E-City digital network and city of the future

ABSTRACT - E-city is an analysis on the development of Information and Communication Technologies. It is a study that illustrates the innovations introduced by new technologies and the significant changes in urban planning and in future urban models. The planning of cities and territories is going through a transitional phase partly due to the advent of new technologies and the resulting “digital revolution”. Information and communica tion, which now permeate all aspects of social life, induce even substantial changes at all levels of activities, including urban functions and human relations. E-city describes these changes in three parts: e-Network, development of digital networks and territorial transformation processes; e-Planning, planning instruments and their innova tions related to ICT development; e-City, cities and territories of the future. The book adopts an innovative approach: not only the technological, sociological or economical aspects of the phenomenon, but rather the new urban models emerging from an information society that is increasingly geared towards globalisation. In the appendix, with a contribution from resear chers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston, the reader will find some recent studies of the Senseable City Lab, on how ICTs help describe, understand, use and plan the cities of the future.

E-planning: urban planning and Smart Digital Networks

A BSTRACT - the center of interest of this paper is the role that digital networks have in the government of the future processes of urban and regional planning. The hypothesis is assumed that up to now the technological innovations have changed especially the processes of knowledge acquisition and the processes of representation the city and territory, but their potential, eg., communication processes on the same choices and decision making during project preparation and during their management, have not yet adequately expressed their potential. In other words we can say that we are in a transition phase where we are using new technologies that ICT provides us with the old methods of preparation of planning instruments. This brings to question the influence that digital networks will have on the future of urban and regional planning and ask two basic questions: How to change the planning instruments, and more generally the transformation of urban and regional projects, with the increasing use of digital networks? In an immediate future digital networks also have the ability to modify the physical form of the city, taking on a role that was previously found in other network infrastructures? ( continues )
