A brief talk on smart cities or smart citizens, which is the future?
For more see http://nbtmv.blogspot.com/2016/03/smart-cities-or-smart-citizens-which-is.html
Various cities around the world are taking that connectivity to the next level. They’re addressing some long-standing development issues by examining the potential of smart cities. In fact, estimates are that more than $41 trillion will be invested in the Internet of Things (IoT) tools and platforms to modernize cities around the world.
Smart cities are at the forefront of the next wave of the Internet of Things. The goals are to streamline communication and improve the lives of citizens. And save a little money along the way.
Presentation made at the International Conference on Smart Data, Smart Cities and Smart Governance organised from 3rd to 5th October, 2019 at CEPT University, Ahmedabad.
Smart Cities Market, by Component (Hardware, Software, and Services), by Application (smart Security, Smart Building, Smart Transportation, Smart Governance, Smart Energy, Smart Healthcare, Smart Water Network System, and Smart Education), and by Geography (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America, Middle East & Africa) - Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2019 - 2027

This presentation forecasts how urban planning and technology is shaping our cities through smart city initiatives. Ultimate objective is to make people happy and provide impactful experiences for people living in cities and solving cities challenges. Technology is only an enabler but people come first. These initiatives should be driven by outcomes and what cities want to achieve and become.
This presentation offers a brief overview on the Smart Cities topic, providing some data and some useful insights about why new kind of cities are needed and at the same time presenting some trends that boost the emergence of new urban paradigms.

Smart city can be understood as a city IT project. But City IT is quite different from office IT. This slide explains difference between City and Office IT and shows ways to build a smart city successfully based on experiences from Korea and Seoul in particular.
Smart city simply means the use of information technology(IT) at the city level, which was first applied to the desk in 1980s and then expanded to the office or the home and the building in that order. Smart city enables citizen to make the right decision and act like an expert by moving intelligence from human to city structure. Smart city has four characteristics; self-orarnizing city, generative city, citizen-centric city, and realtime city. In order to succeed in building smart city, emphasis should be put on the city platform. Without a city-wide platform, it is impossible to combine data from different sources and to create smart services. This slide explains what is smart city, how to start smart city, and what benefits smart city will accompany.

Internet of Things (IoT) - We Are at the Tip of An IcebergDr. Mazlan Abbas
You are likely benefitting from The Internet of Things (IoT) today, whether or not you’re familiar with the term. If your phone automatically connects to your car radio, or if you have a smartwatch counting your steps, congratulations! You have adopted one small piece of a very large IoT pie, even if you haven't adopted the name yet.
IoT may sound like a business buzzword, but in reality, it’s a real technological revolution that will impact everything we do. It's the next IT Tsunami of new possibility that is destined to change the face of technology, as we know it. IoT is the interconnectivity between things using wireless communication technology (each with their own unique identifiers) to connect objects, locations, animals, or people to the Internet, thus allowing for the direct transmission of and seamless sharing of data.
IoT represents a massive wave of technical innovation. Highly valuable companies will be built and new ecosystems will emerge from bridging the offline world with the online into one gigantic new network. Our limited understanding of the possibilities hinders our ability to see future applications for any new technology. Mainstream adoption of desktop computers and the Internet didn’t take hold until they became affordable and usable. When that occurred, fantastic and creative new innovation ensued. We are on the cusp of that tipping point with the Internet of Things.
IoT matters because it will create new industries, new companies, new jobs, and new economic growth. It will transform existing segments of our economy: retail, farming, industrial, logistics, cities, and the environment. It will turn your smartphone into the command center for the both digital and physical objects in your life. You will live and work smarter, not harder – and what we are seeing now is only the tip of the iceberg.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Editor's Notes
Internet of Things (IoT) refers to “things” (which could be anything from living beings to inanimate objects) that connect to the Internet to “communicate” and “act” -- often autonomously.
Typical features of IoT: (1) sensor (to detect or measure), (2) processor (to compute, perform logic), (3) wireless communication (send and receive data), (4) actuator (do something in response to conditions or remote commands). Typically, an IoT object always has a “sensor” but may not always have an “actuator”.
Technological developments that spur IoT: (1) ability to add inexpensive sensors and communication capabilities to all types of devices; (2) adoption of IPv6, which can support unique addresses for billions of devices; and (3) ubiquitous nature of Internet connectivity via digital communication channels such as WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G/4G LTE cellular, satellite, and wired networks.
Sensors in IoT generate lots of data and the analysis of this data generates the “value” -- whether it’s thermostats that learn or personal health monitors that analyze data and provide feedback for you to manage your health
IoT naturally leads to “Big Data” and the two go hand-in-hand -- so the issues of “Big Data” apply here.
