Urban Informatics for Smart Cities

Assignment 1
Urban Informatics for Smart Cities
For this assignment, students need to write a report to review the applications of urban informatics in smart cities using one specific city/region/country as example.
The subject of Urban Informatics is focused on urban computing and urban sensing. Therefore, your discussion should cover both urban computing and urban sensing.
Smart city has several dimensions, including smart mobility, smart environment, smart people, smart living, smart economy and smart governance. Your discussion should include one or more dimensions.
One specific example for this report: Urban Informatics for Smart City: A Case Study of Hong Kong. Note: you may use other titles that can better describe your discussion in the report.
The report should cover the following topics:
What are the specific technologies, methods OR models that have been used in the chosen city/region/country for urban computing AND urban sensing?
How can these existing technologies, methods OR models be used to promote the development of smart city?
In terms of technologies, methods OR models for urban computing AND urban sensing, what else would you want to suggest for the chosen city/region/country?
How can these suggested technologies, methods OR models be used to promote the development of smart city?
Students are suggested to review relevant references (e.g., papers and books) before writing the report.
