“…Research and educational centers based on business incubators, research and educational complexes consisting of an enterprise or a research institute, a basic department and an educational organization can act as such structures. As an example of using this method in world practice, one can cite the experience of the University of Arkansas in training specialists in the field of energy audit [12]. The disadvantage of this method is the substantial financial and administrative costs of creating such centers and complexes.…”

“…Consequently, the options of significant interrelations and interdependencies considered by us in this study and displayed in Figure 1 come to the fore. First, education is production, in the form of a partnership of educational institutions, government authorities and business representatives in the training of personnel to ensure the functioning of the "smart city" and its structural components [9][10][11][12][13]. Secondly, a smart city is a smart home, involving the active participation of both producers and consumers of housing and communal services in the development of "smart" technologies [7,12,14,15].…”

Human resource development in the implementation of the concept of “smart cities”

The improvement of urban systems based on the active use of information technologies, which is necessary to achieve these goals, requires specialists with appropriate qualifications. This article uses a methodological approach to the study of human resource development from the perspective of two-way communication between producers and consumers of an innovative product. The educational, structural-industry and information technology aspects of development are considered. The results of the analysis are presented, and the methods of partnership cooperation between higher educational institutions and representatives of the business community in the construction and housing and utilities sectors are identified. The experience in the field of training and retraining specialists in construction specialties with elements of student research has been synthesized. The prospects for improving the system of personnel training in the field of housing and communal services are identified. A SWOT analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of urban modernization has been carried out. Among the weaknesses, the failure of highly qualified specialists was revealed. Among the threats is the absence of a legislative and methodological framework in many areas of housing and communal services reforming. In the annex to the concept of “smart cities”, Rohmer’s model is considered, confirming the primary role of human resources in reforming and further operating the urban infrastructure. It is shown that the success of the initiative of a smart city depends on personnel, processes and technologies.

“…Based on such preliminary studies, we developed a complete set of specific sensor prototypes, providing expressive information relevant to behavioral inference. In [16,[40][41][42] some examples on how the sensor data can be processed and elaborated to extract patterns in the behaviors of home occupants are given. The present work is an extension of a published conference paper [43] where a brief description of the sensors is given.…”

“…Moreover, during the tests, the sensors' data were logged to carry out a possible activity profile of the users in order to test the system performance. It is worth stressing that the aim of this work is not to develop and demonstrate a new behavioral analysis method, but to present a new hardware architecture conceived to collect data usable by behavioral analysis models developed elsewhere [16,[40][41][42]. These tests show the usability and convenience of data collected and demonstrate that it is possible to take advantage of the flexibility of the Wi-Fi platform while eliminating costs given by the need of additional hardware (i.e., home servers and routers, adopted in [13][14][15][16]).…”

A Plug and Play IoT Wi-Fi Smart Home System for Human Monitoring

2018

The trend toward technology ubiquity in human life is constantly increasing and the same tendency is clear in all technologies aimed at human monitoring. In this framework, several smart home system architectures have been presented in literature, realized by combining sensors, home servers, and online platforms. In this paper, a new system architecture suitable for human monitoring based on Wi-Fi connectivity is introduced. The proposed solution lowers costs and implementation burden by using the Internet connection that leans on standard home modem-routers, already present normally in the homes, and reducing the need for range extenders thanks to the long range of the Wi-Fi signal. Since the main drawback of the Wi-Fi implementation is the high energy drain, low power design strategies have been considered to provide each battery-powered sensor with a lifetime suitable for a consumer application. Moreover, in order to consider the higher consumption arising in the case of the Wi-Fi/Internet connectivity loss, dedicated operating cycles have been introduced obtaining an energy savings of up to 91%. Performance was evaluated: in order to validate the use of the system as a hardware platform for behavioral services, an activity profile of a user for two months in a real context has been extracted.
