Smart City
A theme very popular in FP7...
A city is smart if it can use the collective intelligence of its citizens, business, visitors
Smart technologies are the technologies invisible as such, but able to provide “understandable” serices to people.
Horizon 2020
• All chages
• New perspectives, new strategies
• Smart Cities has disappeared as specific research line
• The closest is: Europe in a changing world - inclusive, innovative and reflective Societies
• But other (tiny) possibilities in LEIT, and
• Urban and Regional programs
The 3 Main Pillars of H2020
(LEIT)
Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies
Excellence in Science
Industrial Leadership
Societal Challenges
Societal Challenges Fundings
Social Sciences and Humanties (SSH)
Positioning Smart Cities / Gov in Horizon 2020
• RESEARCH and INNOVATION
• Main Pillar/Priority: Societal Challenges
• Europe in a changing world - inclusive, innovative and reflective Societies
• New Forms of Innovation - H2020-INSO-201
• Topic: ICT-enabled open government
• Total Call Budget: €23,500,000

INSO-1-2014
Context
take-up of new technologies, such as social media and mobile technologies, that leads to increased connectivity
Availability of open data and open services, in an open government setting support the collaborative forms of service design and delivery and they increase transparency
Cont’d
Personalised public services, delivered or enabled by IC T, more pro-active.
• Empowered citizens
• participate in the design, creation, selection and delivery of some of the public services
• flexible and personalised interactions with public administrations
• M-Gov: transition from stationary to mobile
Transparency
• Open data and information
• monitoring of the public sector and its performance
• Transparency helps to increase accountability and trust in administrations
Innovation Actions – Pilots Pilot1 - Personalised and mobile public services
• new, smart and mobile public services, with Intelligent and innovative use of large volumes of publicly available data
• create or co-produce new public services, using open services and enabling any actors
• Pro-active and personalised citizen-centric modular public service applications
• support the organisational and back-office implications, including privacy
Pilot2 - Transparency
• pilot tools to increase the transparency impact of IC T-based technology platforms of the public sector
• Open data tu support monitoring, enhancing accountability and fighting corruption
Sought contribution from the EU of between EUR 1 and 3 million
INSO-1 Expected Impact
Actions should include an assessment of
• Adopted approaches to deliver the public administrations' goals
• effectiveness of the proposed solutions
• social and economic impact
provide feedback as
• a set of recommendations for future use of these approaches to deliver more effective public administration.
Impact (con’t)
• Stimulating the creation, delivery and use of new services
• Using a variety of devices, utilising new web technologies, coupled with open public data
• More personalised public services that better suit the needs of users
• Reducing the administrative burden of citizens and businesses (e.g. collecting information from citizens only once)
• Increased transparency and trust in public administrations
Smart Cities in Challeng 2 ‘Industrial Leadrship-LEIT’
ICT 11 – 2014: FIRE+ (Future Internet Research & Experimentation)
• Positive impact on application areas other than Future Internet, for example Societal Challenges and in particular Smart Cities enabled, via large-scale experimentation involving users.
LEIT cont’
ICT Cross-Cutting Activities
ICT 30 – 2015: Internet of Things and Platforms for Connected Smart Objects
• Reference implementations including proof-of-concept... Smart homes, workplaces, public spaces, context aware commercial environments and smart cities are targeted and potential use scenarios include health, energy, mobility and commercial services…
EUJ4 – EU-Japan Testbeds
• Developing and implementing Internet of Things and Smart ICT open federated architectures for experimentation …
• The solutions under experimentation should preferably address public services or applications for health, elderly, smart cities, smart buildings, energy management and should explore emerging concept, such as participatory sensing. They should also investigate the related interoperability, privacy and security issues.
Towards an EU Urban Agenda • Evolution of inter-regional programs in the DG
Regional and Urban Policy (Post INTERREG)
• Character of the European city of the future
CITIES of Tomorrow
“development of our cities will determine the future economic, social and territorial development of the European Union.”
Areas of interest
Environment, Energy, Transport, Information, Society, Climate Action, Education, Culture,...

A Proposal from CNR and Univ Politecnica ella Marche
Our Vision
• Citizens are “living sensors” constantly moving on the territory
• There is a great potentiality of participation and knowledge creation
• Knowledge crowdsourcing can be applied to several areas. Such as:
Deep and extensive inclusion of people in the management of Cities
Social Innovation and Collaborative Service Design
Transparency and Social Monitoring of PA activities
Our Proposal
Objective - An open, participative platform for:
• Gathering the collective knowledge that each user can share with the community and the PA
• IM (SMS, Tweet, ...) as the central communication method with a unique access point (involves the 90% of people)
• Organise the collected knowledge and deliver it to the interested public authorities, citizens assoc, media (using semantic technology)
Semantic Tweeter
Our Experience • Semantic Technologies
– Ontologies
– Semantic analysis of texts (e.g., brief messages)
– Semantic profiling of organizations (their interests, their role and duties, etc.)
– Semantic routing: push the right info to tjhe right people in the right moment
• Previous Projects and experience – eParticipation
– Cultural Heritage and Tourism
– Social platforms for Disaster and Emergency Mgt
– BIVEE: Business Innovation Social Innovation
Objectives
City networks based on massive users participation. Aimed at:
• Improve the quality of services
• Smarter development model, Social Design
• Establishing Social Innovation ecosystems
• Users’ validation of: – innovative services, business models, processes and
value networks
• Reinforcing the role of the user/citizen in the innovation lifecycle, facilitating technological and also social innovation
Collective Awareness Platforms
• CAPS. The European Call planned after Summer
• Role of Semantic Technologies
• High Mobile Computing for ubiquitous access
• CitizEngine
• Opinion harvesting and sentiment analysis
• Emerging communities
• Advanced knowledge management and decision systems
