In the cause of world‐wide integration and on constant increase of the number of inhabitants in the cities that extend their territories, the urban development problems become a relevant issue. Sustainable urban development covers a number of activity fields ‐ sustainable planning of land handling, city renovation, sustainable buildings, rational power consumption, sustainable transport, distribution of pollution and shape of a city. The development of all the mentioned processes could be simplified by using information technologies that simplify and facilitate the work performed by specialists; improve its quality and results. Aims and principles of sustainable urban development, also the possibilities of usage of Internet medium - calculators, software, and decision support system ‐ are defined in the presented article.

We illustrate the use of World Wide Web technologies for the teaching of general science topics to undergraduate non-science majors. The newly developed course, Science for the 21st Century, consists of modules each presenting scientific topics of current interest and broad appeal. Network- and computer-based tools are used by instructors to: 1) present multimedia material in lectures; 2) produce and store Web-based modules; 3) communicate notices about the course. Students use computers to: 1) access and review lecture material; 2) explore information sources (located on our server or elsewhere) for term projects and homework assignments; 3) obtain information about the course and communicate with instructors. We describe our experiences with this course and formulate some general conclusions which might be of interest to others wishing to use network-based resources for teaching.

Aim.The aim is to reveal the need and relevant directions for the implementation of the concept of sustainable development in relation to the efficiency of transport and logistics activities.Methods.The methodology of research and development includes the analysis and adaptation of the experience in the areas of sustainable urban development and their transport, environmental impact of transport, planning and organizing passenger transport in smart cities, theories of utility and efficiency. In order to analyze the state of the investigated problem, modern scientific publications of Russian and foreign scientists were used.Results.We considered the modern understanding of the concepts of sustainable development and smart cities, the globalization of their use by the executive authorities in developed countries to improve the economy and quality of life. Were also indicated the main problems of the transition to sustainable development, characteristic of Russia. Various examples of the implementation of the concepts of sustainable development and smart city, the use of modern information technologies and methods for evaluating transport and logistics projects were given. The environmental consequences of using the concept of sustainable development, as well as the need to transform the land use policies in cities were indicated. The approaches to assessing the efficiency of transport and logistics systems and their development projects were considered. The directions of improving the human resourcing for sustainable development were identified.Conclusions.The main directions of succeeding in sustainable urban development and implementation of projects for the development of the transport systems were established. Recommendations were formulated to ensure the planning of sustainable development and building of a methodology to evaluate the efficiency of transportation and logistics as well as the projects for their improvement.

In the life of every major metropolis, there comes a time when it is impossible to reach new levels of development without the use of innovative technologies. They are necessary to optimize ongoing processes in the urban environment and ensure energy-sustainable urban development. The purpose of the study was to develop a model of an exploitation program designed to monitor and ensure the safe and energy efficient exploitation of buildings and assess the quality of work of managing organizations. The relevance of the study is justified, on the one hand, by the lack of a unified system of planning and quality control of building management, and, on the other hand, by the need to use information technologies as part of the Digital Economy of the Russian Federation program for successful planning of a sustainable urban environment. The object of research was the process of technical operation of buildings. The subject of the study was the study of the principles of the formation of building maintenance programs based on information technologies taking into account energy efficiency requirements. One of the significant results of the study is the developed algorithm for the formation of a building maintenance program for deciding on corrective maintenance measures. Criteria are proposed for assessing the quality of managing the safety and comfort of a building, which can be taken into account when developing voluntary national standards in the field of "green" construction.
