Prof. Sumiko Miyata of Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan

My research area is network infrastructures to realize "City as a Service" in smart cities, where city services can be used like applications on a smart phone. In order to realize various services in City as a Service, large amounts of monitoring data need to be processed quickly and reliably. My research interests include traffic control and information security. In this presentation, I will describe network infrastructure technologies to realize City as a Service from the viewpoint of traffic control and information security. This presentation will also introduce our efforts to realize a secure data management system using a start-up grant from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, and examples of our participation in overseas exhibitions related to our proposed network infrastructure.
