The First International Conference on Universal Village
16-17 Jan, 2013 Beijing, China
http://universal-village.org/
This is the call-for-paper to cordially invite you to participate in the
first International Conference on Universal Village (UV2013) to be held
on January 16-17, 2013 in Beijing. MIT Universal Village Program at
Intelligent Transportation Research Center (MIT ITRC) is the founding
organizer of the conference. We are collaborating with Tsinghua
University and Fujitsu Research Center in China to co-host the
conference at Tsinghua University in Beijing. IEEE Intelligent
Transportation Systems Society (IEEE ITSS) is the technical co-sponsor
of the conference. Details of the conference are available at
www.universal-village.org.
The "Universal Village" represents our vision for the future society,
and comprises the following aspects: multi-functional multi-format
communities and a new life style incorporating the ideal mixture of city
and suburban areas. The new vision demands a systematic top-down design
approach to provide practical solutions to challenges arising from
current urbanization trends and to improve the quality of life using
modern technologies.
The conference will explore technologies that may bring true
intelligence to the Universal Village as well as its major subsystems,
including intelligent health care, intelligent transportation,
intelligent environment, intelligent energy management and protection of
the environment. The conference will address not only the design,
development, implementation and engineering of the whole system and its
intelligent subsystems, but also the technical details on infrastructure
layer, informational layer and new materials, etc. The conference will
focus on promoting the research on the integration and dynamic
interactions among different components of urbanization and the dynamic
impact of sub-components on the system as a whole. Furthermore, the
conference will discuss how to effectively collaborate among different
research fields and among different organizations including government,
academic and industries. The conference will elaborate the regional and
culture factors as well as their impacts on the choices of regional
development paths and the key technologies appropriate for different
countries and regions, and venues of potential international
collaboration. Besides these technical aspects, the conference covers
the human and social aspects of the Universal Village, the impact of the
new vision on life style, economics, and future society.
