Citizens, Cities and Ambient IntelligenceBecoming a more efficient ‘Electric’ Society5 June 2013 Tomm V. Aldridge Director, Energy and Sustainability Laboratory Intel Labs Europe
On Becoming an Electric Society • Ubiquitous data economy • Combustion Free Zones • Zero Energy Buildings • Local and Near Local Renewable Energy • Active management of all services • Migration to Cities • Availability of services • Density of trade opportunities • Clean Air Mandates • Scarcity of Water Some ‘electric’ outcomes
Energy & Sustainability Research • Taking a fresh look at consumers of energy and how we may use technology to inform consumers and improve their sustainability footprint and their economic well being. • Investigating homes, buildings, communities and cities • Focus on creating a platform for innovation around a well sensed and actuated life that provides benefits, opportunity and personal data security
Enabling Connected Communities How can technologies across the compute continuumgive us an opportunity to reinvent new ideas of place and identity yet protect privacy in a city of a billion sensors? Enabling Connected Communities Harnessing the Invisible City How can technology help recognize, leverage, and support the out-of-sight, hidden or forgotten resources of urban environments? Sustaining Sustainable Behaviours How can novel human-environment interfaces encourage sustainable behaviours in the long term after the subsidies run out? Integrated City Services Privacy, Trust & Security Harnessing the Invisible City Sustaining Sustainable Behaviours Policy + Business Models City as Platform How we can sustain and maintain the scaled adaptive systems necessary for the urban environments of the future?

Securing Our Data, Machines and Ourselves • There is a proliferation of devices/sensors in our lives – 15B connected to the Internet by 2015 • Many of these devices/sensors are going into un-managed or self-managed parts of the Internet • The tidal wave of data coming off of devices/sensors is staggering • Much of that data, although seemingly domain-specific, e.g., about Energy, can be easily mined for confidential information about the details of our lives and behaviors
Cyber Physical Blur • “Data; Its not just for billing anymore” • City Sensing: Water, Emergency Services, Sewer, Energy, Traffic, Public Safety, Pollution… • Malicious, improper or just plain uninformed use of data can be fatal… • Asimov’s 0th Law of Robotics “A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.”
In Conclusion… • people make better decisions and will develop better futures when enabled with information about their lives & given the means to act • more, larger cities are the trend; energy efficiency, sustainable living and safety must be addressed now • research must address the city as a platform supporting the good of the citizens and their communities • it is imperative that Sustainable City technologies also preserve privacy and are secure against disasters and attack • “A CPS may not harm a human, or, by inaction, allow a human to come to harm.” How do we validate and enforce?
