Agenda

• Global Trends, Opportunities and Challenges

• Approach

• Example of Smart Services

• Next Steps

Global Trends

• More than 6.3B people, 60% of the population, will be living in cities by 2050 (source: UN World Urbanization Perspective, the 2011 revision)

• Investment in smart cities will grow from $8B to $16B by 2020 for a total of

$108 billion between 2010 and 2020 (source http://www.pikeresearch.com/research/smart-cities).

• More than 100 Smart Cities are currently being developed worldwide

• China has more than 600 mega cities, it is planning to transform more than 100

of them into eco-cities

• By 2016, the IOT opportunity will be $23B, 20% of which is in Smart Buildings (source: 2011 Executive Yun SRB, Taiwan)

Challenges and Opportunities

• Population growth, climate changes, resources

limitations putting pressure on smart city

development

– Aging people, over-crowded cities, congestions,

crimes, smog, and aging public infrastructure

– Energy crisis, natural disasters, man made disasters

• Opportunities

– Public awareness,

– Technology advances: smart green technologies.

renewable energy, Sustainability

4

Sustainability is not just a social responsibility,

it has a business case too

5

• 36.8% projected growth in worldwide energy

demand by 2030.

• 67 percent of energy in the U.S. is lost due to grid

inefficiencies.

• 25% proportion of worldwide CO2 emissions

created by power generation.

Challenges in Building Smart Cities

• City is a very complex system of systems

– Food: world hunger, safety, traceability, distribution, waste,

– Cloth: fashion, protection, supply chain management, retails,

O2O

– Living: cover/protection, comfort, safe, security, costs,

maintenance, …

– Traffic: safety, convenience, congestions, costs, economy,

pollution

– Education: quality, equality, continual education, efficiency,

effectiveness, learning models, …

– Entertainments: ICT enabled games, digital convergence,

music, distributions and cultural events

– Healthcare and wellness

6

• Immature or missing standards, limited budgets

• Conflicting requirements

• Fragmented and politicized decision-making

• Costs are high, ROIs are hard to justify

• Lack of support for management processes

• Difficult for cross subsystem optimization

• Rigid and siloed infrastructures & technologies: lack of

common platform, reusable assets or reuse

infrastructure

• Once ICT enabled - data becomes overwhelming and

underused

Major inhibitors for Smart Cities

Our Approach

1. Establish a Smart System Services Common

Platform - Key enabling technologies for Smart Cities:

– Analytics models, tools and engine for analytics support

– Agile business development platform for operational

enablement: business processes, rules, real-time event

management

– Agile IT realization platform for smart cities applications

– Integration of Analytics, BPM, SOA, BRMS, Events, Stream

Computing, System Engineering, Cloud and Distributed

Computing for systematic reuses

2. Validated with 3 different domains (Smart Green,

Healthcare and Smart Communities) and then

expand to other opportunities 9

What is Smart System Service (S3)

• Cross-discipline optimization of resources to devlier the best values

• Know the users’ needs: personalized, humanized, simple to use; Smart: Knowledge-based

• Timely, Adaptive, In-Context, Sustainable

• Manage Smart City as System of Systems • A “system” is a complex entity which maintains its

existence through the mutual interaction of its parts. - Austrian biologist Ludwig von Bertalanffy

• Characteristics: Systematic, Holistic, Automated, Integrated, Scalable, High Performance

• An act of delivering intangible value for and with a client (co-creation of values) by solving the client’s specific business problems based on agreed to service level agreement

Goal: To enable the capability to dynamically configure the

processes to adapt to the rapid changing market, as well as an

ability to quickly develop/adopt applications to support the

execution of these changes.

IT Infrastructure

Our Key Differentiator – Analytics

• There are two major concerns driving smart building technologies – Improved user experience

• More convenient, comfortable and productive

• Safer and more secure

– Maintain building sustainability and efficiency

• Reducing energy consumption and costs

• Decreasing GHG emission

• Minimizing resource wastes

• These are often conflicting goals

• Enabling Technologies: – Analytics, which leverages models of the environment, actors, their values,

resources needs, and impacts to optimize and balance user experience and building sustainability in an effort to establish smart, sustainable buildings

– IT infrastructure, which supports the analytics and reduces the operational costs

21

Using Analytics to Optimize Building Operation

• Analysis overall information and make decision to achieve

– Real-time Visibility

– Anomaly Detection & Diagnosis

– Multi-Objective Optimization
