Info on Beacon Technology
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/intersection-pilots-beacon-technology-in-select-mbta-rail-stations-300149057.html --"Operating in a transmit mode similar to GPS, beacons cannot see, collect or store any personal data or consumer information. Beacons are transmit-only Bluetooth low energy devices that send out a signal that can only be used by user-enabled apps running on mobile devices to trigger location-specific content. In order for a mobile device to detect a beacon, a user must download an app that utilizes the technology and opt-in to allow the app to receive the beacon's signal."

On demand trash pickup: http://fortune.com/2015/07/06/coming-soon-an-uber-for-trash/ (Rubicon Global is an example of a startup that’s using mobile tech, data, algorithms and a distributed work force to try to disrupt an industry that hasn’t traditionally used all that much technology: the garbage business. The trash industry is dominated by really big players like Waste Management.
Rubicon’s software finds the best ways to keep more trash out of landfills, and the company’s system also uses sensors and manual sorting to figure out what parts of the company’s waste stream can be recycled and resold. In addition the company is testing dumpster-mounded cameras to monitor the trash process remotely.)

- Dallas Sanitation Services: The agency announced the launch of a free collection reminder app that features a calendar of municipal waste pickups and can send weekly automatic reminders via email, tweet, voicemail or text. https://nextcity.org/daily/entry/dallas-garbage-app-trash-collection-reminder // http://dallascityhall.com/departments/sanitation/pages/brush_and_bulky.aspx
With it, Dallas joins the ranks of tech-savvy sanitation departments like San Antonio, Fort Worth, Boston and Denver, which all offer their own waste collection reminder apps. These technologies can reduce fees for residents while increasing the efficacy of municipal trash pickup — particularly if access to sorting information encourages more people to recycle.

"The main advantage of AppStudio is how fast it was to set up," he continued. "I was able to have a prototype in under an hour." Because of the project's short time frame, Greco said a custom-developed app was out of the question. AppStudio for ArcGIS, however, would allow him to configure a mobile app without spending time on coding or development cycles. He leveraged the city's existing maps and added a hosted feature layer to enable field staff to collect data and store it in ArcGIS. Working with members of the task force, it took Greco less than three weeks to build the mobile app, make minor adjustments, and install it onto eight smartphones."

The Boston Trash Schedule & Alerts app, available for iOS and Android, lets users enter their street address to receive automatic messages tailored to their neighborhood. The app sends alerts if there are any changes to local trash and recycling pick-up schedules, said Lauren Lockwood, the city’s chief digital officer. The free service also explains how to sort and dispose of items, making it easier to recycle or get rid of dangerous waste. “We expect that most people trash items if they don’t know what to do with it,” Lockwood said. “We are hoping that by making it easy and teaching people how to dispose of hazardous waste, the trash will go in the right area.”

- Biblivre: http://www.biblivre.org.br/index.php/en/
Biblivre is the open source library management system that the aim of the Project was to promote digital inclusion through library computerization by means of free software. In late 2006, the Itaú Group was acquainted with the social and cultural relevance of the project and decided to sponsor BIBLIVRE. The Free Library (BIBLIVRE) program is software for cataloguing and disseminating information on the holdings of public and private libraries of various sizes.
Moreover, BIBLIVRE is also a program that disseminates content. Here the user can publish his or her own texts, besides music, images, films or any type of digital object that he or she wishes to share online.
Since it adopts standards that are used internationally in adjusting libraries to information technology, the program enables users to access any library in Brazil or overseas, since it connects them and allows networking.
Developed through a partnership between SABIN (the Society of Friends of the National Library), MINC and Itaú Cultural, the development of versions 1.0 and 2.0. The system is licensed freely as GPLv3 (General Public License of the Free Software Foundation), which permits it to be broadly distributed while at the same time guaranteeing its users the freedom to copy, use and disseminate the system.
BIBLIVRE was set under auspices to Law 8.313/91 and the sponsorship initially of IBM-Brasil and subsequently of Itaú Cultural.
