Props to @HiruniKegalle for writing up her PhD work into a @ConversationEDU article about the Melbourne City e-Scooter ban. https://t.co/3PfXLBA3xg. Based in @RMITComputing, her work is supported by @AdmsCentre. @flosalim @danulaera

The parking of e-scooters is a source of fierce debate, but technology offers a solution to control the problem.
