This study explores the role of deep learning technology in the sustainable development of the music production industry. This article surveys the opinions of Taiwanese music creation professionals and uses partial least squares (PLS) regression to analyze and elucidate the importance of deep learning technology in the music production industry. We found that deep learning cannot replace human creativity, but greater investment in this technology can improve the quality of music creation. In order to achieve sustainable development in the music production industry, industry participants need to awaken consumers’ awareness of music quality, actively enhance the unique value of their art, and strengthen cooperation between industries to provide a friendly environment for listeners.

The sustainability concept was introduced as a result of growing public concern about the degradation of the natural environment. Environmental movements resulted in the Brundtland report, as the general quest for combining economic development and environmental protection in favor of next generations. Within the sustainability concept, four interrelated pillars are considered important, namely, economic, environmental, social, and cultural. The upper goal of the sustainability approach is the management of natural resources in a way that contributes to human well-being. Within this framework, individuals meet their needs with respect to the quality of the environment. In order to achieve this goal, the role of education is crucial. Several declarations were developed on stressing the importance of education to increase awareness for sustainable development. The sustainable development movement advocated a shift toward more holistic educational processes where, in addition to basic sciences, individuals would be educated to adopt attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors compatible with the principles of sustainability. Within this context, educational organizations, such as universities, are to enhance students’ perceptions toward sustainable development by adopting learning programs and courses that will help individuals to recognize that their consumption habits, as reflected in their own actions, affect their current and future economic and environmental impacts.

The shuttle service in tourism depends on physical accessibility of a destination, on movement within the destination and the transport itself. In today’s world, transport is not just the act of getting to a wanted destination. Moreover, travelling by a certain vehicle can be a tourist attraction, if the transportation means is designed to arouse the feeling of joy and excitement. The purpose of the study is to define the basic determinants of transport and transport infrastructure, and also to explore the role of transport in the development of tourism. The aim is to point out the interdependence of transport and tourism, considering that the development of transport infrastructure has encouraged the development of mass tourism. The authors analyse the importance of transport infrastructure and the quality of transportation means when it comes to choosing a destination for a tourist trip. In order to evaluate the role of transport in the sustainable development of tourism, experts analyse forms of transport which are a tourist attraction by themselves, and provide an overview of certain forms of transport.

The article is devoted to the study of the role of infrastructure in the sustainable development of the economy, the investment of which makes it possible to ensure the achievement of social and environmental results along with economic ones. This type of investment has great potential in solving global problems of mankind, providing a positive impact on the economies of various countries. Mobilizing investment in infrastructure that catalyzes the improvement of environmental, social and political processes in economic systems stimulates the development of industries and often must precede this. The relevance of transformative investments is growing in the face of a lack of resources of governments of various states to address the priority problems of overcoming poverty, social inequality and reducing social tensions in this regard. Despite the fact that transformative investment is a relatively new topic, which is reflected in various discussions at the global level, the implementation of this form of investment to achieve the UN sustainable development goals in order to ensure a decent standard and quality of life for the population contributes to the creation of favorable conditions for interaction between countries.

The article defines that the global trend in the development of the world economy is the concept of balanced growth, which is based on the integration of social and environmental aspects of business entities in their economic policy and ensuring the sustainable development of economic agents on this basis. Currently, the key imperatives for the development of business entities are socially responsible management, socialization of labor relations, and greening of economic activity, which requires consideration when developing strategies and programs for the development of business entities. Strategic initiatives for the balanced development of the state and regional levels are considered. The achievements of railway transport enterprises to ensure their sustainable development, in particular in the aspect of achieving the UN sustainable development goals, are studied. It is revealed that the implementation of the principles of sustainable development in railway transport enterprises faces a number of challenges caused by long-term ignoring of urgent problems of the functioning of enterprises in the industry. The study of the current state of railway transport enterprises made it possible to identify and systematize the disproportions of their development in the context of economic, technical, social and environmental components. It details the disproportions in the functioning of railway transport enterprises and reflects their quantitative manifestations in the dynamics of the last five years. It is noted that overcoming the identified imbalances requires an integrated approach to ensuring the sustainable development of railway transport enterprises in the context of such components as economic, technical, social and environmental. It is proved that ensuring a balanced development of railway transport enterprises will ensure the development of competitive client-oriented business entities adapted to the new dynamic challenges of the global competitive market. It is stated that the directions and tools for achieving a balanced development of railway transport enterprises should be determined in terms of overcoming economic, technical, social and environmental imbalances in their functioning.

The field of innovation has been extensively researched, but less work has been done on integrated approach to innovations targeted at actualization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The goals are closely interconnected, changing one goal will result in a change in another and this has resulted on the need for holistic approach to achieving Sustainable Development (SD). No doubt there exist interrelations between the sectors and subsector addressed by the goals and targets equally. Studies have shown that sustainable development challenges require an integrated response. It is in fulfilment of the three-pillars of the SDGs and Agenda 2063 that this paper articulated a tailor-made Conceptual Integrated Innovations Model with emphasis on the role of collaborations for innovation with the view to fast-tracking the attainment of the former and latter. In the end, the Performance Indicators for an integrated innovation will be an Africa that speaks with one voice, open and aligned to eco-innovations.

AbstractThe strengthening of social cohesion, the globalization and the opening of the market to free competition, the expanding of the public – private partnership and the sustainable development are the main questions which arise today about the future of services of general interest. The current economic and financial crisis recalls that the main role of the services of general interest lies in ensuring the social and territorial cohesion. At the same time, the crisis has a significant impact on the public sector due to the pressure on public finances and it is essential to make every effort possible in order to keep providing these services and improve their quality. The upcoming accession of Romania to the European Union requires precise criteria for guaranteeing the performance and quality of public services of general interest and, in particular, the development of network industries and the link between these elements is a prerequisite for facilitating the integration, increasing citizens welfare and achieving in a short time the community rules and standards. The role of services of general interest is the sustainable development of a territory and their contribution in maintaining the balance between environment and society, exploiting the available resources in a particular plan, fighting against social exclusion and isolation. Overall, the man has an important role, he can transform the environment, because he is considered an integral part thereof, subject only to maintaining the balance between himself and the other components of the environment; at the same time, he must accept his role as a stabilizing factor in his relationship with nature. Services of general interest in a region should positively influence the life of people in order to achieve the long-term development vision by transforming the region’s functioning of institutions. Sustainable development means recognizing that economy, environment and social welfare are interdependent namely that affecting the environment in terms of quality will sooner or later have a negative influence on economic development and the quality of life of each one of us. The human component is an essential urban mobility, and every type of public service must be carried out in a planned system in terms of territory. A responsible demographic capable of long-term strategies for rational use of resources, ensures sustainability planning. Sustainability does not imply an imposed proactive strategy. If an area has resources, a vigorous and enterprising demographic system, fair and profitable exchanges with the outside, it is sustainable, thus it can evolve without outside intervention.
