Content: In this open-access-book the author concludes that expertise could be the key factor for global and interconnected problems. Experimental results have shown that expertise was a stronger predictor than public information regarding change in behavior and strategy adaption. Identifying non-routine problem-solving experts by efficient online assessments could lead to less volatile system performance, from which all decision-makers could potentially profit.

Series Statement: The Urban Book

Content: This open access book is the first to systematically introduce the principles of urban informatics and its application to every aspect of the city that involves its functioning, control, management, and future planning. It introduces new models and tools being developed to understand and implement these technologies that enable cities to function more efficiently – to become ‘smart’ and ‘sustainable’. The smart city has quickly emerged as computers have become ever smaller to the point where they can be embedded into the very fabric of the city, as well as being central to new ways in which the population can communicate and act. When cities are wired in this way, they have the potential to become sentient and responsive, generating massive streams of ‘big’ data in real time as well as providing immense opportunities for extracting new forms of urban data through crowdsourcing. This book offers a comprehensive review of the methods that form the core of urban informatics from various kinds of urban remote sensing to new approaches to machine learning and statistical modelling. It provides a detailed technical introduction to the wide array of tools information scientists need to develop the key urban analytics that are fundamental to learning about the smart city, and it outlines ways in which these tools can be used to inform design and policy so that cities can become more efficient with a greater concern for environment and equity.

Series Statement: Progress in IS,

Content: This book presents up-to-date descriptions of Smart Services Innovations in industry, supported by new scientific approaches. It summarizes the outcomes of the fifth Smart Services Summit, held in Zurich in October 2023, which primarily focused on the ability of Smart Service Systems to support resilience and build sustainability. As the evolution of Smart Services accelerates, new technologies can be leveraged to create new value propositions and business models that deliver tangible sustainability outcomes. This book addresses social, economic, and environmental aspects of sustainability in connection with new technologies and includes papers on how these technologies can help achieve resilience and sustainability. In this context, topics such as sustainability and resilience in supply chains, X-as-a-Service, large language models for service automation, and location-based systems are discussed. Given its scope, the book represents an indispensable guide for practitioners and advanced students alike.
