Designing Cognitive Cities

Abstract

The series "Studies in Systems, Decision and Control" (SSDC) covers both new developments and advances, as well as the state of the art, in the various areas of broadly perceived systems, decision making and control-quickly, up to date and with a high quality. The intent is to cover the theory, applications, and perspectives on the state of the art and future developments relevant to systems, decision making, control, complex processes and related areas, as embedded in the fields of engineering, computer science, physics, economics, social and life sciences, as well as the paradigms and methodologies behind them. The series contains monographs, textbooks, lecture notes and edited volumes in systems, decision making and control spanning the areas of Cyber-

Cidades cognitivas: Utopia tecnológica ou revolução urbana?

“…Com a disponibilização intensiva de dispositivos eletrônicos e, conse-quentemente, de substancial quantidade de informações proveniente desses dispositivos, ferramentas computacionais modernas de inteligência artificial e aprendizado de máquina podem ser usadas para identificar padrões de comportamento e de atividades e ações coletivas, de tal forma a ajustar e otimizar o uso do supersistema de infraestrutura urbana de modo autônomo e em tempo real, baseando-se naquelas informações. Assim, uma cidade pode funcionar num contexto ainda mais amplo, agora conceituada como cognitiva (Cognitive City) (Ahuja; Khosla, 2019;Portmann et al, 2018).…”

Smart Participation Design: Prescriptive Knowledge for Bottom-Up Participation

“…Accordingly, the group knows which activities are feasible and can steer their discussions and participation efforts to more successful outcomes. Additionally, gained "knowledge through making" (Tabacchi et al, 2019) can be captured and made available to provide a greater knowledge base for future participation projects to benefit from.…”

Smart systems of innovation for smart places: Challenges in deploying digital platforms for co-creation and data-intelligence

“…These refer to: (i) human intelligence, referring to aspects of inventiveness, creativity and intellectual capital of the population; (ii) artificial intelligence, provided by public infrastructure, virtual and smart environments; and (iii) collective intelligence, produced by relevant actors and institutions, relying on rules for collaboration and social capital (Komninos, 2008). It becomes evident that 'smartness' of a place is based on informational and cognitive processes, such as information collection and processing, real-time alert, evidence-based decision-making, forecasting, learning, awareness, distributed problem-solving, cocreation and collaborative innovation that take place throughout the design of innovation strategies (Komninos, 2018;D'Onofrio et al, 2019;Tabacchi et al, 2019;Komninos and Panori, 2019).…”
