Ubiquitous City
As tems like convergence move from buzzword to everyday life, experiments with urban form are expanding in scale. In South Korea, "What started as just a dream has now been transformed to a tangible reality with U-City construction in the pipeline across the country in places such as Unpyong New Town, Songdo, Pangyo and so forth.
U-Cities will be a showcase of the most sophisticated technologies available in the market such as radio frequency identification (RFID) systems, smart cards applications, geographic information systems (GIS), location based systems (LBS), sensor-based computing, wireless communication devices, home networking, digital multimedia broadcasting and video conference technologies, just to name a few."

The question is: can this be done on a small scale? Or does the manufacture of U-city require master planning? This will likely be the battle between what will become smart and dumb cities. But will the technologically enhanced cities be the smart ones or the dumb ones?
