Title: Smart City Implementation with "Internet by Design"
Abstract:
Future Internet must contribute to the improvement of efficiency and sustainability (e.g., BCP, global warming effects) regarding the all the activities developed and deployed on the globe. The Internet system discussed in this presentation is not only meant the global computer network using the IP (Internet Protocol), but is rather logical and abstracted architecture of the system, such as smart city, based on "Internet of Design" discipline. The presentation focuses on smart energy management and control, which is one of critical challenges in 21st century. As for the target of smart energy management and control, we must design and implement the Eco-System, which includes energy "Saving","Efficiency/Productivity" and "Security" simultaneously. In this presentation, the speaker introduces the GUTP (Green University of Tokyo Project, www.gutp.jp), which has delivered the IEEE1888 for management and control plane of smart city, and is promoting open smart city system development with practical test-bed and it's the technical backgrounds.
