This book develops tools and techniques that will help urban
residents gain access to urban computing. Metaphorically speaking,
it is taking computing to the street by giving the general public -
rather than just researchers and professionals - the power to
leverage available city infrastructure and create solutions
tailored to their individual needs. It brings together five
articles that are based on presentations given at the Street
Computing Workshop held on 24 November 2009 in Melbourne in
conjunction with the Australian Computer-Human Interaction
conference (OZCHI 2009). This volume focuses on applying urban
informatics, urban and community sensing and open application
programming interfaces (APIs) to the public space through the
delivery of online services, on demand and in real time. It then
offers a case study of how the city of Singapore has harnessed the
potential of an online infrastructure so that residents and
visitors can access services electronically. This book was
published as a special issue of the Journal of Urban Technology.
