Talk Title: .The Role of Big Data and IoT in Smart City

Abstract:

The expansion of big data and rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning have played an important role in the feasibility of smart city initiatives. The evolution of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and a combination of the IoT and big data is an unexplored research area that has brought new and interesting challenges for achieving the goal of future smart cities. Intelligent transportation systems based on vehicular ad-doc network (VANET) communications will improve many services, expressively, related to transport, security, reliability, management and including the assistance in the reduction of traffic congestion.
in this talk, we will present some recent reserach works in the smart mobilty axis of the smart city fields :

  • Leveraging Smartphone Sensors to Detect Distracted Driving Activities
  • IoT for ITS: A Dynamic Traffic Lights Control based on the Kerner Three Phase Traffic Theory
  • ACO and PSO Algorithms for Developing a New Communication Model for VANET Applications in Smart Cities

And in the smart citizenchip axis we will present :

  • Smart Citizen Sensing: A Proposed Computational. System with Visual Sentiment Analysis and Big Data.
