China is undertaking an unprecedented development of rapid urbanization, and a large number of rural people are pouring into cities. It is estimated that the proportion of China's urban population will reach 60% in 2030. In fact, China's ecological environment has already been severely damaged. To be specific, large areas of river basin have been polluted, and a great deal of farmland has been replaced. However, current landscape planning and design are not trying to solve these urban issues, on the contrary, it costs huge in pursuit of one-sided visual effects. It merely accelerates the deterioration of our living environment. Thus, returning to the basic production of land, returning to the original landscape design as the art of survival, bringing food planting back to people's daily lives, and creating a productive landscape in the city are the strategies of survival for human being. The article focuses on urban productive landscape, which reflects several issues, such as agricultural production, current urban lifestyles, environmental quality, etc. It summarizes that the urban productive landscape plays a positive role and has a great potential in terms of enhancing the environmental, social, and economic status. Problems faced in the specific process of implementations and corresponding solutions are also given in the end.

With the advent of the knowledge economy and the rapid development of information technology era, people's demand for the living environment has been far more than mere material comfort. In this paper, good landscape design for residential quarter not only provides appropriate living conditions for dweller, satisfies people's yearning for home, improves the quality of urban environment, but also is the main prerequisites which measure the green quality and management of the community. Landscape planning and design of residential environment exists failed plant landscape design, weak user-friendly design, ignoring landscape such as issues. We have identified the principles of landscape planning and design community, and allocation of green plants. It is the important weights that real estate developers sell their items, which is an important success factor that the real estate developers operate company, and people will pay more and more attention to the landscape design.

With the development of the city, the urban parks of the red revolutionary culture have been gradually recognized by people. Red culture can arouse people's special memory for a period and a city, thus gradually applying to the urban landscape planning. Based on this, in this paper, in terms of terrain, water, artificial structure, light and shade, color and so on, the urban park landscape of the red revolutionary culture was planned and studied. At the same time, by using a large number of successful cases of domestic red landscape and foreign commemorative landscape, a way of thinking and method for the design of red landscape was explored. In addition, taking the Wuzhishan red cultural theme park as an example, the study was carried out, and the problems faced by the red culture theme park in the planning and design stage were expounded. Finally, the theory was applied to practice, thus providing an example for reference.

One of the main drivers behind the urbanization process is attributed to economic fundamentals of urban growth, which boost migration from rural to urban context. This migration can be studied geographically, with increasing rates of population as the main component in developing countries, over Asia and Africa, specifically. Research has been focusing in creating models and adaptative schemes to manage and plan cities to promote sustainable development for housing large quantities of population and preserve a long-term living environment. The approach from a smart city perspective, adjusted to the rapid urbanization condition can be helpful to deal urban issues by convergence and interaction between urban agents and information technology. At academia, few works have addressed the role of Smart Cities to face the challenge of rapid urbanization. The aim of this study is to research and analyze if strategies with smart city vision can lessen environmental impacts at cases with rapid urbanization, and how can we leverage technology to promote environmental sustainability at rapid urbanization phenomena occurring at developing countries using RIAM environmental assessment method in the case of Beijing, China'.

El presente artículo se sitúa en una perspectiva ecológica del envejecimiento, en la que se considera que este proceso no sólo depende de aspectos psicosociales sino también de la relación que las personas mantienen con su entorno de vida (físico, social, histórico y cultural). El texto tiene como propósito analizar el aspecto subjetivo de la calidad de vida a través del estudio de las representaciones sociales de la ciudad y del barrio o colonia, construidas por una muestra de residentes de cuatro colonias (diferenciadas socioeconómicamente) de la Ciudad de México. Es un estudio de corte cualitativo, basado en entrevistas a profundidad y observaciones de campo. Los resultados muestran que las representaciones sociales positivas de la ciudad, asociadas con el apego a la misma y con los espacios que favorecen un envejecimiento activo, contribuyen a proporcionar calidad de vida en la urbe. Por el contrario, las representaciones sociales negativas de la ciudad, vinculadas con problemáticas urbanas, políticas y sociales, generan un sentimiento de fragilidad en los espacios urbanos que disminuye la calidad de vida.AbstractThis article is part of the ecological perspective on aging, which considers that this process not only depends on psychosocial aspects but also on the relationship people have with their living environment (physical, social, historical and cultural). The text seeks to analyze the subjective aspect of the quality of life through the study of the social representations of the city and the neighborhood, constructed by a sample of residents of four neighborhoods in Mexico City with different socio-economic status. It is a qualitative study, based on in-depth interviews and field observations. The results show that positive social representations of the city, associated with attachment to it and to spaces that encourage active aging, help provide quality of life in the city. On the contrary, negative social representations of the city, linked to urban, political and social problems, create a sense of fragility in urban areas that reduces the quality of life.

Urbanization is a big concern for both developed and developing countries in recent years. People shift themselves and their families to urban areas for the sake of better education and a modern lifestyle. Due to rapid urbanization, cities are facing huge challenges, one of which is waste management, as the volume of waste is directly proportional to the people living in the city. The municipalities and the city administrations use the traditional wastage classification techniques which are manual, very slow, inefficient and costly. Therefore, automatic waste classification and management is essential for the cities that are being urbanized for the better recycling of waste. Better recycling of waste gives the opportunity to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills by reducing the need to collect new raw material. In this paper, the idea of a real-time smart waste classification model is presented that uses a hybrid approach to classify waste into various classes. Two machine learning models, a multilayer perceptron and multilayer convolutional neural network (ML-CNN), are implemented. The multilayer perceptron is used to provide binary classification, i.e., metal or non-metal waste, and the CNN identifies the class of non-metal waste. A camera is placed in front of the waste conveyor belt, which takes a picture of the waste and classifies it. Upon successful classification, an automatic hand hammer is used to push the waste into the assigned labeled bucket. Experiments were carried out in a real-time environment with image segmentation. The training, testing, and validation accuracy of the purposed model was 0.99% under different training batches with different input features.
