We have developed a smartphone application, which passively collects sensors’ information (e.g. GPS location) on users’ mobile devices. Using such information, we can identify popular regions and places among the elderly that could be useful for city planner in preparation for aging population. Our results demonstrate different check-in patterns of various POI, and the elderly spend nearly 70% of non- home duration around their neighborhood. 1 INTRODUCTION this paper, adopts a smartphone based mobile applica- tion as the tool to better understand the daily activity of an elderly.

To the best of our knowledge, there is no previous work done to identify the ROI and POI of elderly, us- ing smartphone based mobile applications. Our focus is not only for the elderly who stay at home, but also for the elderly who prefer to travel around their neigh- bourhood or further. Therefore, this paper presents an approach to understand lifestyle of elderly, using the data collected through smartphone applications, and analysing them. 3 METHODOLOGY Figure 1: Elderly Data Collection A user-friendly smartphone application that runs on Android platform, is designed and developed (SUTDDev, 2015) to collect data from elderly.

First, we identify the percentage of home stay duration of each user out of their total participation time. Next we identify the ROI across user neighbourhood, which is Bukit Panjang, Singapore. Further, an analysis is done across Singapore to identify islandwide ROI. Figure 3: Percentage of number of visits and duration across ROI are analysed using a technique called Voronoi regions in Singapore. Diagrams. In a Voronoi diagram, a plane is parti- tioned into n points such that each polygon contains one seed and every point in each polygon is closer to 4.2 Across Neighbourhood the seed inside each polygon than to any other one. These polygons are called Voronoi zones. We divided Bukit Panjang area into 12 Voronoi Zones, in order to get an understanding about partici- pants’ home region since all of them are residents of 4.1 Home Stay Duration Bukit Panjang. The Voronoi zone distibution, zone number, and number of participant homes in each Voronoi zone is shown in Figure 3. Figure 2 shows the percentage of time each partici- pant spent at home, out of his/her total participation duration for data collection. It also shows the age and gender of each of the participant. The oldest partici- pant is 75 years old, and the average age for partici- pants is 60 years.

    so, your loved one is going to prison… Not sure what to do or what happens next? In ‘RISE: A Book for Families of First-time Offenders’, we help you discover: RISE ❥ what happens to your loved one in prison, ❥ how to cope with the feelings you may be experiencing, ❥ how your child might be affected by the imprisonment and what you can do to help, ❥ what to expect when your loved one comes home, and ❥ resources you can turn to. Collaboration between: ReinTEGraTinG THroUGH InsPiraTion, SUPPorT, anD EMPOWerMenT ReinTEGraTinG THroUGH InsPiraTion, SUPPorT, anD EMPOWerMenT FOREWORD I recently spoke at the Family Justice Practice Forum: Family Justice 2020 (on 14 July 2017) on the complexity of family justice, stressing that those who face an important issue for the first time in an unfamiliar environment are likely to be very much distressed by the experience. While speaking of this in reference to family disputes brought to court and its implications on spouses and children, this much is also true for the families of first-time offenders. Very often, the silent and oft overlooked victims of incarceration are loved ones who have witnessed the imprisonment of a family member. Faced with a unique set of challenges, guidance and support is necessary if they are to successfully navigate new and unfamiliar terrain. There already exists a wide variety of information and services available for these families. However, if this is not presented in an accessible and digestible manner it can be perceived as information overload, and if that happens it ends up adding to the families’ sense of loss and confusion.

  • Ndp 2020 Morning Parade Guide
    NDP 2020 MORNING PARADE GUIDE 9 AUG 2020 10.20AM INTRODUCTION: NDP 2020 MORNING PARADE The Morning Parade is called the Strength of Our Nation. We recognise and celebrate the strength of our people: their determination and resilience to overcome all challenges. We begin with a Parade at the Padang reviewed by the President. As the historic site of the first ever National Day Parade in 1966, the Padang serves as a fitting location to start a day of celebration. While the National Anthem is played at the Padang, flag-raising ceremonies will take place across the island as we call on Singaporeans to join in the Anthem Moment as one united people. For the first time, traditional NDP favourites will move across Singapore and throughout the heartlands. The “Fly Our Flag” aerial display comprising two state flags will fly past homes across the nation, while the “Roar of Unity” by our F-15SG fighter jets will soar around the island. On land, the Mobile Column will bring assets from the Singapore Armed Forces and the Home Team throughout the country. Our Red Lions will also jump into two heartlands locations while vessels from the Navy and others will participate in a maritime sailpast. These displays will also pay special tribute to our frontline fighters, essential workers, and everyday Singaporeans for their contributions and sacrifices as we collectively overcome challenges and emerge stronger. 2 NDP 2020 ANTHEM MOMENT SUN, 9 AUGUST 2020 Tune in to the Morning Parade at 10.20am! 2) NDPEEPS 1) MEDIACORP FREE-TO-AIR CHANNELS http://www.facebook.com/NDPeeps Channel 5, Channel 8, Suria, Vasantham https://www.youtube.com/NDPeeps 3 National Day Parade 2020 4 CONTENTS 1.

  • Neighborhood Differentiation and Travel Patterns in Singapore
    SMART-FM Working Paper (not for quotation or citation) Neighborhood Differentiation and Travel Patterns in Singapore Clio Andris, SMART Future Urban Mobility IRG PART 1: INTRODUCTION There have been many initiatives within the Singaporean government to improve quality of life for Singaporeans and visitors through transit infrastructure, transit demand management, land use planning initiatives and housing. The result of this investiture made by agencies such as URA, HDB, SLA, LTA, SMRT and others, transportation in Singapore seems to support widespread mobility for Singaporeans traveling to work, school, shopping districts and recreational activities, and plans have yielded one of the best transit systems in the world. Moreover, Singapore has provided its residents high levels of transportation mobility despite challenges of high population density and rapid changes in development. Nevertheless, in this time of advancing urbanization, we are interested in which aspects of life, movement and socialization are important for modeling Singaporean travel demand needs in the present and future, with respect to rising income levels, demographic changes, and increased need for redevelopment. Future densification and urbanization will require new attention to the impacts on travel patterns as well as a better understanding of physical and social forces. This predicament calls for richer modeling capabilities. Recently, a shift toward activity-based modeling has been successful in capturing more biographical, or true-to-life view of travel decisions of citizens. There is a rich literature on travel demand modeling and activity patterns. Further, understanding the implications of future improvements in mobility includes a need to address more than the traditional journey to work concerns.
