Description:Humanity was once dispersed and dislocated on a planet that used to be so mysterious and unfamiliar, but through ingenuity and technological prowess we have created a globalized society integrated by ubikquitous infrastructures that now finds itself on the precipice of concurrent crises. Cities have become the stage of modernity as the realities of resource scarcity, climate change, stiff global competition and technologically-led austerity are forcing them (us) to adapt to ever changing, economic, environmental and socio-political conditions. IT companies, politicians and technologists claim they have the exact remedy to urban ills: the Smart City. For them, smart sensors and sophisticated algorithm software can be used to optimize urban space and make our cities more efficient, environmentally sustainable, economically attractive and socially inclusive. Seeing as information and communications technologies have disrupted so many other industries in the last 20 years, can it actually be used to solve age-old urban problems and take us into the future? Does the Smart City illuminate the intricate complexities of urban life, the reciprocities between cities and their hinterlands, and empower individuals and communities? Or, are there elements of urbanity and the human condition that lie beyond the purview of data collection alone?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
