The document summarizes the results of Roland Berger's global study on smart city strategies. It finds that while most cities have room for improvement in their smart city strategies, the top-scoring strategies come from Vienna, Chicago, and Singapore and excel in strategic planning, infrastructure, and action fields. It identifies best practices such as actively involving stakeholders, avoiding isolated solutions, and establishing coordination bodies. The document concludes by recommending 10 key points for cities to address when developing smart city strategies, such as reevaluating the city's role, encouraging private sector contributions, and ensuring data security.
The Black & Veatch 2017 Strategic Directions: Smart City/Smart Utility Report investigates the progress made by communities and utilities as they continue their evolution toward smarter infrastructure. Around the globe, cities and utilities are beginning to see tangible results from preliminary efforts and are gaining confidence in what a smart city can be.
Municipalities are starting to understand the power of data and how it can foster and support master planning, and how a roadmap can define, drive and ultimately enable smart city initiatives. Utilities are working to integrate advanced technologies—such as evolving to accommodate distributed energy resources (DER) and improving network connectivity—to determine a successful path forward in a changing landscape.
Most importantly, communities and utilities are coming to the understanding that proactive data management—from collection to visualization and analytics—is critical to the smart city movement because it will allow them to prioritize efforts, commit funding and allocate resources in a tactical manner.
The 2017 Strategic Directions: Smart City/Smart Utility Report also discusses potential hurdles that may impede success. For example, key gaps remain in the areas of planning, funding and technology through data management that will force governments and utility providers to revisit how they approach these efforts.

Report Background
The annual Black & Veatch 2017 Strategic Directions: Smart City/Smart Utility Report is a compilation of data and analysis from an industrywide survey. This year’s survey was conducted online from 19 October 2016 through 4 November 2016. A total of 741 qualified utility, municipal, commercial and community stakeholders completed a majority of the survey. Because the survey was administered online, the amount of self-selection bias is unknown, therefore, no estimates of sampling error have been calculated.

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.

Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
