Smart Cities - Achievements and Challenges
Summary
The share of the world’s urban population increased to more than half at some time between 2008 and 2009, according to the United Nations. By 2020, more people will live in cities around the world than in rural areas. As more people migrate to cities, the city’s already limited resources and services such as energy, healthcare, housing and water will be put under tremendous strain. The smart city is a collection of smart computing technologies applied to various critical infrastructure components and services such as city administration, education, healthcare, public safety, real estate, transportation and utilities.
