IBM and Portland team up to see into city's future

Press Release:IBM and City of Portland Collaborate to Build a Smarter City. Portland, OR - 09 Aug 2011: To better understand the dynamic behaviour of cities, the City of Portland and IBM (NYSE: IBM) have collaborated to develop an interactive model of the relationships that exist among the city's core systems, including the economy, housing, education, public safety, transportation, healthcare/wellness, government services and utilities. The resulting computer simulation allowed Portland's leaders to see how city systems work together, and in turn identify opportunities to become a "smarter city".
