This represents the combination of a passive public policy in the form of an economic aid and active socio-labor policies. As partners of this project, we have developed the B-mincome application that helps tracking all the bills and the communication between the beneficiaries and the social workers.

Mobility Polls

Status: In development

Mobility Polls is a pilot project done in collaboration with AMTU, which will enable Smart Cities to make dynamic and continuous polls to citizens using different kinds of transportation systems. For instance, the algorithms implemented in this Mobile application for transportation users are able to detect among different kind of transportation modes using machine learning technics. This very valuable data is then processed to give meaningful feedback to the city about the continuous mobility flows of citizens and insights on which lines should be improved.

Enrich data / Common Query Engine (Tetracom)

 

Status: Finished

Common Query Engine (CQE) is a platform that aims to provide an easy and efficient way of communication between the wide variety of data management systems available nowadays. The CQE is a central piece to interconnect data stores and it executes the queries in the CloudMdsQL language, which defines a syntax to mix operations among data repositories. Clients using the CQE will have a seamless experience, feeling that all the systems act as a single database.
