Speech Title: AIoT technology and its applications in Urban Intelligent Computing and Smart City

Abstract:

AIoT integrates AI technology and IoT technology to generate massive data of different modes through the Internet of Things, and realizes the interconnection of all things with the help of networking, computing, big data analysis and artificial intelligence. The AIoT technologies are rapidly infiltrating into life and production. In this speech, we will report our research work on AIoT technologies and their applications in the field of urban intelligent computing, and focus on discussion of the applications and practices of our research results in the planning and construction of smart cities in super large cities such as Shanghai, mainly including two aspects: First, how to build, test and evaluate the new-generation metropolitan AIoT network as the digital infrastructure of smart city; Second, how to utilize the AIoT network to more effectively deal with the problems of refined urban management and precise urban governance in typical intelligent application scenarios.
