Computational Urban Planning and Management for Smart Cities: Empowering Sustainable and Livable Urban Environments

The rapid urbanization of the 21st century has brought unprecedented challenges to cities worldwide, including traffic congestion, air pollution, resource scarcity, and social inequality. To address these complex issues, a new paradigm of urban planning and management is emerging, driven by the advancements in computational technologies.

Computational Urban Planning and Management (CUPM) leverages data, models, and algorithms to optimize urban systems and improve the quality of life for urban residents. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research and applications in CUPM, offering insights into how computational methods can transform urban planning and management practices.
