The old world of doing business, communication to each other and gaining information on all spheres of life has fundamental changed. To define it abstract, the world sustains a new layer on nearly everything, this layer can be called internet, but what fits better is the item of global data streams.
In order to refer to the content of Module 1, the three dimension of sustainability
- the economic,
- the ecological and
- the social one
gets affected by the rapidly ongoing process of connection and networking between clients, providers and backbones. This developed may result in good outcomes or not.
The work of this case study will examine this development critically and will show its current global progress and local impact, as well as the potential future prospects.
