Abstract :

Development of Smart and Connected Communities will require novel approaches to design reliable and robust infrastructure systems. In addition, to provide resilient services, the interactions and interdependence of infrastructure systems in different domains (e.g., energy, transportation and public health) must be addressed. This is also resulting in the accumulation of large amounts of data, which can be analyzed, interpreted and appropriately leveraged. In this presentation, we provide our perspectives on data-driven infrastructure systems in the context of smart and connected communities. We will discuss the need to integrate data from multiple infrastructure systems and a multidisciplinary approach to address problems in smart communities. We will discuss this in the context of the management of water and road infrastructure systems in a city.
