Practice Session: Digitalization in Smart Cities with ADOxx
University of Vienna
The term Smart City describes a concept that is increasingly gaining the interest of city administrations, as more than 150 cities worldwide have formulated a strategy for becoming a Smart City. Nevertheless, a variety of definitions is used to describe different application areas within such cities and a widely accepted understanding of the concept has yet to be established. Commonly, sub-domains like Smart Mobility, Smart Environment, or Smart Governance are used to categorize present and potential Smart City applications. In the introduction session, we propose and discuss an alternative approach for the categorization of Smart City applications by grouping them into environment-related optimizations and professionrelated disruptions. After showcasing that the majority of present Smart City solutions can be assigned to the environment-related optimization category, a Drone Tour Guide case will be presented as an example of a profession-related disruption in the Smart City context. In the following practice sessions, we will primarly focus on the aspects of the city infrastructure and the utilities. This will be a key element in realizing services such as smart parking, mobility, or the monitoring of the environment in terms of real-time alerts and safety management.
In this context, three buildings blocks have been designed to familiarize the participants with modelling concepts, model querying and model processing in an independent application domain: (1) How to model concepts of a Smart City?, (2) How to analyze Smart City models using query techniques?, (3) How to process Smart City models using simulation?
