Given the rapid urbanisation of the world’s population, the converse phenomenon of shrinking cities is often overlooked and little understood. Yet with almost one in ten post-industrial US cities shrinking in recent years, efforts by government and anchor institutions to regenerate these cities is gaining policy urgency, with the availability and siting of affordable housing being a key concern.This is the first book to look at the reasons for the failure (and success) of affordable housing experiences in the fastest shrinking cities in the US. Applying quantitative and GIS analysis using data from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, the authors make recommendations for future place-based siting practices, stressing its importance for ensuring more equitable urban revitalisation. The book will be a valuable resource for academic researchers and students in urban studies, housing and inequality, as well as policy makers.

With the rapid development in wireless-network and portable computing and communication devices, mobile users are expected to have access to information from anywhere at anytime in the near future, in the form of ubiquitous c- puting, a term coined by the late Mark Weiser of Xerox, PARC. Indeed, the emerging mobile technology will probably bring us the next wave of information revolution and change our society as we move into the next millennium. Before this vision can be realized, a number of challenges have to be overcome. Tra- tionally, network-based information systems have been developed under wired assumptions about the connectivity and topology of the underlying networks. To eliminate these limitations from wireless and mobile environments, research e orts are needed in networks, architecture, software infrastructure, and app- cation levels, in order to provide mobile data access over hybrid wireless and wired networks, which is the central theme of this conference.
