Intelligent Mobility Systems: Some Socio-technical Challenges and Opportunities
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analysis of socio-technical challenges and opportunities around contemporary mobilities suggests new interpretations and visions for intelligent transport systems. Multiple forms of intelligence are required (but not easily compatible), transport is too narrow a term, and innovation results in new sociotechnical systems. An exploration of cumulative, collective and collaborative aspects of mobility systems, allows us to sketch challenges and opportunities in relation to practices of collaboration, communication and coordination, literacies for creativity, comfort and control, citizenship and (lack of) a sense of crisis, concluding with a discussion of methodological implications.

The Opportunities Afforded by Embedded Computer Systems for Monitoring and Control of Industrial Processes in Less-Industrialised Countries (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The dramatic changes in integrated-circuit technology over the last two decades have been of great benefit to countries such as Zimbabwe. High volume production of VLSI chips has produced a supply of intelligent, versatile electronic processing devices at very low cost. In particular the facilities of the microcontroller have steadily developed to the accompaniment of a reduction in price. Sinc...
متن کاملEvaluating Intelligent Systems for Complex Socio-technical Problems: Seeking Wicked Methods
Many of today’s most advanced government-sponsored systems engineering efforts are developing technology to address complex socio-technical problems. This paper describes some of the challenges associated with traditional field-based evaluation methods for supporting these types of systems engineering efforts, and offers modeling and simulation as a tool to supplement field-evaluation. One curr...
