Smart Mobility in der Praxis: Das Auto – unverzichtbar für den intermodalen Verkehr?
by Barbara FlüggeDie Zukunft der Städte und Ballungsräume hängt zunehmend davon ab, wie Verkehrsteilnehmer ihre unterschiedlichen Bedürfnisse koordinieren. Das Konzept der Smart Mobility bietet die Möglichkeit, die geeigneten Transportmittel für Individual- und Frachtverkehr vorausschauend, digital und intermodal abzurufen. Davon profitieren die Verkehrsteilnehmer, aber auch unser Ökosystem. Dieses Fachbuch wirft einen Blick hinter das Konzept einer durch Digitalisierung gestützten intelligenten Mobilität. Es illustriert Vorgehensweisen und Fragestellungen anhand von fiktiven wie realitätsnahen Projektierungsbeispielen in Städten und Regionen und behandelt zentrale Fragen: Wie lassen sich Mobilitätsszenarien ganzheitlich einschätzen und erfassen? Welches sind die wesentlichen Schritte, die es dabei zu berücksichtigen gilt?Das Einführungskapitel stellt das Konzept „Smart Mobility“ vor und erläutert verschiedene Projektierungsansätze sowie die Bausteine Intelligenter Mobilität (BIM). Zehn Fallbeispielen, unter anderem zum Autonomen Fahren, zu intelligenten Verkehrsknotenpunkten, zum Erlebnisraum Auto und der E-Mobilität, zeigen praxisnah, wie die Tools, Vorgehensweisen und BIM anzuwenden sind. Zahlreiche Checklisten und Abbildungen unterstreichen darüber hinaus den Praxisbezug dieses Werkes. Das Begleitbuch zu „Smart Mobility“ von Barbara Flügge, Digitalisierungsexpertin und Beraterin, richtet sich an Entscheider und Unternehmer sowie an Projektleiter und -mitarbeiter im Rahmen von Smart-City-Vorhaben. Außerdem eignet sich dieser Band ideal zur Vor- und Nachbereitung von Lehrveranstaltungen zu Themen wie Smart Cities oder Urban Systems Research.

Smart Modeling and Simulation for Complex Systems
by Quan Bai Fenghui Ren Minjie Zhang Takayuki Ito Xijin TangThis book aims to provide a description of these new Artificial Intelligence technologies and approaches to the modeling and simulation of complex systems, as well as an overview of the latest scientific efforts in this field such as the platforms and/or the software tools for smart modeling and simulating complex systems. These tasks are difficult to accomplish using traditional computational approaches due to the complex relationships of components and distributed features of resources, as well as the dynamic work environments. In order to effectively model the complex systems, intelligent technologies such as multi-agent systems and smart grids are employed to model and simulate the complex systems in the areas of ecosystem, social and economic organization, web-based grid service, transportation systems, power systems and evacuation systems.

Smart Multicore Embedded Systems
by Massimo Torquati Koen Bertels Sven Karlsson François PacullThis book provides a single-source reference to the state-of-the-art of high-level programming models and compilation tool-chains for embedded system platforms. The authors address challenges faced by programmers developing software to implement parallel applications in embedded systems, where very often they are forced to rewrite sequential programs into parallel software, taking into account all the low level features and peculiarities of the underlying platforms. Readers will benefit from these authors' approach, which takes into account both the application requirements and the platform specificities of various embedded systems from different industries. Parallel programming tool-chains are described that take as input parameters both the application and the platform model, then determine relevant transformations and mapping decisions on the concrete platform, minimizing user intervention and hiding the difficulties related to the correct and efficient use of memory hierarchy and low level code generation.

Smart Organizations and Smart Artifacts
by Beniamino Di Martino Leonardo Caporarello Marcello MartinezThis book offers a multidisciplinary strategy for finding new and more effective human-computer interaction approaches, in particular from a socio-technical perspective, that facilitate the exploration and exploitation of benefits that information technologies (IT) offer organizations. Though the relationship between IT and organizations is certainly very strong, it is also one of the greatest obstacles to securing benefits from their interaction. The participation of organizational users in the planning and design stages of IT interfaces is the main area of human-computer interaction, where a wealth of contributions are positively enriching both the academic and management discussions. Thus, a new approach for managing this relationship is needed, one in which the different stakeholders are suitably taken into account. Moreover, the outstanding success of the 2. 0 phenomenon offers an example of a relevant platform where human-computer interaction has been widely developed and exploited. Consequently, this will influence and already is influencing - the way IT and users interact with each other. The book is based on a selection of the best papers - original, double blind peer-reviewed contributions - from the annual conference of the Italian chapter of the AIS, held in Milan, Italy in December 2013.

Smart Products, Smarter Services: Strategies for Embedded Control
by Mary J. CroninWe are surrounded by products that have minds of their own. Computing power, in the form of microcontrollers, microprocessors, sensors, and data storage chips, has become so cheap that manufacturers are building connectivity and embedded intelligence into all types of consumer goods. These 'smart products' are fundamentally changing both the competitive landscape for business and the daily lives of consumers. This book analyzes the evolution of smart products to help managers understand the impact of embedded product intelligence on corporate strategy, consumer value, and industry competition. It describes four different ecosystem strategies for designing and launching smart products: the control-focused Hegemon, the standards-focused Federator, the high growth and brand-focused Charismatic Leader, and the disruptive industry Transformer. This ecosystem model is then applied to smart products in the automotive, wireless, energy, residential, and health industries. The book concludes with recommendations for successfully managing smart products and services.
