The availability of massive data-sets describing human mobility offers the possibility to design simulation tools to monitor and improve the resilience of transport systems in response to traumatic events such as natural and man-made disasters (e.g. floods terroristic attacks, etc...). In this perspective, we propose ACHILLES, an application to mod...

Commentaries on future-oriented Chinese urban development tend to focus on showcase projects underway in wealthy coastal cities. This chapter instead sheds light on the way that the smart has been integrated into more ‘ordinary’ Chinese urban life, using the case of Wuhan, a ‘Tier II’ city in Central China. It explores the conditions of the emergen...

ThŒe availability of massive data describing human mobility o‚ffers the possibility to design simulation tools to control and improve transportation systems. In this perspective, we propose a visual and data-driven simulation tool based on a multiplex network representation of mobility data, where every layer describes people's movements with a giv...
