effective and feasible ways to coordinate urban
technologies;
3.
models and methods to use urban data across spatial and
temporal scales;
4.
developing new technologies for communication and
dissemination;
5.
new forms of urban governance and organisation;
6.
defining critical problems about cities, transport, and
energy;
7.
risk, uncertainty and hazard in the smart city
