Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Scientific forecasts indicate that by 2050, at least 75% of the world's population will live in cities. We hope that these will be smart cities or their more advanced models of sustainable cities, which will ensure a high quality of life for their inhabitants, the efficiency and reliability of their technical infrastructure and the efficiency of natural and technical resources. Smart cities exist at the intersection of digital technology, disruptive innovation and urban environments. The condition sin quo non for the success of implementing the Smart City concept is effective management of the development of smart cities, starting with planning and integrating their complex and multidimensional structure. In particular, attention should be paid to energy and transport efficiency and innovative ICT solutions that ensure sustainable city development.
This Special Issue aims to group all the possibilities for using ICT in Smart Cities Development Management. These include, in particular but not exclusively:
- ICT in in the development management of selected areas of smart cities eg: smart economy, smart mobility, smart governance, smart environment, smart people and smart living.
- Energy and transport efficiency of the Smart Cities,
- Smart Grid,
- Integration of the Smart City's information infrastructure,
- Disruptive Technologies in Smart Cities development management,
- Sustainable development of Smart Cities,
- Digital innovation at Cities
- Smart Cities and Artificial Intelligence
