Smart planning
Smart growth is an urban planning theory that promotes compact, walkable urban areas to avoid low-density sprawl and preserve open space. The key principles of smart growth include mixing land uses, increasing transportation options, developing a range of housing and jobs, and encouraging community collaboration in development decisions. Smart growth aims to achieve unique communities with a strong sense of place while promoting public health, environmental protection, and economic competitiveness through policies like infill development, affordable housing, and transit-oriented development.

Smart Urban Planning
The document outlines Modena, Italy's steps to become a smart city through urban planning. It discusses how Modena built a geographic information system (GIS) to collect and organize data on populations, buildings, traffic, schools, green spaces, and utilities. This GIS acts as a sensor to monitor the city. Officials then use the data across departments to inform decisions and ensure services meet demand. Examples shown include using demographic and infrastructure data to plan for schools, transportation, and public services. The document also discusses how other Italian local governments, provinces, and utilities utilize GIS-based solutions to improve service delivery and management.
0-knowledge fuzzing
The document discusses various fuzzing techniques including dumb fuzzing, smart fuzzing, evolutionary fuzzing, using cyclomatic complexity as a filter, detecting implicit loops with dominator trees, performing in-memory fuzzing by mutating memory locations and restoring snapshots, and comparing code coverage of good and mutated samples to determine when halting criteria is met. The speaker hopes to convey an understanding of these ideas through pictures rather than traditional presentation elements. Questions from the audience are also discussed.
Smart cities: Urban Planning Focus - Kochi - 5th sept 2015
This document discusses smart cities and urban planning in India. It begins with definitions of traditional city planning and smart city planning. It then discusses the impacts of globalization and economic changes on urbanization and city growth in India. Some key challenges discussed for Indian cities include population growth, urban sprawl, flooding, garbage, air and water pollution. The document examines trends in urbanization for India by 2030 and outlines some urban challenges around areas like transportation, infrastructure, land use, and the environment. It advocates for a shift towards more sustainable urban planning approaches focused on mobility and people rather than just transportation infrastructure expansion.
Chapter01 Introduction To Windows Server 2003
This document provides an overview of managing a Windows Server 2003 environment, including:
1. It describes the different editions of Windows Server 2003 and the roles of standalone servers, member servers, and domain controllers.
2. It explains the goals of Windows Server 2003 network administration and the concepts of workgroups and domains.
3. It provides an introduction to Active Directory, including its logical structure, domains and organizational units, trees and forests, and global catalog.
Fuzzing: The New Unit Testing
Fuzzing is a software testing technique that involves providing invalid, unexpected, or random data as inputs to a computer program to detect bugs. Coverage-guided fuzzing uses genetic algorithms to generate inputs that maximize code coverage. It is effective at finding security bugs like overflows, memory errors, and crashes. The presenter demonstrates finding 13 bugs in Boost regex in 30 minutes using libFuzzer. Fuzzing is widely used at Google to test critical software like browsers, libraries, and the Linux kernel due to its ability to find many bugs without requiring test cases.
Planning in an era of smart urbanism
Over the past three decades city infrastructure and services have increasingly become digitally networked, programmable and data-driven. Moreover, citizens now regularly use mobile spatial media to mediate their spatial behavior and urban experiences and share information via crowdsourced platforms. As a result we are ever more living in the era of smart urbanism — city systems can be operationally managed dynamically using algorithms processing urban big data, citizens can access and contribute live information about the city, and planners and policy makers can redeploy new streams of data to model and plan the city with increasing granularity. The development of smart urbanism poses opportunities and challenges for urban planning, reshaping how we come to know and govern cities, and this talk will examine these drawing on research conducted in Boston and Dublin.
Integrative Smart City Planning – Energy system modelling for the city of Evora
This document discusses energy system modeling that was done for the city of Évora, Portugal to develop integrated smart city planning. It provides an overview of the InSMART project, objectives, scope, methods and tools used, including the TIMES modeling framework. Key aspects of modeling the energy system for Évora are summarized, including representation of sectors like buildings, transport, industry and supply. Details are given on modeling the building sector through surveys and energy modeling software, and the transport sector through additional surveys. The document concludes with discussing using the TIMES model to generate sustainable energy pathways and next steps.
Site Planning and Design Principles - اساسيات تخطيط وتصميم المواقع
Site planning involves organizing land to accommodate a development program efficiently while expressing the character of the site. It considers elements like buildings, roads, walkways, transportation, parking, and landscape features. An important part of site planning is conducting a site analysis, which evaluates the environmental, program, and development constraints and opportunities of a site to inform a rational design approach. A well-executed site analysis lays the foundation for a cost-effective and environmentally sensitive project.
Genetic engineering project
A gene is the fundamental physical and functional unit of heredity that is responsible for an organism's physical and inheritable characteristics. Genetic engineering involves manipulating or altering the structure of genes to create desired traits in an organism. If genetic material from another species is added, the resulting organism is called transgenic. Genetic engineering can also remove genetic material, creating a knock out organism.
SMART Seminar: Addressing Intergenerational Equity in Climate Change Analysis
SMART Seminar: Addressing Intergenerational Equity in Climate Change AnalysisSMART Infrastructure Facility
On December 10, 2012, Senior Research Fellow Dr Mark Harrison addressed an audience of more than twenty people on intergenerational equity of climate change analysis in the latest SMART Seminar.
Dr Harrison reviewed intergenerational equity and discount rates in climate change analysis and argued that proponents of a low rate of mitigation have a “strange view of ethical issues not shared by the general public.”
He argued that it would improve policy evaluation to use traditional cost benefit analysis techniques, simplifying the debates and separating empirical and ethical issues. Dr Harrison examined myths about discounting techniques in the climate change literature, including the need to appropriately adjust for risk to assess the value of different policies.
Dr Harrison said it was extremely valuable to weigh up the total costs and benefits of policies, and that many of the major assessments of climate change probability ignored possible changes in growth rates of both production and consumption, and population.

It recommends tools like PowerPoint, Hot Potatoes, Quia, Inspiration, Kid Pix, and SMART Boards to aid with vocabulary, questioning skills, and eliminating extraneous information. For interpreting timelines and graphics, it suggests resources like US Timelines, Fact Monster, Discovery Streaming, and the Library of Congress.
