These advances, hand-in-hand with self-driving technology, intelligent transportation systems, new forms of design and applications as well as electric vehicles, are poised to revolutionize urban flows. The distinction between individual and mass transportation systems will erode, as public and private mobility is blurred. In this talk we present the activities at MIT Senseable City Lab focused on a future in which extensive ride and vehicle sharing \u2013 enabled by dimensions of autonomous driving such as the optimized vehicle relocation \u2013 will provide personalized, on-demand mobility with modular car concepts addressing the specific requirements of cities. The broad spectrum of smart mobility applications will result in a drastic reduction of circulating vehicles, travel times, emissions, and parking infrastructure, presenting enormous benefits for urban communities. The research activity at SCL seeks to understand and impact these trends through the design of future urban mobility systems.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESpeaker bio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EPaolo Santi is a Research Scientist at MIT Senseable City Lab where he leads the MIT-Fraunhofer Ambient Mobility initiative, and he is a Senior Researcher at the Istituto di Informatica e Telematica del CNR. His research interest is in the \u003Cbr \/\u003Emodeling and analysis of complex systems ranging from wireless multi hop \u003Cbr \/\u003Enetworks to sensor and vehicular networks and, more recently, smart mobility and \u003Cbr \/\u003Eintelligent transportation systems. In these fields, he has contributed more than 100 scientific papers and two books.
