This brochure describes the practical experiences of the cities’ introduction and extension of the usage of sharing schemes with traditional bicycles, electric bicycles as well as with electric and hybrid cars. Numerous advantages of sharing schemes are pointed out in the brochure. Besides saving money for the individual and improving the environment, the concept paves the way for multi-modal use of transport systems since the vehicle-sharing concept excels at high flexibility due to the independency of timetables and predetermined routes. Automated sharing systems can reliably be in operation year-round, day and night. Furthermore, the user freely chooses the fastest route to his destination not being bound to bus or train lines. In other words, a vehicle-sharing system adds customer value to the whole transport chain.

Tackling Tomorrow's Traffic Challenges Today: Strategies for a Sustainable Fu...ganeshdukare428
Tackling tomorrow's traffic challenges requires proactive strategies that prioritize sustainability, efficiency, and equity. Here are some key strategies for creating a sustainable future in traffic management market :
Invest in Public Transit: Prioritize investments in public transit infrastructure, including expanding service coverage, improving frequency and reliability, and enhancing accessibility for all residents. Public transit provides an environmentally friendly alternative to private vehicle usage and helps reduce congestion on roadways.
Promote Active Transportation: Encourage walking and cycling as viable modes of transportation by investing in infrastructure such as bike lanes, pedestrian pathways, and safe crossing points. Promoting active transportation not only reduces traffic congestion but also promotes public health and reduces carbon emissions.

Urban Data Platforms are at the core of the digital transformation and the basis for data-driven solutions addressing the challenges of today’s cities and communities. An Urban Data Platform exploits modern digital technologies to bring together and integrate data flows within and across city systems and make data (re)sources accessible to participants in the cities’ ecosystem. The easy sharing of city data between city services, organizations, companies, and citizens provides many positive outcomes for society:
• can help streamline urban mobility systems
• deliver improved health and well-being outcomes
• reduce energy consumption and support the use of local low-carbon energy
• connecting city assets to enable more joined-up multi-purpose services and infrastructures
About URBAN INNO
A significantly better linkage of actors within urban innovation ecosystems (public authorities, research organizations, industry as well as end-users respectively customers and citizens) is needed for a better use of innovation potentials. Public and private sectors recognize that there is especially a significant gap in the field of participation in innovation processes from people as citizens and as users and customers. Many smart solutions, technologies and services are not used widely because of the lack of knowledge and motivation or acceptance of end-users.
URBAN INNO focuses on maximizing innovation potentials of urban ecosystems through:
- Better linking actors in innovation systems by establishing and interlinking quadruple helix clusters and networks in the partner regions; and
- Developing and implementing new participatory methods and tools to engage end-users in innovation processes with the objective to have educated and motivated users.
URBAN INNO will be implemented in small-medium sized urban ecosystems in central Europe with strong replication potential due to the big number of similar-sized cities in the EU. Quadruple-helix networks will be established and regional/urban innovation action plans developed (setup of demo centres and testbeds for industry). In parallel, new participatory methods and tools will be developed and tested in pilot projects. Participative urban environments will substantially improve their innovation performance with the established innovation environment. A transnational cooperation strategy and platform will provide all interested regions the best available participatory tools and qualified facilitators and best practice will enable transfer and exchange of urban innovation models and practices throughout central Europe.
Our project is funded by the Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE Programme that encourages cooperation on shared challenges in central Europe. With 246 million Euro of funding from the European Regional Development Fund, the programme supports institutions to work together beyond borders to improve cities and regions in Austria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

OASC Annual Summit & General Assembly, 2023
14th June 2023
2. Context
• Mobility transformation is changing the landscape of urban planning
and the management of mobility in cities. Public administrations and
policy makers need means to help them understand these new
scenarios, supporting them in making policy.
• Disruptive technologies to support policy – makers come into place,
not without generating controversy, and presenting specific challenges.
In addition, new legal, ethical and a policy frameworks including
guidelines, procedures and tools must be designed, always keeping in
mind a user-centered approach.
3. Objectives
Adoption of a Data - driven and Evidence - based Decision making in
the urban transformation field, specifically on Urban Mobility.
Principles:
✓The use of data for better decision making
✓Involving related agents, stakeholders and public servants in the policy
formulation process, capturing the vision of all stakeholders.
Participative process and the creation of a community
✓ Adopting a user-centric approach: addressing the expectations, trust and
attitude from civil servants, citizens and local stakeholders in the use of
technologies as BigData, Data analytics, simulation or Edge Computing.

6. Amsterdam use case – A bikeable city
Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, has
been growing rapidly in terms of inhabitants and
visitors; this growth leads to increased mobility
and traffic issues. The city has complex traffic
streams with massive amounts of bicycles
combined with cars and public transport. To
manage these traffic issues there is a need for
better data analysis in order to create
sustainable mobility solutions.
As cycling is one of the key mobility options in
the city, any innovation and intervention has to
take this into account. As Amsterdam wants to
continuously improve its network of bike lanes
and the bike experience of cyclists, the
municipality is keen on gaining new insights
through biking data.
Grant Agreement No. 870338 URBANITE 6
7. Amsterdam use case – A bikeable city
Objectives
▪ Improving level of comfort by managing bike "flows" in the
city and preventing bike traffic jams; the programme
promotes cycling as main transport mode mainly by:
▪ Improving level of comfort by managing bike “flows”
in the city and preventing bike traffic jams.
▪ Stimulating cycling in neighborhoods
▪ Amsterdam seeks to co-create policies with citizens and
recently adopted a “participatory paragraph” to
accompany all policies and proposals going to the city
council.
▪ Apply the city data strategy, about the storage and use
of data related to Amsterdam residents and the city in
general.
Grant Agreement No. 870338 URBANITE 7
8. Amsterdam use case – A bikeable city
Work
▪ Emphasise cycling as the smart mobility option;
can we visualise the impact on mobility and the
city if inner-city traffic would be (more) bicycle-
based?
▪ Data visualisation, integration/analysis tools, and
dashboards through which decision-makers and
policy makers gain new insights about mobility in
Amsterdam.

12. Helsinki use case – Integrating mobility data into traffic planning
Helsinki is the most populous city and a growing
capital of Finland. A particular example of these
changes is Jätkäsaari area. The shore area of
Jätkäsaari, literally meaning ‘Dockers’ Island’,
previously used for industrial and harbour
purposes, is gradually being transformed into a
district offering residential areas, workplaces
and services.
Jätkäsaari has a growing passenger and
transport harbour which is right adjacent to the
centre of Helsinki. A single main road leads
traffic flow in and out of Jätkäsaari. This road
feeds directly to the largest car commuting
junction (70.000 cars daily) from the city centre
to the western suburbs of Helsinki, creating
interference.
Grant Agreement No. 870338 URBANITE 12
13. Objectives
▪ The goal is that traffic data becomes part of the
everyday life of traffic and urban planners,
experts and officials.
▪ Increase understanding how traffic congestion
in Jätkäsaari is linked with ferry traffic in the
area and by providing a data-driven approach to
advance effective planning and traffic-
management strategies.
▪ More generally, to overcome information silos:
plenty of data is available, but it is located in
different (virtual) places; this implies the need
of seamless access to transport and mobility
data.
▪ In case of Jätkäsaari pilot, the aim is to identify
impacts of ad hoc interventions with traffic
network and/or urban planning on traffic
situation.
Grant Agreement No. 870338 URBANITE 13
Helsinki use case – Integrating mobility data into traffic planning
14. Work
▪ Data visualisation, integration/analysis tools to
increase understanding of mobility in Helsinki. In
the project, a URBANITE data platform has been
jointly developed with the City of Helsinki's project
targeting to compose a data ecosystem to mobility
data.
▪ Cooperation between urban and traffic planners
and researchers, companies and academic
researchers is promoted and their opportunities to
adopt and comprehend new, disruptive
technologies is increased.
▪ Data related to car traffic, ferry traffic and city
bikes in use.

Grant Agreement No. 870338 URBANITE 24
The metropolitan area of Messina is one of the most extended areas of the south of Italy
and the first in Sicily It counts over 620.000 citizens, whereas the city counts over 250.000
citizens It is located in the extreme north-eastern part of Sicily and is therefore the
geographically closest city to the Italian peninsula. Due to this location, it is subject to a high
flow of people, vehicles and goods that move daily from Sicily to other regions of Italy and
vice versa.
The port of Messina is one of the most
important in the Mediterranean area, both
for military and civil use, and is located in the
center of the city, in a strategic multimodal
interchange point, where naval, railway,
tramway, public and private transport lines
converge for urban, regional and
interregional transport.

Conclusions. Challenges
The development of a local (mobility) data ecosystem is a complex process, in
which challenges appear at each crucial step. These challenging steps are:
• Identify the need for data and use / development of disruptive technology
• Gain awareness of existing data
• Access existing data
• Ensure quality, cleanness, completeness, and accuracy of data
• Meet interoperability standards
32. Grant Agreement No. 870338 URBANITE 32
Conclusions. Recommendations
Design Process Priorities
• Participatory development
• Including ‘end-users’ (decision-makers) throughout the entire design process is the only way to ensure
the relevance of technical solutions.
• Start the development and implementation of disruptive technologies by identifying the problem
owner, who should be data literate and educated on the potential and limitations of technology.
• Participatory development should also include stakeholders from outside of the municipality.
• Identification of a shared mission
• A shared mission is helpful in practical matters around collaborative development, and it helps to ensure
that the technology furthers the mission of democratic institutions to protect public values including
safety, privacy, and human agency.
• Open (standards / source / process)
• Openness should be applied throughout development and in many different respects: open standards,
open source, and open processes

Conclusions. Recommendations
Design Process Priorities
• Modular and iterative development
• Modules should be able to function and serve a unique function on their own, but also be compatible
and complimentary to a larger data ecosystem.
• Modular development is supported by working iteratively and in sprints with smaller data sets.
• Visualisations and mock-ups are useful in mid-term feedback session
• Education
• Education ought to occur in multiple directions during the entire participatory development process.
• Decision-making capacity requires a deep and nuanced data literacy, the development of which is aided
by active participation in co-creation sessions alongside others with diverse multidisciplinary expertise
Supporting tools
• Tools support decision-makers not replace them
• Explainability. Models and its output can be explained in a way that “makes sense” to a human being at
an acceptable level.
34. Conclusions. Question of Trust and Confidence
Grant Agreement No. 870338 URBANITE 34
Trust about the use of disruptive technologies is a prerequisite for their application in matters of society and
governance. Trust applies on many levels in this regard and from the perspective of citizens and decision-makers
alike, for example:
• trust the data is accurate and reflective of peoples’ lived experiences;
• trust that decision-makers are knowledgeable about the nuances and limitations of the technology they are
using, and are comfortable that with using it;
• trust that decisions are made by humans (not technology);
• trust that privacy and other public values are ensured by the technical systems’ design;
• trust that the technology is open and transparent;
• trust that outputs of AI are explainable valid;
• trust that (human) decisions informed by AI outputs are explainable and valid;
• and more.
The goal is not to develop trust amongst society (about the use of disruptive tech); but rather to build
technology and protocols that merit public trust because of their openness and alignment with public values
