2 Smarter Planet – The Story so far | © 2012 IBM Corporation

Smarter Planet – The Core Idea

In the last twenty years, the world has– Deployed a global, high-

bandwidth network– Created a population of over

1 billion Internet users – Added roughly 4 billion mobile

telephones– Embedded billions of sensors

in our environment and infrastructure

– Invented globally-integrated business processes


Good Urban Planning is the Foundation of More Livable Cities

• Develop Neighborhoods that Promote Walking

• Prioritize Bicycle Networks

• Create Dense Networks of Streets and Paths

• Support High Quality Transit

• Zone for Mixed Use Neighborhoods

• Match Density to Transit Capacity

• Create Compact Regions with Short Commutes

• …


Estimated energy consumption by cities of the world today75%

Estimated emission of greenhouse gases by cities of the world today80%

Investment needed for infrastructure in developing countries by 2030

$41triillion

Portion of water lost within cities due to infrastructure leaks 20%

Cities – more than states, provinces or even nations – will increasingly determine the success or failure of our planet .

Challenges Exacerbated in Cities


Changing Ratio of Physical/Digital with Smarter Cities Solutions

Traffic Throughput

Volume of Vehicles

Opportunity for Smarter

• At some point adding additional physical infrastructure such as more roads stops adding to throughput … you hit a wall and you still have congestion.

• Application of Smarter Solutions, e.g., Analytics can push back to an acceptable throughput… and you can get that improvement exponentially.

Adapted from Peter Grant the Queensland Government Chief Information Officer

The Principle of “Smart”

Physical Worldbuildings, roads, pipelines,

grids, airports…

Digital World applications, workflows, models,

analysis, optimization…

sensors & actuators

networks

data integrationOur world is becoming

INTERCONNECTED

Virtually all things, processes and ways of working are becoming

INTELLIGENT

Our world is becoming

INSTRUMENTED

The Digital and Physical Worlds are converging, enabling us to leverage information to develop Insight and Wisdom


The degree of ICT adoption affects the attractiveness of

a region’s business environment

Communications

Greater commerce and growth increases the use of transport infrastructure

Energy is the reason for a substantial part of all water

withdrawals

Water quality affects the health of all community

members

Human capital determines speed of

ICT adoption

Business

Energy & Utilities

Water

Citizens

Transport

Commuting affects quality of life

Transportation is one of the primary consumers of

energy demand

Industry accounts for a large proportion of water

withdrawals

A city is a “system of systems” with separate and interconnected challenges…

An Urban City - an example microsystem


As the world becomes more instrumented, interconnected and intelligent…

Smart traffic systems

Smart water management

Smart energy grids

Smart healthcare

Smart food systems

Intelligent oil field technologies

Smart regions

Smart weather

Smart countries

Smart supply chains

Smart cities

Smart retail

…it creates new opportunities across industries and countries to address these problems


IBM solutions for smarter buildings enable energy, operations and space efficiency

Summary – Across many domains it is no longer necessary

to make a guess about what is happening today or might happen tomorrow

– It is possible to extract insight about today and make good predictions about tomorrow

– At the core Smarter Cities is about using what we already have more intelligently

– The principle of “Smart” is about recognizing the interconnectivities of systems and their impact on humanity
