Nicola Villa - reviewed the genesis of the CUD program. John Chambers started with a commitment at the Clinton Global two years ago. it is today set into six parts:
connected and sustainable mobility
connected and sustainable buildings
smart work centers
smart homes
cleaner, more efficient power generation
green information technology

they have moved from discovery phase into proof-of-concept in some of the cities. the next phase is solution roll-out.

this has evolved into: Connected Urban Development: A Blueprint for City Transformation.
connected and sustainable work
connected and sustainable mobility
connected and sustainable buildings
connected and sustainable energy
sustainable socio-economics

move from 'silo' projects to the fourth utility concept. urban sensors will be pervasive. this can be utilized in decision engines to turn the data into information and support, in turn, decision support capabilities.

ch 3 managing workplaces
