Abstract

The history of cities is that of it citizens: they have decided their location, configuration, development and growth. This has been possible along the years from several evolving technologies put at disposal by the inhabitants themselves. Now we are facing a new digital revolution, an evolution of communications grids and new schemes of productive systems. The traditional technological scenario is reset. Thus we see the need for a tool to approaching the different technologies based on its usefulness and consequences, considering the impact of each application. With it, the information and communication technologies that manage and transform the twenty-first century cities can be reviewed, analyzing their impact on new social behaviours that shapes the spaces and means of communication or distribution channels, as well as the integrated management between the cities and territories, considering the final impact on the citizen: principle and ultimate goal of all urban performance.
