Over the past few years, advancements in the Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have significantly challenged the traditionally stable landscape of urban infrastructure services. The result is an increasing interest in the transitioning of cities towards so-called “smart cities” – an interest expressed both by technology vendors and public authorities.
Designing and Developing Smart Cities training course, you will gain a thorough understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with “smart cities infrastructures” as well as how these infrastructures can be managed in order to deliver desirable performance in cities. More precisely, throughout this 5-day course you will learn about the most important principles for the management of smart urban infrastructures as well as about the application of these principles to two specific sectors, namely urban transportation and urban energy systems.
The course provides the delegates with the insight into the public sector innovation which contributes to the development of smart cities, in order to create a smart city which will provide not only a high technology, but rather a place to live in harmony with the time, space and work. This training seminar will highlight the prerequisites of creating a smart and happy city.
At the end of the Designing and Developing Smart Cities training course , you will learn :
- The nature of disruptive innovations (smart technologies) in urban infrastructure systems
- State-of-the-art strategies that can be used for “smart infrastructure” solutions in cities, while effectively managing the transition from legacy infrastructures to smart systems
- Management of the transition phase from legacy infrastructure systems to smart cities by supporting innovations while avoiding early lock-in
- Understand the public sector innovation categories
- Become familiar with the Smart City paradigm
- Apprehend the role of Big Data in the development of smart cities
- Connect the emergence of Internet of Things with the creation of smart cities
- Recognize the need for intent based networking
- Prepare the organizations in public sector for the cities of the future
- Applications for the materials learned in this course, within the context of the management of “smart urban transportation systems” as well as “smart urban energy systems”
