    Introduction
    Tiwari, P ; Parikh, K ; Tiwari, P ; Parikh, K (Palgrave Macmillan, 2023-05-11)
    This is a collection of essays in honour of Professor Jyoti K. Parikh. Chapters in this book are written by prominent academics and practitioners who have had a professional connection with Professor Parikh during her long and distinguished career. The book engages with different dimensions of sustainable development and growth and presents a scholarly debate that is relevant to policy and research. The definition of sustainability has evolved considerably. An early definition of sustainable development was presented in the Brundtland Report in 1987, which defined sustainable development as the “development that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”.

    Are PPP Arrangements Different in Green Infrastructure Sectors? an Exploratory Analysis of Indian PPP Projects
    Tirumala, RD ; Tiwari, P ; Tiwari, P ; Parikh, K (Palgrave Macmillan, 2023)
    OECD estimates that global infrastructure investment of USD 95 trillion is needed between 2016 and 2030, even if no further action is taken on climate change. India committed to reducing its emissions by 33% to 35% from 2005 levels to fight back against climate change. This calls for accelerated investments in green infrastructure projects, with more capital expected to come from the private sector. With limited budgets and resources, governments and their agencies are often struggling to meet the demands of infrastructure service delivery. Public–Private Partnership (PPP) arrangements are perceived as compelling alternatives to bridge this infrastructure gap. An exploratory comparison of PPP projects from India indicates that features of green infrastructure projects differ substantially from those of other infrastructure sectors. Green sector PPP projects have smaller project sizes, are predominantly implemented at the state and local level, have modalities that indicate greater risk transfer to the private sector, and are expected to be financially freestanding. This research provides a pathway to re-look at the design of green sector PPP projects to match the business expectations of the private sector and augment the institutional capacities of the project proponents.

    Use of an Object-Oriented System for Optimizing Life Cycle Embodied Energy and Life Cycle Material Cost of Shopping Centres
    Weththasinghe, K ; Stephan, A ; Francis, V ; Tiwari, P ; Littlewood, J ; Howlett, RJ ; Capozzoli, A ; Jain, LC (Springer London, 2019)
    Shopping centres are an integral part and a critical component of urban cities in most economies. Typically, the shorter refurbishment cycle and frequent tenant replacements in shopping centres cause excessive use of building materials over its service life. This drastic use of resources, consequently, increase life cycle embodied energy (LCEE) and life cycle material cost (LCMC) of shopping centres. Therefore, careful selection of materials is vital to reduce the negative environmental impacts and material costs. Current research on the implications of material choices on LCEE and LCMC of shopping centres are insubstantial and decisions makers are left with limited information to make better selections. Therefore, selection of energy efficient, cost-effective and environmentally responsive materials and assemblies has been a critical process for the professionals who are involved in decision-making. This paper proposes the use of object-oriented programming (OOP) to develop a mathematical model to develop combinations of building assemblies with minimum LCEE and LCMC of shopping centres through material selection. The model is based for sub-regional shopping centres in Australia, yet can be applied for any similar property type with modifications to databases and model architecture. However, scope of this paper is limited to the development of model architecture with detailed explanations on databases and computing core development. Even though, the detailed presentation of development of OOP structure pro-vides proper insight to the mathematical core for future application.
