The 14th International Workshop on Urban Computing

摘要

The swift advancement of urbanization has resulted in the growth of numerous large cities, which have enhanced the lives of many individuals but have also created significant challenges, such as air pollution, higher energy consumption, and traffic congestion. Addressing these issues was nearly unfeasible in the past due to the intricate and ever-changing nature of urban environments. Today, however, advancements in sensing technologies and extensive computing infrastructures have generated vast amounts of big data related to urban areas, including information on human mobility, air quality, traffic patterns, and geographic data. Inspired by the potential for creating smarter cities, we developed a vision for urban computing that seeks to harness insights from diverse and extensive data collected in urban settings, using this valuable information to tackle the critical problems our cities currently encounter.
