The event was open to the whole community and was attended by professors, researchers, students.
As representatives of the <a href="http://www.eb.mil.br/web/ingresso/ime">Instituto Militar de Engenharia (IME)</a>, <a href="https://itsrio.org/en/en-home/">Instituto de Tecnologia e Sociedade (ITS)</a> and <a href="https://institutoaldeia.com.br/">Instituto Aldeia</a>.</p>
<p>We would like to thanks <a href="http://www.ic.uff.br/index.php/pt/">Instituto de Computação (IC/UFF)</a> for oppening the doors to our event and the professors José Raphael Bokehi (IC Director) and Lúcia Drummond (Postgraduate Coordinator, at the Dean of Research, Graduate Studies and Innovation at Universidade Federal Fluminense).</p>
<p>The presentations were interesting and generated some debates around the subjects.</p>

Last week we held a meeting with Juliana Lima, pedagogue and director of <strong>Instituto Aldeia</strong>, the 1st Collaborative Educational Hub of Niterói/RJ, Brazil.</p>
<p>Instituto Aldeia is a private institute articulator of local networks of educational support and educational entrepreneurship.
In this sense, it is an institute for research and dissemination of experiences, services and educational initiatives undertaken by people who wish to improve access and the right to education.</p>
<p><img src="/assets/images/InstitutoAldeia/meetingaldeia.jpg" alt="Meeting" /></p>
<p>In our meeting we exchanged ideas about Smart City theme dissemination for basic education of fundamental school.
Thus, we discussed about how is it possible to bring this theme discussions for students and teachers?
In front of this talk, Instituto Aldeia defined a new thematic for organizing activities: “Innovative Technologies and Educative Society”.</p>
<p>We are pleased to exchange knowledge and meet incredible projects such as the <strong>Instituto Aldeia</strong>.

Our group started organizing special sessions and workshops on conferences encompassing Smart Cities theme.
This book was idealized from the exchange of knowledge with researchers and students in those conferences,
special sessions and workshop over the last two years.
The opportunity to idealize this book was essential to concatenate and present state-of-the-art works in our book entitled <strong>Smart and Digital Cities from Computational Intelligence to Applied Social Science</strong>.</p>
<p><img src="/assets/images/book/frontpage.jpg" alt="Book cover" /></p>
<p>The book presents:</p>
<ul>
<li>State-of-the-art contributions in the field of computational intelligence applied to smart cities;</li>
<li>Represents effort of a diverse group of authors, and came from research results of three different
workshos that were organized regarding this topic;</li>
<li>Server as useful source not only for the academic but also to the industry.</li>
</ul>
<p>Abstract:
This book presents up-to-date information on the future digital and smart cities. In particular, it describes novel insights about the use of computational intelligence techniques and decentralized technologies, covering urban aspects and services, cities governance and social sciences. The topics covered here range from the state-of-the-art computational techniques to current discussions regarding drones, blockchain, smart contracts and cryptocurrencies. The idealization of this material emerged with a journay of free knowledge exchange from a diverse group of authors, who met each other through four different events (workshops and special sessions) organized with the purpose of boosting the concepts surrounding smart cities. We believe that this book comprises innovative and precise information regarding state-of-the-art applications and ideas for the future of cities and society. It will surely be useful not only for the academic community but also to the industry professionals and city maners.</p>
