Abstract:
Local ICT firms can play an important role in creation of innovations which could support a smart city concept realization in a city. The topic of the paper is to present details of local ICT firms' perspective on cooperation with city government for production of innovations important in a smart city concept realization. There is a research gap in up-to-date studies concerning such a topic. Motivation of the author in preparing the paper was to make a step forward to fill this research gap through realizing the article’s main objective which was to answer the following question: ‘What is the perspective of local ICT firms and what are their expectations in the mentioned cooperation to result in production of innovations useful for the city?’ An additional question was ‘What is the attitude of local ICT firms towards inviting big international leaders in smart city projects for cooperation in the ICT industry?’ Critical research of the paper is first of all of empirical and qualitative nature. A review of the current international literature was of preliminary nature. The review was carried out in respect of a smart sustainable city, ICT innovations and public management, ICT innovations and their sustainability. The study concentrated on the case of the Polish city of Częstochowa. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with managers of six ICT local firms or units located in Częstochowa. The findings of the paper include a set of expectations of local ICT firms useful for city governments in planning cooperation with ICT firms for innovations. In analyzing the perspective of local ICT firms an important element was their attitude towards inviting big international leaders in the ICT industry in smart city for cooperation by the city government. The boundaries of the paper of the above nature limited its scope to the perspective of local ICT firms leaving outside e.g. the analysis of the city government perspective. In the future, the studies should be developed on: creating a comprehensive model of strategic planning of the cooperation between city government and ICT firms for Smart City sustainable innovations.

Abstract:
The level of urbanization which may impact on urban problems could be resolved through city development enabled and supported by the advanced ICT to build the city smart. To develop the city smart, the readiness of smart cities enablers should be assessed. The study was conducted based on pilot study through a survey on the smart city readiness. The analysis of smart city readiness in Yogyakarta showed that the evaluation of smart city projects implemented partially; only operational and asset optimization, and access to comprehensive device management implemented over 50%. Smart city readiness not only be measured by technological aspect but also need to be measured as non-technological aspects. Thus, measurement of readiness smart city can be more comprehensive.

Abstract:
This paper aims to examine the determinants of smart-city commitment across individuals from Bahía Blanca, Argentina. Literature has identified different factors explaining citizens’ commitment to smart cities, such as education, age, labor condition, and other more subjective factors, such as trust and awareness about the smart-city concept. A mediator factor of smart commitment is e-readiness or digital readiness, that is, the level of preparedness to properly exploit internet opportunities such as e-government and e-commerce. To achieve this goal, we used a survey conducted on 97 citizens (followers of the Moderniza Bahía Facebook) from the city of Bahía Blanca, Argentina. By estimating a structural equation model, we found that higher levels of ICT use are associated with higher levels of smart-city commitment and that higher awareness of the smart-city concept is related to higher levels of smart-city commitment. Sociodemographic factors such as age and labor condition also explain ICT use.

Abstract:
Smarty city is a current topic, growing very fast in the last years. This concept is linked as a winning strategy to solve some major problems of big cities, like pollution, traffic jams, energy consumption, etc. Smart city is the next level, a more complex concept of the much restrictive green city, being an extension of this one, involving a better urban zone, a smaller environmental footprint, a higher penetration of ICT in the city life. A very important component of a smart city is the urban mobility, a smart mobility in a smart city. The aim of the paper is the presentation of the first step in this direction, because a smart mobility involve a smart signalization first. To reduce the traffic jam in an cross junction, an adaptive signal master plan of the intersection are used, with the help of a dedicated software.

Abstract:
Purpose – Contemporary debate is increasingly focused on ICT and sustainability, especially in relation to the modern configuration of urban and metropolitan areas in the so-called smartization process. The purpose of this paper is to observe the connections between smart city features as conceptualized in the framework proposed by Giffinger et al. (2007) and new technologies as tools, and sustainability as the goal. Design/methodology/approach – The connections are identified through a content analysis performed using NVivo on official reports issued by organizations, known as industry players within smart city projects, listed in the Navigant Research Report 2013. Findings – The results frame ICT and sustainability as “across-the-board elements” because they connect with all of the services provided to communities in a smart city and play a key role in smart city planning. Specifically, sustainability and ICT can be seen as tools to enable the smartization process. Research limitations/implications – An all-in-one perspective emerges by embedding sustainability and ICT in smart interventions; further research could be conduct through direct interviews to city managers and industry players in order to understand their attitude towards the development of smart city projects. Practical implications – Potential approaches emerging from this research are useful to city managers or large corporations partnering with local agencies in order to increase the opportunities for the long-term success of smart projects. Originality/value – The results of this paper delineate a new research path looking at the development of new models that integrate drivers, ICT, and sustainability in an all-in-one perspective and new indicators for the evaluation of the interventions.

Abstract:
This paper introduces a new dimension to conceptualising smart cities – a cross-border approach for heterogeneous cities. There is a mutual agreement between smart city scholars that cities are smart when they reduce silos and enable better flow of data between city functions and services. This paper focuses on the cross-border aspect of smart cities and claims that ICT in cities do not automatically lead to ubiquitous services across the cities. This can even lead to more fragmentation compared to pre-ICT area. A new model for joint digital services in the cross-border cities – the Urban Operating System – is proposed and will be evaluated in context of two Northern European cities with high commuting frequency: Helsinki and Tallinn.

Abstract:
Abstract (English) Cities nowadays face complex challenges to meet objectives regarding socio-economic development and quality of life. The concept of "smart city" is a response to these challenges. Although common practices are being developed all over the world, different priorities are defined and different architectures are followed. In this master thesis I focuses on the applied architecture of Riverside's case study, through a progression model that underline the main steps that moves the city from a situation of crisis, to be appointed "Intelligent Community" of the 2012 by Intelligent Community Forum. I discuss the problem of integration among the physical, institutional and digital dimension of smart cities and the "bridges" that connect these three spatialities. Riverside's progression model takes as a reference a comprehensive framework made unifying the keys component of the three most quoted framework in this field: a technology-oriented vision (strongly promoted by IBM [Dirks et al. 2009]), an approach-oriented one [Schaffers et al. 2011] that is sponsored by many initiatives within the European Commission, and a purely service-oriented one [Giffinger et al. 2007][Toppeta, 2010].

Abstract:
Syftet med denna undersökning är att med hjälp av två vetenskapliga metoder, kvalitativa intervjuer och användardagböcker ta reda på hur användares mobila brukarvanor ser ut och vilka typer av tjänster kan de ligga till grund för baserat på ett Smart city-perspektiv. Arbetet kommer även att analysera och utveckla metodiken för fortsatta studier inom ämnet. Mobilen har under de senaste åren utvecklats till att bli en enhet där dess ursprungliga telefonfunktioner blivit sekundära egenskaper. Dess främsta ändamål är fortfarande för att kommunicera med andra, men i första hand genom andra typer av tjänster. Man kan idag även se hur utvecklingen går från ett bruk av digitala tjänster där varje enhet har specifika syften, till ett bruk där enheter samarbetar och delar ett gemensamt syfte. I och med att vårt bruk, och våra vanor, av dessa enheter förändras, så förändras även naturen hos tjänsterna de tillhandahåller. Man kan se en utveckling mot, och en efterfrågan för, tjänster som genom att utnyttja ny teknologi kan beskrivas bryta gränsen mellan det digitala och den fysiska verkligheten. Vilket ur ett Smart City-perspektiv kan ha stor potential inom flera områden av samhälls- och verksamhetsutveckling. Det går även att se att synen på hur vi konsumerar digitala tjänster förändras. Från att ha haft en väldigt enhetsfokuserad syn, där varje enhet har specifika ändamål, går vi mot ett bruk av tjänster där enheten i sig inte är viktig. Många tjänster finns idag på flera enheter, och enheterna fungerar mer som ett samarbetande ekosystem än enskilda enheter med egna syften. Enheterna delar snarare ett gemensamt syfte, att agera fönster mot internet.
The purpose of this study is to find out how mobile user habits can provide a basis for applications and services based on a Smart City perspective, this by using two scientific methods, interviews and user diaries. The study will also analyze and develop the method for further studies in this subject. The cell phone has in recent years evolved into a unit where the original phone functions and features have become secondary. Even though its main purpose is still to communicate with others, it’s now done primarily through other types of services. Today the development goes from a use of digital services where each unit has a specific purpose, to a practise where they work together and share a common purpose. As a result of the fact that our use and our habits of these devices are changing, the nature of the services provided by these devices are also changing. Due to this, there is an ongoing evolution towards, and a demand for, new services that can take advantage of new technologies to dissolve the border between the digital and the physical reality. Which, from a Smart City perspective, could have great potential in several areas of social and organizational development. One can also se that the way we consume digital services is changing. We have gone from having a device centerd focus, were every unit has a specific purpose to a serviced centerd focus, were the units work as a collaborative ecosystem. These units share a collective pupose, to act as a window towards the internet.

Abstract:
Global urbanisation trends and pressing issues around sustainability pose great challenges for cities. The smart city concept has been developed as a strategy for working with cities as they become systematically more complex through interconnected frameworks, and increasingly rely on the use of Information and Communication Technology to meet the needs of their citizens. This thesis explores the concept of smart cities as a potential urban construct that can address the social and ecological sustainability challenges which society faces. Smart cities are defined as cities where investments in human and social capital, and traditional and modern communication infrastructure fuel sustainable economic growth and a high quality of life, with a wise management of natural resources, through participatory governance. Through structured interviews with smart city practitioners and sustainability experts, the strengths and limitations of the smart city concept are identified and organised through the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD). Then, a Strategic Sustainable Development (SSD) approach is applied as a method to maximise the benefits of the concept, and to mitigate any identified limitations. This thesis recommends a planning guide, informed by an SSD approach, to help smart cities move strategically towards their smart city vision and also move society towards sustainability.
Den praktiska tillämpningen av detta projekt riktar sig till stadsplanerare som idag använder sig av the smart city concept men också till stadsplanerare som vill börja arbeta aktivt med att göra sina städer mer hållbara genom att minska resursanvändningen och optimera stadsaktiviteter. Det blir alltmer uppenbart att stora förändringar måste ske i världen idag för att förbättra utsikterna för vår framtid och framtiden för kommande generationer. Ett effektivt sätt att angripa en stor bidragande orsak till både miljöproblem och sociala problem är att rikta fokus mot utvecklingen av städer och försöka bedriva utvecklingen på ett mer långsiktigt hållbart sätt.Detta projekt analyserar the smart city concept, förstärker dess hållbara påverkan genom rekommendationer och tillhandahåller stadsplanerare med en strategisk beslutsprocess för hållbara smarta städer som guidar planerare igenom processen och stödjer dem i deras beslut i syfte att optimera den hållbara utvecklingen av städer.

Abstract:
Due to urbanization and the population of cities producing up to 75% of emission, Smart City concepts, looking at sustainability and more efficiency within the city, with the help of IoT and ICT based technology, are seen as an opportunity to act future-oriented, today. Construction and transportation are seen as the main contributors on the way of change from energy consumption to energy production. Enhancing infrastructure to improve the quality of all sorts of public transportation is thus of utter importance to governance, interested in Smart City concepts. Looking at the literature, waterborne transportation has not received much scientific attention in the context of being implemented into Smart City initiatives. This systematic literature research draws logical conclusions from the researched literature. The research concludes with a research agenda for future research to deepen the knowledge in the explanatory field of waterborne transportation making use of Smart City technologies. The main findings of this thesis are: First, waterborne transportation poses a threat to the environment and impacts sustainability of water bodies, as well as the environment surrounding them. Second, Smart City technologies can successfully be implemented in waterborne transportation when carefully planned. Barriers for the implementation of Smart City concepts can be lack of knowledge, investment, data security and readiness of infrastructure. These can be overcome through the help of collaboration and knowledge sharing among the involved stakeholders. Third, the image of the industry can be shifted, as well as its direct impact and the indirect use of waterborne transportation can be made more sustainable and ecosystem friendly. This transition attracts further customers, who otherwise were not willing to use waterborne transportation. In order to make waterborne transportation more sustainable and part of the Smart City movement, knowledge needs to be deepened and awareness about the topic needs to be spread. Its use of Smart City technologies needs to be further investigated, looking at specific types and tailored solutions for them, as well as how beneficial such an investment can be for governments and companies regarding ecological costs and their image. This thesis mainly aims to help scholars, interested in further research to deepen the knowledge on waterborne transportation in a sustainability context, but also companies and governance, looking to make waterborne transportation more sustainable.

Abstract:
Le secteur public est un domaine en perpétuelle mutation, de par la pression économique actuelle mais aussi du fait des progrès technologiques constants. C'est en particulier le cas des collectivités territoriales, dans lesquelles les agents du secteur public sont soumis à de fortes pressions, notamment par la nécessité d'assurer un service de qualité aux usagers tout en minimisant les coûts engagés, mais également du fait de devoir développer de nouvelles compétences pour répondre à des exigences en évolution. Les projets actuels, impliquant de multiples technologies et le besoin de travailler en synergie avec les acteurs territoriaux, sont devenus primordiaux pour la gestion des chaînes logistiques du secteur public. Le domaine du génie industriel a développé diverses méthodes pouvant répondre à ces nouveaux besoins. Ces méthodes englobent différentes théories et pratiques allant du progrès permanent à la gestion de la chaîne logistique jusqu’à la gestion de la relation client. Ces pratiques visent avant tout à améliorer la coordination et l'intégration de toutes les activités nécessaires à l'élaboration d’un produit ou un service. L’apparition de nouvelles démarches, telles que la Smart City, légitime la mise en pratique de méthodes industrielles pour la gestion de services répondant à l’intérêt général d’un territoire. Dès lors, l'objectif de ce travail a été de transposer aux collectivités territoriales des méthodes issues du génie industriel, en s’appuyant sur la démarche de la Smart City, afin de permettre une synergie entre les partenaires, tout en augmentant la productivité de l’organisation dans la fourniture de services publics plus performants.

Abstract:
La tesi vuole focalizzarsi sull'interdipendenza tra le nuove pratiche di consumo che emergono all'interno del paradigma della Sharing Economy, e le politiche della Smart city, unite allo sviluppo delle ICT. Attraverso un approccio di ricerca allo stesso tempo teorico ed empirico, l'obiettivo è di mettere al centro le persone all'interno dei discorsi sulle città intelligenti. Attraverso un'analisi ad ampio raggio sugli utenti di servizi di "Sharing mobility" (intesi come servizi "smart"), l'obiettivo della ricerca è stato indagare a vari livelli l'universo dei bisogni e dei valori a cui questi attingono e l'impatto sugli stili di vita e di mobilità. Partendo dagli utilizzatori finali di questi servizi di Smart mobility, è stato possibile comparare il profilo dell'utenza con il profilo delle "Smart People" così come delineato nei discorsi istituzionali, accademici e delle corporate all'interno delle differenti visioni di Smart city.La città è oggi, più di sempre, il luogo del cambiamento, della rivoluzione dell’abitare e del consumare, dei nuovi movimenti sociali urbani. Basti pensare al movimento #occupy, alle forme di autogestione degli spazi culturali (si pensi ai tanti spazi occupati come teatri, cinema, etc.), ai GAS (gruppi di acquisto solidale), alle iniziative dal basso di sensibilizzazione sui temi della sostenibilità ambientale e mobilità sostenibile, e a favore dell’interculturalità e accoglienza degli immigrati. La città è il luogo di hackaton, fiere ed eventi internazionali, invasa dai maker come dai cosplayer, in un flusso continuo di riappropriazione e risemantizzazione degli spazi, che vede nella condivisione di conoscenza e idee (ma anche di beni e servizi) uno dei suoi valori fondanti. Lo studio di questi fenomeni sociali deve interessarci, dobbiamo in qualche modo interpretarne le motivazioni e canalizzare queste spinte dal basso, coglierne le connessioni, affinché esse vengano incluse e integrate come fattore strategico in un una nuova visione di città. L’importanza di uno sguardo sociologico pervade questa ricerca:  I Parte - "Urban places, electronic spaces and human activities": l'obiettivo è comprendere la città per come si mostra oggi, ovvero nella sua notevole e crescente complessità, passando in rassegna le caratteristiche degli organismi urbani per come essi si mostrano, luogo di contraddizioni e libertà, diritti e costrizioni. La città è il luogo della cittadinanza e di una nuova “abitanza precaria” vissuta in modo sempre più fluido tra gli spazi dei flussi e quelli dei luoghi.  II Parte - "Beyond the definition of Smart city: finding Smart People": si utilizza un approccio basato sull’importanza della centralità delle “persone” al fine di analizzare il concetto di Smart city per come si è prodotto nei discorsi istituzionali, corporativi e accademici. Inoltre sono stati utilizzati gli strumenti teoretici emersi nell’ambito delle scienze sociali per comprendere e teorizzare il fenomeno della Smart city e soprattutto per provare a definire chi sono le Smart People.  III Parte - "An Evaluation of people smartness: research design, methods and perspectives": viene proposta una ricerca empirica che vuole porsi come base per ricerche future e nuove riflessioni metodologiche, ancora scarse nelle scienze sociali rispetto a questo fenomeno. Attraverso l’individuazione di un “servizio smart” (nello specifico: i servizi di sharing mobility) si è tentato di analizzare il profilo degli utilizzatori che abbiamo definito “persone smart” per distinguerle dalle Smart people, ovvero il modello ideologizzato e idealizzato proposto dalle istituzioni, dalle corporate e dall’accademia. Le evidenze della ricerca esplorativa condotta attraverso una web survey hanno confermato che è importante partire dalle pratiche per comprendere le dinamiche simboliche e comportamentali delle persone. E’ emerso il profilo degli “Smart city user” nel tentativo di affrancare la visione delle persone che realmente hanno comportamenti smart dall’idealtipo di Smart people costruito a monte nelle narrazioni sulle Smart city. La spinta conoscitiva di questa tesi, e probabilmente il suo obiettivo e merito scientifico principale, è stata proporre un focus sulle persone, nell’ambito di ricerca sulle Smart city. Dopo una disamina della letteratura scientifica prodotta sul tema il percorso si è fatto volutamente più esplorativo e ha condotto a: 1. Comprendere qual è il “modello”, il “progetto”, di persone (Smart people) che la visione urbana sottesa alla Smart city definisce o che vorrebbe contribuire a costruire (attraverso le narrazioni e le attuazioni, ovvero le iniziative implementate); 2. Individuare, da una prospettiva teoretica, le diverse spinte culturali e i fenomeni sociali che stanno dietro all’idea di Smart people (così come emerge dai discorsi istituzionali, delle corporate e accademici); 3. Promuovere (cogliendone le opportunità e potenzialità, quanto la necessità) nuovi obiettivi di ricerca sociale in grado di: a. Riabilitare la presenza delle persone (siano esse smart o meno) nella visione, nella costruzione identitaria, di un nuovo modello di città; b. Proporre una prospettiva human-centred di progettazione dei servizi, che permetta di considerare gli effettivi bisogni delle persone e abbattere le barriere che creano esclusione; c. Analizzare le pratiche di azione urbana bottom-up (iniziative e progetti “smart” provenienti dai cittadini-abitanti), in modo da comprenderne l’universo di valori a cui fanno riferimento i “comportamenti sostenibili”; Ma ha senso parlare di Smart city? La maggior parte dei problemi urbani sono sociali, come la povertà, le discriminazioni, la disuguaglianza, il crimine e la marginalità, problematiche molto spesso esacerbate da certe strategie politiche ed economiche. Una risoluzione di questi tratti critici non sembra poter provenire solamente dall’implementazioni di soluzioni tecnologiche, anche le più innovative e sofisticate. Il modello “Smart city” si pone come risposta a questa complessità e a questi problemi, ma, come si è già sottolineato, finisce per non risolverli ma con il perpetuare (sebbene in forme diverse), disuguaglianze e disparità. La mancanza di interesse, da parte delle istituzioni, nell’includere effettivamente i cittadini in un processo decisionale davvero democratico, e l’assenza di un loro reale coinvolgimento, partecipazione e controllo negli Smart city project, ha portato ad aspre critiche al modello Smart city (Holland, 2015). I limiti della smartness, così come intesa nel discorso sulle smart city, come abbiamo visto sono proiettati di riflesso sulle Smart People. È possibile considerare un’alternativa, ovvero un nuovo di pensare la “smartness” (sia in riferimento alla città che alle persone) oltre alle forme che sono emerse fino ad oggi? Una narrazione alternativa è possibile se si è pronti a dare voce ai discorsi delle persone che le città le abitano, le vivono, le consumano, ne rimescolano le dimensioni simboliche e spaziali attraverso le loro pratiche quotidiane. Bisogna ripartire dalle pratiche, dai progetti, dagli esperimenti di successo o innescati da iniziative dal basso, per capirne le logiche e creare un discorso alternativo a quelli portati avanti finora dalle istituzioni, dalle corporation e dal mondo accademico. Questa operazione è possibile all’interno stesso del “paradigma” Smart city una volta che si sono comprese le sue dinamiche economiche, politiche e di potere, ma anche le sue potenzialità. Qual è, dunque, il vero valore del concetto di Smart city? La sua vera portata innovativa, ci verrebbe da dire, è che essa non è affatto una novità: la visione che disegna non è stata introdotta ex abrupto da chi l’ha progettata e/o definita. Quello che è paradigmatico nella Smart city è la capacità di aggregare, riorganizzare, mettere a sistema, riunire, risemantizzare e far incontrare/scontrare concetti e paradigmi preesistenti (Marciano, 2015). Ogni tipo di narrazione prodotta sulla smart city, sia essa istituzionale, corporativa, accademica o critica, evidenzia il bisogno, se non la necessità, di un nuovo paradigma urbano alla luce di alcuni processi in atto: l’aumento della popolazione nelle aree urbane, l’eccessivo sfruttamento delle risorse ambientali, l’aumento delle diseguaglianze sociali. Di sicuro i driver del cambiamento sono le persone: con le loro scelte politiche, di consumo, di mobilità, di stili di vita. Una delle frasi che ho ascoltato e letto più frequentemente in questi anni è “Le Smart City le fanno le Smart People”, oppure “Non ci sono Smart City senza Smart Citizen”; il tentativo di questa ricerca è di affermare in modo più consapevole che è ora di partire dalle persone, di capire chi sono coloro che cambieranno, o forse stanno già cambiando, il volto delle città.

Smart City projects make people live better and cities work better. They apply ICT (Information and Communications Technology) to accurately monitor, measure and control city processes, from transportation to water supplies, the location of city vehicles to the performance of electric grids. Smart Cities are about saving money, becoming more efficient and delivering better service to the citizens living in the cities. They believe they have the broadband and ICT infrastructure they need to be competitive. The most important thing to build up a Smart City is to complete ICT infrastructure construction first. Thus, both Central Government and Local Government must do lots of investments in Smart City Program. And the whole life cycle of Smart City Program includes feasibilities evaluation, initial planning, public hearing and discussion, detailed design and engineering, procurement, construction, operation and management, and re-evaluation, etc. The main purpose of this research is to study ICT SI (System Integrations) firms’ strategies in the emerging markets of Smart City. We study a real case of a SI company and its Taipei City Fiber Optic Network FTTH Project to find out any competitive strategies and innovative business models.

Abstract:
This is a study of Enlightenment in Edinburgh like no other. Using data and models provided by urban innovation and Smart City theory, it pinpoints the distinctive features that made Enlightenment in the Scottish capital possible. In a journey packed with evidence and incident, Murray Pittock explores various civic networks – such as the newspaper and printing businesses, the political power of the gentry and patronage networks, as well as the pub and coffee-house life – as drivers of cultural change. His analysis reveals that the attributes of civic development, which lead to innovation and dynamism, were at the heart of what made Edinburgh a smart city of 1700.

Full text
Abstract:
Information and communication technology is fundamentally changing the way we live and operate in cities, such as instant access to events, transportation, bookings, payments, and other services. At the same time, three “megatrends” in the automotive industry—self-driving, electrification, and advanced manufacturing technology—are enabling the design of innovative, application-specific vehicles that capitalize on city connectivity. Applications could countless; however, they also need to be safe and securely integrated into a city’s physical and digital infrastructure, and into the overall urban ecosystem. Unsettled Issues Concerning Automated Driving Services in the Smart City Infrastructure examines the current state of the industry, the developments in automated driving and robotics, and how these new urban, self-driving city applications are different. It also analyzes higher level challenges for urban applications. Ultimately, this report includes several options for sharing lessons learned among different cities and their stakeholders.

Hicks, Jacqueline. Export of Digital Surveillance Technologies From China to Developing Countries. Institute of Development Studies, August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2022.123.

Full text
Abstract:
There is evidence to show that Chinese companies, with some state credit backing, are selling digital surveillance technologies to developing countries, which are then sometimes used in authoritarian practices. However, there is little direct evidence to show that surveillance technologies sold by Chinese companies have more authoritarian potential than the technologies sold by non-Chinese companies. Some researchers define “surveillance technologies” as including any form of digital infrastructure. There is data to show that developing country governments are contracting Chinese companies to build digital infrastructures. Other researchers define “surveillance technologies” as smart city projects. It is estimated that in 2019, Chinese smart city technologies have been purchased in over 100 countries worldwide. Other researchers look at more specific elements of smart cities: There are estimates that the “AI surveillance” components of smart cities have been purchased in 47-65 countries worldwide, and the “data integration” security platforms in at least 80 countries. None of these figures imply anything about how these technologies are used. The “dual use” nature of these technologies means that they can have both legitimate civilian and public safety uses as well as authoritarian control uses. There is evidence of some governments in Africa using Chinese surveillance technologies to spy on political opponents and arrest protesters. Some authors say that some Chinese smart city projects are actually not very effective, but still provide governments with a “security aesthetic”. Research also shows that Chinese smart city technologies have been sold mostly to illiberal regimes. However, in the wider context, there is also ample evidence of non-Chinese surveillance technologies contributing to authoritarian control in developing countries. There is also evidence that UK companies sell surveillance technologies to mostly illiberal regimes. Some reports consulted for this rapid review imply that Chinese surveillance technologies are more likely to be used for authoritarian control than those sold by non-Chinese companies. This analysis is largely based on circumstantial rather than direct evidence. They rely on prior judgements, which are themselves subject to ongoing enquiry in the literature: Almost all of the reports consulted for this rapid review say that the most important factor determining whether governments in developing countries will deploy a particular technology for repressive purposes is the quality of governance in the country. No reports were found in the literature reviewed of Chinese state pressure on developing countries to adopt surveillance technologies, and there were some anecdotal reports of officials in developing countries saying they did not come under any pressure to buy from Chinese companies.

Abstract:
Um den zukünftigen Anforderungen ökologischer, ökonomischer und sozialer Nachhaltigkeit gerecht zur werden, müssen sich die technischen und sozialen Strukturen in Städten transformieren. Dazu ist die Entwicklung und Umsetzung von technologischen und sozialen Innovationen, sogenannten urbanen Innovationen, in einem Ökosystem mit vielen und diversen Akteuren notwendig. Etablierte Ansätze des Innovations- und des Projektmanagements sind aufgrund der komplexen Akteursstruktur nur partiell übertragbar. Ziel dieser Forschung ist es am Beispiel einer umfassenden empirischen Analyse von 107 Innovationsprojekten, die die Steigerung von Energieeffizienz und Reduktion von Kohlenstoffdioxidemissionen in bestehenden Quartieren in kleinen, mittleren und großen Städten in Deutschland zum Ziel hatten, zu zeigen, ob und wie Managementansätze in urbanen Innovationsprozessen angepasst werden müssen. Unsere Forschung zeigt, dass sich die untersuchten Innovationsprojekte größtenteils mit der energetischen Sanierung des Gebäudebestands und weniger mit der energieeffizienten Nutzung von Energie (d.h. der Entwicklung von Smart City Lösungen) beschäftigen. Weiterhin zeigt sich, dass der Erfolg von urbanen Innovationsprojekten nicht eindimensional messbar ist. Neben der Einhaltung von klassischen Projektzielen (Einhaltung von Budget-, Zeit und Inhaltszielen), sind Neuartigkeit und Umsetzungserfolg erstrebenswert. Unsere Forschung zeigt weiterhin, dass die Zusammenarbeit mit skeptischen Akteuren in allen Prozessphasen wesentlich für den Erfolg ist. Gerade die Einbindung von skeptischen Akteuren führt zu neuartigeren Lösungsalternativen und in gewissem Maße zu höherem Umsetzungserfolg.

Full text
Abstract:
The Sunshine Coast (unless otherwise specified, Sunshine Coast refers to the region which includes both Sunshine Coast and Noosa council areas) is a classic regional hotspot. In many respects, the Sunshine Coast has assets that make it the “Goldilocks” of Queensland hotspots: “the agility of the region and our collaborative nature is facilitated by the fact that we're not too big, not too small - 330,000 people” (Paddenburg, 2019); “We are in that perfect little bubble of just right of about everything” (Erbacher 2019). The Sunshine Coast has one of the fastest-growing economies in Australia. Its population is booming and its local governments are working together to establish world-class communications, transport and health infrastructure, while maintaining the integrity of the region’s much-lauded environment and lifestyle. As a result, the Sunshine Coast Council is regarded as a pioneer on smart city initiatives, while Noosa Shire Council has built a reputation for prioritising sustainable development. The region’s creative economy is growing at a faster rate that of the rest of the economy—in terms of job growth, earnings, incomes and business registrations. These gains, however, are not spread uniformly. Creative Services (that is, the advertising and marketing, architecture and design, and software and digital content sectors) are flourishing, while Cultural Production (music and performing arts, publishing and visual arts) is variable, with visual and performing arts growing while film, television and radio and publishing have low or no growth. The spirit of entrepreneurialism amongst many creatives in the Sunshine Coast was similar to what we witnessed in other hotspots: a spirit of not necessarily relying on institutions, seeking out alternative income sources, and leveraging networks. How public agencies can better harness that energy and entrepreneurialism could be a focus for ongoing strategy. There does seem to be a lower level of arts and culture funding going into the Sunshine Coast from governments than its population base and cultural and creative energy might suggest. Federal and state arts funding programs are under-delivering to the Sunshine Coast.
