Abstract

Transportation is a field that has potential for reducing emission and pollution through technological and social innovation. Today we face the problem of sustainable multi-modal transportation. This chapter presents a way to approach the problem by increasing the user’s sustainability awareness using an adaptive application. The proposed application is strongly related to a CRM system since today CRM aims at increasing consumption of customers with the goal of profit maximization without integrating sustainability into CRM strategies, processes and systems. The solution is built on top of a framework taking into account a set of requirements for the New Generation of Adaptive Applications. These requirements originate both at the field of Adaptive Hypermedia and the field of Business Informatics.
