TUTORIAL

Salvatore Dello Iacono

University of Brescia, Italy

Starting from the evolution of urban mobility toward more connected, data-driven, and sustainable systems, the tutorial will introduce the main IoT building blocks, including embedded sensors, low-power communication technologies, edge and cloud platforms, and data analytics solutions. Particular attention will be given to how these technologies support the monitoring, optimization, and management of mobility services and infrastructures, especially in the context of light and sustainable mobility.

The session will also discuss the main ICT challenges related to interoperability, scalability, resilience, and real-time data integration in complex urban environments. To complement the methodological overview, the tutorial will present applicative case studies showing how IoT devices can be effectively deployed in real scenarios, such as renewable-energy charging stations for light electric vehicles and systems for cyclist monitoring. Overall, the tutorial aims to provide participants with both a conceptual framework and practical insights into the development of smarter and more sustainable urban mobility ecosystems.
