Abstract

An environmental information system with distributed database is proposed. In this system, concerned groups manage the servers offering environmental product information relevant to their activities. All of the servers are connected in a network. The collection of the distributed environmental product information is automated by a searching software program. An inverse manufacturing environmental product information system and an LCA system called FusionNet LCA are developed as examples of environmental information systems with a distributed database. The development of these systems demonstrates that it is in fact possible to develop an environmental information system with a distributed database.
