The Internet of Things is a telecommunication phenomenon which has been introduced during these years, wherein every physical thing would be equipped with electronic parts such as transceivers, sensors, Microcontrollers, RFID, actuators, and proper procedures that can make them able to interact with each other and even with the people, turning into an integrated portion of the Internet. The IOT in fact can be used in various areas, including industrial automation, automotive, home automation, transportation and fleet management, medical aids, smart power management, and a lot of other domains and needless to say that is one of the principles and integral parts of smart city and in a comprehensive view smart world. In this paper, first, we introduce our patent called “Intelligent Health Monitoring and Dispatching System (IHMDS)” based on IOT, telematics and M2M technologies for fleet management on construction, mining, and agriculture machinery. Then we will discuss how these type of systems can be used in smart cities and help to urban management. This system has been installed on more than 100 mining equipment (Dump-truck, Excavator, Loader, etc.) in five big iron mines in Iran and helps companies to maximize safety and increase their productivity. IHMDS is an embedded system comprises 5 main parts: sensors, controllers, industrial PC and a touch panel, network transceiver (GPRS/Wi-Fi), and GPS. A cloud-based software which uses GPS coordinates, artificial intelligence methods, queueing theory and shortest path algorithms provides dispatching and maintenance processes.

When modern technology permeates every corner of life, there are ignited more and more hopes among the disabled to be compensated for the loss of mobility and participation in normal life, and with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), Exoskeleton Technologies and truly hands free technologies (HMI), it's possible for the disabled to be included in the social and pedagogic spheres, especially via computers and smartphones with social media apps and digital instruments for Augmented Reality (AR) .In this paper a nouvel HMI technology is presented with relevance for the inclusion of disabled in every day life with specific focus on the future development of "smart cities" and "smart homes".

This paper presents the evaluation of usersХ experiences in three intelligent lighting pilots in Finland. Two of the case studies are related to the use of intelligent lighting in different kinds of traffic areas, having emphasis on aspects of visibility, traffic and movement safety, and sense of security. The last case study presents a more complex view to the experience of intelligent lighting in smart city contexts. The evaluation methods, tailored to each pilot context, include questionnaires, an urban dashboard, in-situ interviews and observations, evaluation probes, and system data analyses. The applicability of the selected and tested methods is discussed reflecting the process and achieved results.

Alexander Roos schließlich geht deutlich weiter, er stellt alle auf digitale Kommunikationsmedien aufbauende Lösungen in das Zentrum seines Begriffsverständnisses und kommt so – zumindest implizit – zu einem ausgeweiteten Verständnis der Medienbranche, das z. B. auch die mediale Ausstattung von Städten („Smart Cities“) und die Nutzung digitaler Medien in der industriellen Produktion („Industrie 4.0“) umfasst.
