planning and development of urban areas [3], infrastructure in them, minimizing risks [4], and meeting the needs of a growing population [5]. Therefore, the high density of megacities inevitably leads to problems, including traffic congestion [6], increased energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions [7], the need for waste disposal [8], as well as an increase in crime and the spread of antisocial behavior [9].…”

Developing a Method for Building Business Process Models Based on Graph Neural Networks in the Absence of Task Identifier Data

“…Business process modeling assumes the creation of a graphic representation of the business process to understand its structure, the interaction of its participants, and the sequence of acts [1,2]. This method allows visualizing the processes, discovering their weaknesses, optimizing the order of tasks, and improving the standards of works [3][4][5][6][7].…”

Balanced Functioning of Socio-Economic Systems: Regional Perspective

“…The balanced functioning of the economy, by which we mean the compliance of the results of the elements, subsystems of socio-economic systems (hereinafter referred to as SES) with their normative (planned, expected) values, is one of the key conditions for the sustainable development of administrative-territorial units, including the regional level -the subjects of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Russian Federation) (Borodina et al 2023).…”
