Interoperability in the Smart City context Sample Clauses

Interoperability in the Smart City context. The concept of Urban Platforms for the European Innovation Partnership (EIP) on Smart Cities and Communities and, more precisely, for the Urban Platforms group of the Integrated Infrastructure Action Cluster, is defined as solutions that help cities digitalize and manage their services. Moreover, these platforms are the core building block in which the cities manage all their data. Thus, services and data, together with interoperability, security and privacy are the essential concepts to be tackled by the urban platforms. For the EIP, when it comes to interoperability, the priority is on ensuring the vertical interoperability (development of reusable and interoperable services) instead of prioritizing the horizontal interoperability (between platforms). Thus, to maximize the potential replicability and scalability of the developments on top of the urban platforms vendor lock-in solutions must be avoided, as interoperability and scalability are hampered with these locked approaches. In this sense, in MAtchUP Project there are also two kinds of interoperability: vertical and horizontal. Following the EIP suggestions, the project will focus on vertical interoperability especially. Vertical interoperability mainly occurs when the Smart City solutions share data. In other words, the services the city usually offers are fragmented for each sector of energy, mobility, ICT, among others. For instance, the public transport service that is part of the mobility sector and the associated data is not shared with other verticals. All those services from different sectors generate data and information that have different providers and, therefore, an automatic liaison of the different services within the same city becomes necessary. In contrast, horizontal interoperability occurs when data is exchanged between different smart cities, i.e. a city offers similar services, such as the domestic waste management service. This service is also offered in another city and there is an exchange of information between solutions in the cities. Figure 1 and Figure 2 graphically represent both types of interoperability, which are present in the project: Figure 1. Vertical Interoperability

  • Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where InterGlobe has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to InterGlobe. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for InterGlobe (e.g. hairpinning):

BellSouth shall charge the applicable nonrecurring switch-as-is rates for Conversions to specific Network Elements or Combinations found in Exhibit A. BellSouth shall also charge the same nonrecurring switch-as-is rates when converting from Network Elements or Combinations. Any rate change resulting from the Conversion will be effective as of the next billing cycle following BellSouth’s receipt of a complete and accurate Conversion request from Global Dialtone. A Conversion shall be considered termination for purposes of any volume and/or term commitments and/or grandfathered status between Global Dialtone and BellSouth. Any change from a wholesale service/group of wholesale services to a Network Element/Combination, or from a Network Element/Combination to a wholesale service/group of wholesale services, that requires a physical rearrangement will not be considered to be a Conversion for purposes of this Agreement. BellSouth will not require physical rearrangements if the Conversion can be completed through record changes only. Orders for Conversions will be handled in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the Ordering Guidelines and Processes and CLEC Information Packages as referenced in Sections 1.13.1 and 1.13.2 below.

  • Outpatient emergency and urgicenter services within the service area The emergency room copay applies to all outpatient emergency visits that do not result in hospital admission within twenty-four (24) hours. The urgicenter copay is the same as the primary care clinic office visit copay.
