Data Science Technologies for Vibrant Cities

Smart Cities forced IT technologies make a significant step in their development. A new generation of agile knowledge based software applications and systems have been successfully designed and implemented. Wide capabilities of the agile applications were sufficient to meet the complete set of requirements of smart cities. Fast transformation of modern cities from smart cities to vibrant cities throws new even more complicated challenges to information technologies. While smart cities assumed wide usage of agile means and tools for solving applied tasks, applications for vibrant cities must provide agile environment for exploring and managing of all types of data, information and knowledge. Agile environment must be flexible enough to support iterative data processing and analyses procedures that can be easily reorganized or changed depending on context. The aim of agile environment creation and support is to extend a set of used mathematical, technological and program solutions. In the paper it is proposed to build applications for vibrant cities using agile data science methodologies and toolsets within the commonly used approaches for developing agile information systems
