The World is getting smarter:Cities are at the core of this trend

Smart cities: Sustainable and Connected Cities

Technical Challenges

• Scale in the largeScale in the large– Billions of devices– Petabytes of data– Billions of users

• Scale in the smallScale in the small– Power consumption– Computation, complexity, cost

Semi-Technical Challenges

• Interoperability• Evolvability• Stability, universality• Standardization• Security• Privacy• Trust

Computing Challenges

• The Cloud vs. Local Autonomy• Quantity of Information• Security of Information• Latency and (Intelligent) Routing• Mapping and Displaying Information• Ontology and Discovery• Fusion and adding value• Power (always on - to mostly off)

Smart Objects & People

• Easy Recycling• Lower Energy• Flexible working• Better Security

– Something you are– Something you

have– Something you

know– Somewhere you

are

Smart Buildings

• New Materials• Smart Energy• Smart Lighting• Smart Water• Alternative Technology

A Few Examples in the World

• Portland: Use of ITS to improve traffic light synchronisation

• Guangzhou: From a manufacturing hub to a high-tech city

• Amsterdam: The world leader in energy-saving

Portland

• Feb 2010: Wins ‘ITS America Smart City Award’ for its strategy to address critical transportation challenges

• 2009 Climate Action Plan

• CO2 emissions problem

Guangzhou

• Sustainable transportation

• IoT applications roll-out by 2013

• Green buildings (Pearl River Tower)

Amsterdam

• Many projects:– Sustainable

environment– Energy savings and

CO2 reductions– Green energy for cargo

vessels– Sustainable public

spaces and buildings– Living lab networks– Smart schools, …

EU RTD & Innovation ProgrammesRelated to the Internet

• FP7 Challenge 1 (technology driven)

• FP7 Applications Challenges (application pull)

• Future Internet PPP: Short-to-medium term R&D combining application pull and technology push

• CIP: Accelerating take-up of technologies which come out of the labs and are mature for innovation

Smart cities are ecosystems important for both the Smart cities are ecosystems important for both the Future Internet PPP and CIPFuture Internet PPP and CIP
