Abstract
Basic elements and concepts of information systems are presented. The report also deals with the information system and its underlying theory and design. Examples of the application of information systems for solving primarily environmental problems are presented. Aspects of measuring pollution prevention progress are discussed. The application of system analysis and the definitions of system inputs and outputs are analyzed. Types of pollution prevention measurement and the usage of normalization as well as financial and management issues are briefly addressed. A framework for an industrial production and waste generation tracking system is outlined. A model of the system is presented and parameters are precisely defined. A cost analysis of the system is carried out and examples of cost analyses suggested for selection of industrial technologies are discussed.
