Objectives
THE COURSE IS DESIGNED FOR LEARNING FUNDAMENTAL METHODS FOR THE MANAGEMENT AND PLANNING OF SMART CITIES.
AT THE END OF THE COURSE THE STUDENT WILL KNOW:
-METHODS FOR MANAGING SMART CITIES AND SMART GRIDS
-METHODS FOR PLANNING THE DIGITAL AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURES OF SMART CITIES
-METHODS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF ELECTRICITY MARKETS

AT THE END OF THE COURSE THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO:
-UNDERSTAND THE DIGITAL AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURES OF SMART CITIES
-UNDERSTAND THE OPERATION AND MANAGEMENT OF ELECTRICITY MARKETS
-EVALUATE INTERVENTIONS FOR ENERGY MANAGEMENT
-EVALUATE INTERVENTIONS FOR PLANNING SMART CITIES BASED ON TECHNICAL, ECONOMIC AND REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS

THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE MOST APPROPRIATE METHODS FOR THE MANAGEMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A SMART CITY.
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO DESCRIBE IN WRITTEN FORM AND PRESENT IN A CLEAR AND CONCISE WAY THE PROCESS AND RESULTS OF PERFORMED CALCULATIONS.
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO APPLY THEIR KNOWLEDGE IN CONTEXTS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE, AND DEEPEN THE TOPICS USING MATERIALS OTHER THAN THOSE PROPOSED.
Prerequisites
FOR THE PROFITABLE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE PREFIXED OBJECTIVES, BASE KNOWLEDGE OF MATHEMATICS ARE REQUIRED.

TOPICS ARE INTRODUCED THROUGH AN APPLICATION APPROACH BASED ON REAL EXAMPLES OF SMART CITIES.
Teaching Methods
THE COURSE CONSISTS OF THEORY LESSONS (24 H), PRACTICAL EXERCISES IN THE CLASSROOM (3 H) AND LABORATORY (3 H). DURING EXERCISES IN THE CLASSROOM STUDENTS PERFORM EXERCISES ON THEORETICAL TOPICS. DURING LABORATORY EXERCISES, PRACTICAL EXERCISES TO DEVELOP THROUGH THE USE OF COMPUTER CALCULATION ARE ASSIGNED TO STUDENTS, DIVIDED IN WORKING GROUPS. PRACTICAL EXERCISES ARE USEFUL FOR DEVELOPING SKILLS RELATED TO THE MANAGEMENT AND PLANNING OF SMART CITIES. MOREOVER THEY ARE ALSO USEFUL TO DEVELOP AND STRENGTHEN THE ABILITY TO WORK IN TEAM.
Verification of learning
THE EVALUATION OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE FIXED OBJECTIVES WILL BE CARRIED OUT BY ORAL INTERVIEW RELATED TO THE MANAGEMENT AND PLANNING OF SMART CITIES. DURING THE INTERVIEW THE STUDENT WILL ALSO DISCUSS AN ELABORATE CARRIED OUT DURING THE LABORATORY ACTIVITIES.
THE ORAL EXAM IS AIMED AT DEEPENING THE LEVEL OF THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE, THE AUTONOMY OF ANALYSIS AND JUDGMENT, AS WELL AS THE STUDENT'S EXHIBITION SKILLS.
THE MINIMUM GRADE (18) IS ASSIGNED WHEN THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATES UNCERTAINTIES IN THE APPLICATION OF CONTROL METHODS FOR AUTOMATION AND HAS LIMITED KNOWLEDGE OF THESE METHODS.
THE MAXIMUM GRADE (30) IS ASSIGNED WHEN THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATES A COMPLETE AND IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF THE METHODS AND IS ABLE TO SOLVE THE PROPOSED PROBLEMS ARRIVING EFFICIENTLY AND ACCURATELY TO THE SOLUTION.
THE PRAISE IS GIVEN WHEN THE CANDIDATE DEMONSTRATES SIGNIFICANT MASTERY OF THE THEORETICAL AND OPERATIONAL CONTENT AND SHOWS HOW TO PRESENT THE TOPICS WITH CONSIDERABLE OWNERSHIP OF LANGUAGE AND AUTONOMOUS PROCESSING SKILLS EVEN IN CONTEXTS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PROPOSED BY THE TEACHER.
