• Smart city concept: platform approach of informatization of real infrastructure and city services with the aim of sustainable management of social and environmental capital

• Smart cities characteristics

Smart cities www.smart-cities.eu

• Development of technology skills:

• Cloud computing

• Big Data treatment and analytics

• Internet of Things – IoT

• Strategic Partnerships:

• Muncipalities (Koper, Maribor)

• Public services (utilities, Nigrad)

• Luka Koper, Northern Adriatic ports

• high-tech companies, associations (Abelium, Xlab, Arctur, Eurocloud)

• research institutions (UL, IMFM, Chinese Academy of Sciences)

• International integration (Adriatic region, China)

• Multidisciplinary approach :

• Mathematics, complex networks and complex dynamic systems

• Computers

• Public Health and Economy

• Environmental protection

UP IAM orientation

UP IAM smart services

• Smart people:

• NAUK - system for e-learning in the cloud (P5)• Survey system at IDO Primorska (Improvement of working environment)

• Smart mobility:

• Optimization module for distribution (P6)• Optimization of plowing for winter service• Project TISAR – optimal use of multimodal passenger transport

• Smart environment:

• Mobile application - Interactive map of pollution (P7)• Mobile application – Meteorological alert (P7)• Mobile application – Environmental alert (P7)• Mobile application – Carbon footprint (P7)• Project SAFEPORT – sensor and simulation system for air and water pollution control

• Smart living:

• Web application for modelling of health care processes – clinical pathways (P7)• CIIS – system for capturing extraordinary events

Smart People - NAUK - system for e-learning in the cloud

• Cloud platform for making dynamic learning materials

• It is based on the edu.Plexor platform

• Principle of Wikipedia for preparation of materials

• Integration with Moodle system• Possible export in standard

formats (SCORM, Common Cartridge …)

• Presented also on the biggest Chinese cloud computing conference 2013 in cooperation with Chinese company Bingosoft

Smart People - Survey system at IDO Primorske (Improvement of working environment)

• Improvement of working environment in the Coast and the Karst region

• A survey carried out on a few hundred employees in various companies

• Project addressed five areas:• stress at the workplace,• absenteeism from the

workplace,• unwanted fluctuation in the

workplace,• burnout in the workplace,• reconciliation of work and family

life.• The survey conducted on the with the

help of specially developed cloud mobile applications and survey system

Smart mobility - Optimization module (P6)

• Development of optimization module for distribution problem from the main warehouse:

• N orders have to be delivered to M locations with the help of K vehicles with limited capacity

• We want to calculate the shortest total distance

• Cloud webservice

• Optimization problem is given by JSON description

• After the calculation the result is obtained in JSON (distribution of loads on vehicles)

• Visualization using Google Earth and KML (Google Maps)

Smart mobility - Optimization of plowing for winter service

• UP IAM in cooperation with UP Faculty of Management, Nigrad and Abelium

• The system for monitoring, analytics and decision support in the management of winter maintenance

• Integration of GPS sensors and mobile devices for communication.

• Cloud oriented system• In 2013 it will be

experimentally introduced into the working processes in Maribor (Nigrad)

Smart mobility - Project TISAR

• TISAR - Traveller Information System for the Adriatic Region• Project in the initial phase• Promote multi-modal passenger mobility in the Adriatic region

through the transfer of information relating to transport by various means of transport (sea, air, rail and urban transport)

• Development of innovative services for the transport of car sharing and demand responsive transport are planned

Smart environment - Mobile application - Interactive map of pollution (P7)

Interactive map that is a part of mobile application contains placemarks of measuring stations, from which data on measurements of various environmental parameters (ozone, PM10 particles, temperature ...) are acquired. Excessive levels of individual parameters may affect human health, therefore, the application also shows warnings that take into account the legally prescribed limits.

Smart environment - Mobile application - Meteorological alarm (P7)

For the current location, which is obtained from the GPS sensors of mobile device, the mobile device can display any alerts on precipitation in the vicinity to provide timely information to the user in case of environmental risk. Alerts contain indication of the severity of the alert and the distance and direction of movement of precipitation.

Smart environment - Mobile application - Environmental alert (P7)

• Mobile application enables review of the status of monitoring stations that detect potential oil spills at sea. The measurements are refreshed according to time interval set by the user. For a more effective action in the case of spill wind speed and direction are added to the application.

Smart environment - Mobile application – Carbon footprint (P7)

Location aware mobile application that simulates usage of carbon dioxide according to means of transport and the path traveled by the user at the time of use of the application.

Smart environment - Project SAFEPORT - sensor and simulation system for air and water pollution control

• Installation of meteorological and water sensors

• Model for dispersion of air particles(CALMET + CALLPUFF)

• GIS system• Wind simulations over the landfill

of bulk cargoes• Database of sensor data• Web services for access to

weather data and calculations

• Tools for BPM in the cloud adjusted for working in health care processes (Activiti)

• Mobile application• Analytics (performance

indicators - Pentaho)

Smart living - Web application for modelling of health care processes – clinical pathways (P7)

Smart living – CIIS – system for capturing extraordinary events

• Process oriented cloud solution

• Implemented in cooperation with Port of Koper

• Partial data capture from the field through a mobile application

• Organization: University of Primorska, Nigrad d.d.

• Special section on smart cities: Sustainable Smart City
