Smart city is to use information and communication technology to sense, analyze and integrate the key information of the core system of urban operation, so as to make intelligent response to various needs including people's livelihood, environmental protection, public safety, urban services, instrial and commercial activities

its essence is to use the advanced information technology to realize the intelligent management and operation of the city, so as to create a better life for the people in the city and promote the harmonious and sustainable growth of the city

with the continuous development of human society, cities will carry more and more population in the future. At present, China is in the period of accelerating the development of urbanization; Urban disease & quot; The problem is becoming more and more serious. In order to solve the problem of urban development and realize the sustainable development of the city, the construction of smart city has become an irreversible historical trend of urban development in the world

characteristics of smart city:

1. Smart city can effectively promote energy conservation and emission rection, and promote the adjustment of urban instrial structure

2. It can integrate public service settings to meet people's requirements in medical care, ecation, travel, etc

I. formation factors:

smart city not only needs the support of new generation information technology such as Internet of things and cloud computing, but also needs to cultivate the next generation innovation oriented to knowledge society. The integration and development of information and communication technology has melted the barriers of information and knowledge sharing, the boundary of innovation, promoted the formation of Innovation 2.0, and further promoted the "melting" of various social organizations and activity boundaries

the transformation of innovation form from proction paradigm to service paradigm also drives the transformation of instrial form, government management form and urban form from proction paradigm to service paradigm

"smart city" is an important aspect of IBM's "smart earth" strategy“ "Smart earth" proposes a more intelligent way to change the way people interact through the new generation of information technology, improve the real-time information processing ability and response speed, enhance business flexibility and continuity, and promote the comprehensive and harmonious development of all social undertakings

and the action of "smart city" is becoming a practical measure of "smart earth" from concept to reality and landing in China. In the accelerated process of China's economic and urbanization development, "smart city" aims to create information-based samples with Chinese characteristics and explore the future development direction of Chinese cities

In March 1975, my old friend Baum informed watts that "a group of people who make TV and video terminal equipment will hold a party", which is actually the first party of "home brew computer club" in Silicon Valley. Woz got a technical specification document imitating the Intel 8008 microprocessor from the party and was surprised to find that it was not far away from the cream soda computer he designed five years ago. His dream of self-made computer was once again inspired. Earlier, Watts had designed a terminal that could connect to the ARPA network (the predecessor of the Internet today) to type and instantly return characters to the screen. In the era when computers were still full of light bulbs and switches, Watts planned to combine computers, screens and keyboards to make unprecedented innovations. On the night of the first party, Watts finished the design sketch of apple I (not named at that time) on paper. At the second party, he sent out the design sketch for communication. At the beginning, he used the Motorola 6800 as the microprocessor by default. Later, he found the specification compatibility at the Western Electronic Show and convention in San Francisco in June 1975, The price of MOS 6502 microprocessor is reced by half
when everything is ready, Watts uses his off hours to assemble apple I in HP's office. At that time, when the computer was turned on, it would not move for half an hour. Based on his experience in developing calculators at HP (calculators must be in standby mode as soon as they are turned on and ready to accept arithmetic instructions), Watts wrote a polling monitoring program in read-only memory to facilitate the communication between the computer and peripheral devices (keyboards). After a series of troubleshooting tests, At 10 o'clock on June 29, 1975, the characters entered by the keyboard were displayed on the screen of apple I, and the history of personal computer opened a new page. At the end of 1975, jobs proposed to Woz to set up a company to sell printed circuit boards so that computer enthusiasts could assemble them by themselves. At first, Woz held a reservation. Later, jobs convinced him with "even if we lose money, at least we have owned a company in our life.". Mr. jobs asked Ron Wayne, a colleague of Atari, to help with his paperwork. They shared 10% of his shares. The company was named "Apple Computer" after Mr. Jobs's apple garden commune, which participated in the new era movement in Oregon. It was officially established on April 1, 1976
at that time, Paul Terry opened his first personal computer retail store "byte shop" in Shanjing city. Terry participated in the homemade computer club and saw watts show Apple I. jobs quickly got the company's first order from him and reached a 30 day grace period with chip distributors for batch shipment. Before that, Watts also made a number of improvements for apple I, including the use of dynamic random access memory chips and tape storage media. Apple I sells for $666.66 (wholesale price of $500 plus 30% profit), and only supplies bare boards when it ships, so Teri has to put the motherboard into a Polynesian Acacia box by herself, and provide customers with additional screens, transformers and keyboards. By the end of 1976, apple I had sold about 150 units, and its first year revenue was nearly $80000. After the completion of apple I, Watts began to design Apple II. For the first time, he and jobs argued that Apple II should be given more expansion capabilities and more slots. Their relationship deteriorated. Finally, Apple II not only has the ability to handle color and sound effects, but also can be used with game controllers. It is the first computer with built-in basic language, And there are eight slots. In August 1976, Apple II's circuit board was completed, and watts successfully played the brick game on the computer with basic language. In order to match the plastic shell, jobs also asked his colleague rod hlot of Atari to design the switching power supply, which improved the high heat defect of the traditional linear power supply and reced the noise
in the summer of 1976, the two began to look for sources of funds. After they ran into a wall everywhere, they set up with Mike Makula, a retail venture capitalist. Marcula finally invested $91000 in cash and $250000 in personal guaranteed credit. On January 3, 1977, he officially made apple a legal entity. Marcula was the president of apple and hired Mike Scott, the director of National Semiconctor Corporation of the United States, as the first CEO of apple. Watts was asked to resign from HP, He and jobs became full-time employees of apple. Apple II also made its official debut at the West Coast computer show in San Francisco in January, and sold 300 units within a few months. Since then, sales have been booming
in December 1977, with Apple II's application software (mostly games) springing up in the market, marcula asked watts to develop a flexible disk function for Apple II in a meeting to speed up the data reading speed. Taking the 5.25-inch floppy disk drive of shujiate as the research object, Watts designed the control interface card of the floppy disk drive two weeks before the launch of the international consumer electronics show in Las Vegas on Christmas day. From 1978 to 1979, the sales volume of Apple II increased significantly, from 1000 to 10000 units per month. During this period, Watts worked in the proct development of apple computer. In 1980, the value of Apple's shares rose by leaps and bounds. Woz felt that his colleagues in the company had paid a lot, so he launched a "Woz plan". He sold nearly one-third of his 80000 shares to the company's employees at a low price of $5 per share, and gave them to the early entrepreneurs, each with a million dollars worth of shares. Jobs didn't think much of it. Woz used the money to buy a villa in the mountains. However, material wealth could not make up for the broken marriage. At the end of the year, his marriage with his first wife, Alice, ended peacefully< On December 12, 1980, four days after John Lennon was shot dead by crazy fans, apple computer's shares were officially listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, and 4.6 million shares were sold out in an hour. It became the most oversubscribed first public offering of Ford Motor Company since it was listed on the list of Fortune 500 companies. In September 2000, Watts was officially listed in the National Inventors Hall of fame. In 2001, Woz founded Zeus Wheel Co., Ltd., which is engaged in the research and development of wireless global positioning system technology. In 2002, Watts joined the board of ripcord networks and invested in a new telecommunications business with former Apple friends Alan Hancock, Jill Amelio, Mike Connor and Zeus wheel partner Alice felting. In the same year, Watts joined the board of directors of danger, a company that developed and designed the handheld computer Hiptop< In May 2004, nominated by Dr. Tom Miller, Watts received an honorary degree of doctor of science from North Carolina State University, an honorary degree of doctor of engineering from catling University, Michigan, and an honorary degree of doctor of science from Southeast University, Nova, Florida for his outstanding contribution to personal computers
in 2006, Zeus wheel ended its business, and watts turned to the partnership with Apple's old friends Alan Hancock and Jill Amelio to establish "Iquique technology", which specializes in acquiring and developing other technology companies. In September of the same year, Woz and Gina Smith co authored and published his autobiography iwoz: I am Woz. At present, he is writing three books, one of which is about pranks
in 2010, in season 4 of the big bang theory, Steve Wozniak also played a cameo role in himself, and the screenwriter expressed his respect for Steve Wozniak through the words of Sheldon, the protagonist of the show, which has mocked Apple's procts and employees more than once before, thus showing its great influence. Wozniak joined planet capital, a bitcoin based digital currency blockchain company, in May 2015. Planet capital, a multi-functional ATM operator, has announced that Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has joined its board of directors as a consultant and director, cointelegraph South Africa reported
ctodan Sokol of the company confirmed the news to cointelegraph, which is a decisive step in the development of the relationship between Woz and blockchain. "It's very valuable to have a creative engineer like Woz give us advice," Sokol said
planet capital is located in Los Angeles. Its ATM can be used as both a legal currency ATM and a two-way digital currency ATM. The company says its goal is to change the self-service payment market. "Having an all star team focused on developing our patented IP, blockchain technology, next generation ATMs, unique network architecture and advanced wallet solutions will make us a breakthrough in the payment instry," CEO A. Lyle Elias said in a news release on Tuesday
Woz's becoming a member of the "All Star" team is very eye-catching, which has aroused people's curiosity about the relationship between the blockchain and the application "Apple pay" developed by apple. Planet capital's ambition to launch a multi-functional ATM is obvious. Its board members include Steve Mayer, founder of Atari, reed hunt, FCC chairman of Clinton administration, former chief financial officer of Carlyle Group, John Harris, former IBM / Seagate executive and Ken Hardesty
Lee caplin, chairman of the board, said: "my think tank includes some Silicon Valley heavyweights." In addition to the traditional ATM function, the machine allows customers to pay bills, allows suppliers to process point of sale transactions, allows mobile phone charges to top up, and allows businesses to sell gift cards
