We present an ongoing research project, namely Integrated Real-time Mobility Assistant (IRMA). IRMA is a software system that targets the personal mobility in a near future scenario, oriented to green, shared and public transports. IRMA aims to be an extensible, easy-to-implement and sustainable modular platform based on the combined use of multiple information sources (crowd, open, social, and sensor data) and on array of value propositions, each serving a class of stakeholders, which include municipality, users, transport providers. Hence, IRMA supports users in the entire lifecycle of mobility, and municipalities and transport providers in the whole cycle of mobility management. IRMA is deployed on both smartphone and web, and is built on a hierarchy of re-usable web services, that are based on SOA/EDA (Service Oriented Architecture / Event Driven Architecture).

In city governance, participation and engagement of stakeholders are a critical issue. Many researches use crowdsourcing to foster such participation and collaboration. To make sure that such support is complete, an evaluation grid shall be developed. To serve such need, we introduce a framework to assess the maturity of crowd-sourced municipality services. To show a structured example of crowd based city governance, we present CITY FEED, a system consisting of transactional and analytical modules. CITY FEED has been designed, implemented and deployed as a pilot in Pavia, Italy.

We present a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) on Cloud Computing that selected 39 papers from first tier journals and conferences in the period 2008-2012. The selective approach captures the relevant points of view on Cloud Computing, namely the overall paradigm in terms of delivery and deployment. Afterwards, we point out the technological issues about networking and data management in Cloud Computing. This SLR extends previous reviews thanks to a longer time period and a wider research sample. Cloud Computing, Literature Review, Cloud Deployment Model, Cloud Delivery Model, IT management
