2. 1 CONTENTS Introduction Lifecycle of a New Technology Concept of u-City Concept of u-Transportation Configuration of u-Transportation systems Changes and Roles of ITS for u-City Issues of u-Transportation Conclusion

3. 2 Introduction Ubiquitous Not new and surprising technology But new paradigm found through existing and/or potential developing technologies Features of the new paradigm (i.e., ubiquitous computing) From individual system into the integrated system From operators and managers into end-users From controlling and managing strategies into focusing on self- controlling and providing information From unspecific users services into personal custom-made services

4. 3 Introduction (cont.) Today topic So far now, most urban transportation systems are focused on separated systems, featured by different services to operate and manage the city Recently, they are changed into the integrated and standard systems by the development and variety of technologies Thus, the current ITS need to be changed into the user-oriented, i.e., u- Service system.

5. 4 Lifecycle of a New Technology Compared with acceptance of technologies, user’ acceptance of the new one seem to be progressive Depending on the user’s activity, the acceptance of ubiquitous service is expected to speed up Propagation Rates of Information and Communication Services Rates (%) Years Maturity Early Initial

6. 5 Concept of a Traditional City Resources Metropolis Comprehensive and Aggregated function with policy, economy, religion, and culture Physical limitations EducationCulture Economy Medical service Policy Transport Subjects Activites Physical sources Citizens The final goal of city is to predict the citizens’ activities and to implement them properly The metropolis is focused on resources, citizens, and their interactions to operate and manage the target city

7. 6 Concept of u-City EducationCulture Economy Medical care Policy Transport Physical resource Subjects Activity USN (Ubiq. Sensor NW) u-City Without the physical limitations 시민 Physical resources Ubiquitous Sensor Network Netropolice (Network) u-City (USN) =/ Similar to the metropolis in terms of the final goal, but not in terms of methodology Integration of the physical recourses by the wire/wireless network Without any timing and spatial limitations in using the information Sensor infra & physical resources enabling to implement user’ activity

17. 16 Need of Integrated Platform and Solution based Hi-technologies For the integrated services and individually user-oriented services in u- Transportation, The current systems and technologies need to satisfy the following requirements Open Center Platform Mobile/Embedded/Wireless CRM (Customer Relation Management) Payment and Billing Web Portal Changes and Roles of ITS for u-City [5]

18. 17 Issues of u-Transportation Integration of information related contents for anytime, anywhere, any service Roadmap for applying technologies and realizing the services Re-construction of ITS architectures because it did not consider new emerging solutions such as ubiquitous Participation in other standardization projects in u-City for including the needs of ITS into ubiquitous standardization Solutions for privacy problem for ITS services like as acquiring traffic information

19. 18 Conclusions Need to change the paradigm of the current ITS u-Transportation in u-City Need to build the roadmap for ITS development based on understanding the ubiquitous technologies Need to prepare for the open platform to support the integrated ITS services
