Abstract: Diplomsko delo se osredotoča na koncept pametnega mesta in njegovo potencialno vlogo pri izboljšanju kakovosti življenja v Banja Luki. Pametna mesta so urbanistični koncepti, ki izkoriščajo informacijsko-tehnološke inovacije za optimizacijo javnih storitev, prometa, okolja in infrastrukture, kar vodi k učinkovitejšemu, trajnostnemu in prijaznejšemu mestnemu okolju za prebivalce. V raziskovalnem delu se analizira, kako bi vpeljava koncepta pametnega mesta lahko reševala ključne izzive Banja Luke, kot so prometna preobremenjenost, onesnaženje okolja, učinkovita poraba energije in javnih virov ter krepitev gospodarskega razvoja. Cilj raziskave je predlagati konkretne ukrepe in strategije za implementacijo koncepta pametnega mesta v Banja Luki. Rezultati raziskovalnega dela ponujajo vpogled v potencialne koristi in izzive vpeljave pametnih rešitev v Banja Luki ter nudijo smernice za nadaljnje ukrepanje v smeri izboljšanja kakovosti življenja in razvoja mesta.

Abstract: Forecasting is important in many branches of logistics, including the logistics related to Tourism supply chains. With an increasing inflow of American tourists, planning and forecasting the US tourists' inflow to Slovenia have gained far more importance attention amongst scholars and practitioners. This study, therefore, was conducted to forecast the American tourists' inflow to Slovenia using one of the predictive models based on the exponential smoothing approach, namely Holt-Winters damped additive (HWDA) exponential smoothing method. The model was modified by several improvements, while the obtained results were generalized to other supply chain components. The results show that the forecasting system can predict well the observed inflow, while the methodology used to derive the model might have enriched the plethora of existing practical forecasting approaches in the tourism domain. Benchmarking demonstrates that the proposed model outperforms a competitive ARIMA model and official forecasts. The practical implications are also discussed in this paper.

Abstract: The environmental and climate crisis is gaining priority among critical human concerns; therefore, environmental knowledge and sustainable solutions play a significant role and gaining global popularity as an academic discipline. Additionally, United Nations Sustainable Development Goal no. 4 acknowledges education's role in promoting sustainable development, sustainable lifestyles, human rights, social responsibility, circular economy, and greening our economy and society. In this paper new conceptual framework that focuses on systematically analyzing environmental sustainability integration in study programs and subjects is developed. The main aim is to reflect the conceptual basis of education related to environmental sustainability topics such as sustainable development, social responsibility, circular economy, ecology, environmental protection, and greening to boost future environmental management practices in industry and services. Defining the level of integration of environmental and sustainability-related topics is divided by research field classification and study cycles (BSc, MSc, PhD). The specific added value of the developed conceptual framework is reflected by defining cross-sections and inter-and trans-disciplinary of sustainability topics integrated within specific programs and subjects. The conceptual framework was tested by assessing 1051 programs in progress in Slovenia. It was revealed that the highest share of study programs has an intermediate level of environmental sustainability with 2–3 subjects (392 study programs). These are represented mainly by integrating environmental protection, ecology, and “greening” but less with circular economy and social responsibility. Significant differences among specific study programs and study fields reflect that young intellectuals will not be equally educated and qualified for future managerial challenges. Master students gain the best insight into core sustainability and environmental topics needed for future environmental managers.

Abstract: Nenaden pojav bolezni covid-19 in razglasitev pandemije v letu 2020 je močno vplivalo na vse dejavnike gospodarstva, med njimi tudi na mednarodno izmenjavo blaga. To se je pomembno odražalo tudi v mednarodnem tovornem transportu v Sloveniji in drugih državah članicah Evropske unije (EU), kar smo raziskali v našem diplomskem delu. Zanimalo nas je, kako je mednarodni transport blaga potekal pred in kako med pandemijo covida-19. Izvedli smo raziskavo s pomočjo statističnih podatkov iz spletne platforme Eurostat, kjer smo želeli ugotoviti, za koliko in če sploh se je spremenil obseg blaga, transportiranega z mednarodnim transportom v Sloveniji in na ravni držav članic EU. Pri tem smo se osredotočili na cestni, železniški, zračni kot tudi na pomorski promet. Ugotovili smo, da pandemija ni imela samo negativnih učinkov, ampak tudi pozitivne učinke na obseg blaga, transportiranega z mednarodnim transportom, tako v Sloveniji kot tudi v drugih državah članicah EU.

Abstract: The sudden emergence of COVID-19 and the declaration of a pandemic in the year 2020 has significantly impacted all factors of the economy, including international trade of goods. International freight transport (road, rail, air, and maritime) was also affected. The research analyses the changes in the implementation of international freight transport during the COVID-19 pandemic in EU countries. The main research question was: How did the COVID-19 pandemic impact international freight transport in Slovenia and selected EU member countries? According to the results, we can see that the pandemic outbreak had a different impact on each type of transport. Some modes of transport were more negatively affected by the pandemic than others. In the case of international road freight transport, the pandemic positively affected it (both in Slovenia and at the EU level) since the volume of transported goods increased
