There are key elements that today they are necessary, with this image that is circulating on twitter, you can see how electricity is required to supply the cell phone battery, so you can get wifi signal so you can communicate to others. It is essential today for urban planning and for the convenience of residents that such infrastructure forward and not back in the methods. Basics such as water, transport, electricity are historical but as basic as today. The issue is how can be solved today, which modern, sustainable alternatives exist, and can be deployed in urban planning. And secondly, there are new infrastructures which are very necessary for this global age. Since the satellite technology not just for mobile devices, but to make intelligent cities, synchronization of traffic lights, monitoring, intelligent lighting, etc. Take advantage of technological advances to achieve *design cities that people like to be, not only because it is attractive* (that would mean sightseeing or tourism), *but live it, to use it* (and therefore can only be achieved, fulfilling the basic requirements). > Today a city without a good connection to the internet, does not > attract! **A FEW QUESTIONS:** **1)What´s your opinion from future cities laboratory, how should be a smart city?** **2)**Finally, I've seen at this late time, large cities that have been damaged by natural disasters (tsunamis, earthquakes, etc) and because they have power within the city generators, these have produced extensive damage in the environment of these cities. The question is, **what is your opinion on the implementation of these delicate and large power generators in the cities, and why not place them in the peripheries or remoteness of the city? what does think future cities laboratory on this issue of energy production?** Thanks SeeU links tsunami on FUKUSHIMA NUCELAR PLANT http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzvTQ5CIQSE a concept of smarter cities by IBM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjaQ2vo96xo#t=170 and the next phono is a trend topic twitter image ![trendTopic][1] ![córdobaCity][2] [1]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14158902521981345.jpg [2]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14158902978736838.jpg
