INTEGRATION PLATFORM TO ENABLE OPERATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND USER JOURNEYS FOR SMART CITIES AND THE INTERNET OF THINGS

摘要

A “metadata model of a city's Internet of Everything and use thereof to implement citizen engagement through ‘user journeys’ and system intelligence through automated response logic. A framework that allows system integrators to build a metadata model of a city's IoE, which metadata model then enables city managers to implement user journeys and system intelligence, in incremental fashion, as the business needs of the city evolves.

1. A system for integrated management of the infrastructure of a community, where the infrastructure comprises a plurality of network-connected infrastructure systems, subsystems, devices, and applications, and where the systems, subsystems, devices and applications are independent and unintegrated, the system comprising:
a user-defined machine-readable metadata model comprising predefined metadata node templates defining metadata structures for said infrastructure systems, subsystems, devices, and applications; connector modules configured to collect metadata from said infrastructure systems, subsystems, devices, and applications; an event engine that receives metadata from said connector modules and which populates metadata node templates using said metadata to create populated metadata nodes; a dynamic metadata map/model assembled by said event engine, comprising populated metadata nodes, including relationships between nodes based on said collected metadata, and pre-defined operation sequences, based on the occurrence of events received from the connector modules, which pre-defined operation sequences define a set of operations according to predicted end-user requirements in response to pre-selected events.
