Systems-based approach to public electric vehicle supply equipment expansion
The lack of charging stations and the associated range anxiety remain the most cited barriers to Electric Vehicle (EV) adoption in cities despite ongoing efforts by public and private organisations. Policies outline detailed requirements and plan for the expansion of Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), however, comprehensive insights into the challenges identified and strategies developed remain scarce. This study analyses over 100 policies…
Drivers behind the public perception of artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) is not only disrupting industries and businesses, particularly the ones have fallen behind the adoption, but also significantly impacting public life as well. This calls for government authorities pay attention to public opinions and sentiments towards AI. Nonetheless, there is limited knowledge on what the drivers behind the public perception of AI are. Bridging this gap is the rationale of this paper. As the methodo…
Urban Resilience T hrough Cognitive Computing Systems
Global urbanization and heat-related fatalities are rapidly increasing, while the full potential of advanced information technologies to mitigate urban heat has not yet been used by city planners and policymakers. Cognitive computing systems (CCSs), which mimic human information processing and reasoning abilities, can transform how cities strategize and operate. In this commentary, we develop a framework and outline future research directions to …
Artificial intelligence in local governments
Highly sophisticated capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) have skyrocketed its popularity across many industry sectors globally. The public sector is one of these. Many cities around the world are trying to position themselves as leaders of urban innovation through the development and deployment of AI systems. Likewise, increasing numbers of local government agencies are attempting to utilise AI technologies in their operations to deliver…
What are the key factors affecting smart city transformation readiness? Evidence from Australian cities
Association between park visits and mental health in a developing country context
Factors Affecting Electric Vehicle Uptake
Transport activities are among the major contributors of greenhouse gas emissions and the resulting global climate crisis. Despite some efforts in shifting from internal combustion engines to electric motors, the global market share of electric vehicles (EVs) is very low—about 1%. This figure even goes as low as 0.4% for some developed countries—e.g., Australia. There is a growing, but still limited, number of studies investigating the key factor…
Photography as unconcealment
What distinguishes photography from other visual mediums? This deceptively simple but fundamental question has been at the centre of both past and current debates on the aesthetics of photography for quite some time. In this article, I will first address the premise that this question is intrinsically ontological and unfolded in pioneering debates as a sequence of implications about photographic indexicality. I will then argue that the ontologica…
A critical analysis of the SIA process in Turkey
This article assesses the quality of the Social Impact Assessment (SIA) process in Turkey through an exploration of the legal status and practical dimensions of SIA. We examined a randomly selected sample of SIAs, implemented in 67 development and investment projects between 1993 and 2011, using non-mandatory indicators of quality assessment. We found that, although this period has seen substantial improvements in the legal status of SIA and some…
Homegrown Sounds of Istanbul
This study broadly examines the relationship between "world music" and the production of place and locality in the cultural economy of late capitalism by looking at the Turkish case, focusing specifically on how Doublemoon, an internationally well-known Istanbul-based label, constructs an "Istanbul sound" under the label of "world music" or "world fusion." It investigates how the image of Istanbul produced through the category of world music is a…
