Population mobility and telephone data, Dr. Sc. Alejandro Lage Castellanos, Cuba.   Proposal for a conference which will take place in the sessions of 8th International Symposium on Community Computing, Local Development and Social Networks, at the International Convention and Fair Informática 2024.

The results obtained from the analysis of Location Area Updates records left by cell phones in their interaction with antennas are presented. Although the position of the antennas is a very imprecise indicator of the position of a cell phone, the analysis of large volumes of data allows a statistical estimation of population mobility patterns. These mobility models allow understanding the dynamics of flows within the city (Havana) that have value for transportation modeling, epidemiology and urban planning, for example. The results that have already been applied and their projections will be discussed.

In this edition, the symposium will analyze the ideas and experiences gained from the use of technologies to increase efficiency, economic development, sustainability and the quality of life of citizens and communities. As part of the accelerated digitalization process that cities are facing, the impact of the use of the Internet and social networks in society will also be discussed, with the aim of deepening the different approaches to their responsible and safe use. The event will be attended by national and international experts, who will share their knowledge and success stories on different topics.
