in conjunction with<\/span><\/p>\n The\u00a02022<\/span>\u00a0International Conference on Computational Malaga, Spain <\/p>\n Description<\/strong><\/p>\n The purpose of the “USAM” workshop is to enhance discussions on the criteria and applications, methodologies and tools useful for identifying, evaluating, planning and designing inclusive, diverse and accessibility for all. Universal accessibility or \u2018access for all\u2019 is a key component of achieving sustainable development. Conventional transport and land use planning seek an improvement of accessibility without directly serving the real needs of individuals and groups. This leads to issues of transport disadvantage and mobility inequality that translates to lack of access or ability to access key functions and hampering development of social opportunities. These inequalities can manifest in fundamental forms such as lack of access to employment, education or services. Inequalities can also be more insidious such as perceived lack of safety by certain user groups due to their socio-demographic characteristics (age, gender, ethnicity and income levels) that prevent them from accessing parts of their cities and regions.<\/p>\n As transport networks have become increasingly complex and dynamic, intermodality and users specific schemes and policies are needed. The concept of universal accessibility is important for the realisation of urban space that is legitimate, vital and serves a wider demographic. This supports the realisation of Sustainable Development Goals 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and 5 (Gender equality). The workshop welcomes all interpretations of universal accessibility from exploration of the physical infrastructure, \u00a0psychological and cognitive accessibility and perceive and real safety of diverse user groups. The latest generation ITS technologies, such as innovative flexible services and real-time users\u2019 information, Internet of Things, augmented reality, virtual reality and smart roads offers new paths of explorations. The widespread availability of user information and data is also another aspect to for further explorations.<\/p>\n Focusing on inclusive, diverse and universal accessibility, this workshop invites critical exploration (but not limited to) the following issues:<\/p>\n Given the focus of the Conference on Computational Science issues, the workshop USAM welcomes contributions on ICT and computational aspects, proposals and applications from a wide variety of scholars on the issues proposed.<\/p>\n Engineers, Geologists, Urban and Regional Planners, Landscape Architects, Geographers and Economic Geographers, Environmental Engineers, among others are welcome to contribute.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Keywords<\/strong>: Accessibility, Mobilities, Safety, Urban space, Cities, Augmented reality, Virtual reality, Accessibility design, Cultural tourism accessibility, ITS, Innovative flexible services, Real-time information, Big-data.<\/p>\n Each paper will be independently reviewed by 3 programme committee members. Their individual scores will be evaluated by a small sub-committee and result in one of the following final decisions: accepted, or accepted on the condition that suggestions for improvement will be incorporated, or rejected. Notification of this decision will take place on April 2022. <\/p>\n Authors Guideline download the template<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Submission <\/p>\n Proceedings <\/p>\n Important dates<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n Organizers Information<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Chiara Garau<\/a>, (DICAAR, University of Cagliari) <\/p>\n Scientific Committee<\/strong>:<\/p>\n Anna Maria Colavitti, University of Cagliari<\/p>\n Barbara Caselli, University of Parma, Italy<\/p>\n Mauro Coni, University of Cagliari, Italy<\/p>\n Tanja Congiu, University of Sassari, Italy<\/p>\n Chiara Garau, University of Cagliari, Italy<\/p>\n Matteo Ignaccolo, University of Catania, Italy<\/p>\n Francesca Maltinti, University of Cagliari, Italy<\/p>\n Beniamino Murgante, University of Basilicata, Italy<\/p>\n Enrica Papa, University of Westminster, London, United Kingdom<\/span><\/p>\n Mariano Pernetti, University of Campania, Italy<\/p>\n Francesco Pinna, University of Cagliari, Italy<\/span><\/p>\n Alessandro Plaisant, University of Sassari, Italy<\/span><\/p>\n Silvia Rossetti, University of Parma, Italy<\/p>\n Francesco Scorza, University of Basilicata, Italy<\/p>\n Wendy Tan, Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Norway & Wageningen University and Research, The Netherlands<\/p>\n Michela Tiboni, University of Brescia, Italy<\/p>\n Vincenza Torrisi, University of Catania, Italy<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Claudia Yamu, University of Oslo Met<\/p>\n Paola Zamperlin, University of Pisa, Italy<\/span><\/p>\n Corrado Zoppi, University of Cagliari, Italy<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The 22nd International Conference on “Urban Space Accessibility and Mobilities“ USAM_2022 in conjunction with The\u00a02022\u00a0International Conference on Computational Science and its Applications (ICCSA\u00a02022) July 4th – July 7th 2022 Malaga, Spain http:\/\/www.iccsa.org\/ Description The purpose of the “USAM” workshop is to enhance discussions on the criteria and applications, methodologies and tools useful for identifying, evaluating, planning and designing inclusive, diverse and accessibility for all.
