Therefore, it is necessary to obtain measures of levels of sustainability (social, environmental and economic). In this regard, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have been available in recent years to monitor the components of the transport system (transport facilities and services, ...
Research on regional spatial structures has also transformed from the central place model of rating scale to the city network model of factor relations [1–3]. Given the daily innovations in information technology, communication technology and means of transport, constant access to various intelligent...
Thanks to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) development and energy regulations' progress, the amount of data able to be collected and processed allows detailed analyses on entire regions or even countries. However, big data need to be handled through proper analyses, to identify and ...
2. Problem Description and Modeling In this section, we introduce a system model for task offloading in SEC. The detailed description of the SEC network, task, communication, and computation models is presented as follows. Table 1 provides explanations for the notations used in this paper. Table...
Reviewing the scientific literature and analyzing the current state of art, one can notice that undisputable advances that have been made from the perspective of Information and Communication Sensors 2018, 18, 1443 4 of 41 Technologies (ICTs) that facilitate interoperability down to the appliance ...
and actions (training, communication, co-production, etc.) offered by each infrastructure. Open questions also invited the participants to clarify their objectives and targets. The promoters of 44 out of the 45 SDIs in our sample completed this survey. • Interviews A series interviews was ...
In this case, the natural ability of robots to collect and communicate usage data through their own, not necessarily monitoring-, but task-oriented sensors and communication equipment is used in order to enhance this implementation. The focus is very much on data processing techniques, with agent...
