The term Quality of Life is essential in understanding the outcome of smart city initiatives. According to several definitions, it is one of the major objectives of activities in the area of Smart Cities. Different studies presented in this paper aim at classifying a city with respect to “smartness”. The results of all such studies however look at a general index. As discussed in this paper, quality of life is highly individual. It is not true that one measure has the same impact on the quality of life of different individuals. To understand perception of all individuals within a city is difficult but necessary, if we want to model the impact of different measures on different groups of citizens. In this paper, the authors propose a way to gain understanding on the issue of individual perception of Smart Cities. This supports the researchers not only in modeling efforts, for example using multi-agent systems, but also in selection of projects. First, so-called life stages (life cycles) are defined to address the individuality in perception. Next, an IPSCS survey is designed and mathematical tools for survey evaluation are proposed to allow for learning more about such perception. In this paper, a survey was conducted to proof the proposed concept and methods.

Cooperative systems play an important role in the field of telematics and automotive industry and they have a huge potential to continuously grow. To ensure proper functioning it is necessary to deal with telecommunication solutions being able to support relevant information dissemination within vehicles networks. There are many different approaches to networking and information distribution in VANET networks. Different approaches can meet partial requirements; however, none of the existing approaches can offer solution being able to meet all key requirements generated by the real traffic. The conclusions of our studies and simulations so far show that an appropriate option must combine Geocast based routing type with centrally operated cluster based support. Such approach also well fits with available telecommunications system architecture applicable for VANET solutions.

The whole process of converting a city into the new concept of Smart City implies the improvement of the efficiency and quality of services made available by governments and businesses and a corresponding increase in citizens' quality of life. This process requires a series of actions that include data collection, processing and use of this information for its dissemination among citizens. For example, it is necessary to promote the use and reuse of information from the government or private entities as open data and therefore made more useful and appropriate for citizens. Technologies such as sensor networks, ubiquity, connectivity infrastructure-vehicles and others, become essential elements to achieve this goal. In this paper we present some relevant aspects related to these lines of action in a Smart City and their application to the traffic management data in the city of Valencia.

Residential mobility significantly influences all other urban processes: the real estate market, the location of economic activities and public services. Especially, the residential mobility influences the travel patterns and demand for transportation services. Therefore, modeling residential mobility should be regarded as the precondition for “smart” spatial and transportation planning. Recent approaches to modeling of urban processes regard the urban systems from the perspective of individual human actors, their preferences, decisions and activities. The micro-simulation random utility discrete choice models explicitly represent decision-making processes of individual actors in their individual contexts and allow the residential mobility factors to be analyzed on the level of individual actors. The paper describes the application of experimental microsimulation model on the study of residential mobility in the Prague metropolitan region. It examines existing data from the point of view of availability and suitability for micro-simulation modeling, provides technical guidance for the application of micro-simulation models for scientific research and the practice of urban planning and illustrates possible outcomes of the microsimulation modeling.
