  • SPIEF: ITMO Showcases First Russian Computer Simulation for Urban Development

    Staff of ITMO University’s eScience Research Institute have developed Russia’s first-ever dynamic urban development simulation. This computer simulation represents the process of a city’s construction and its social life. This allows researchers to predict various scenarios of the city’s development and detect possible issues before they occur, which helps improve the urban environment and better integrate “smart city” systems.
