Smart City Assessment

A Novel Framework for Development and Evaluation of Smart Cities

By: Azzam Abu-Rayash

Smart City Assessment: A Novel Framework for Development and Evaluation of Smart Cities outlines a new assessment model for smart cities, including energy, environmental, and economic factors. It introduces a new paradigm to the understanding of smart cities by defining it using eight main domains, each domain using four specific performance indicators. This book defines a smart city as one with a smart environment, smart economy, smart society, smart culture, smart governance, smart energy, smart infrastructure, smart transportation, and one that is resilient to pandemics and global emergencies. This book begins by outlining these basic elements of a smart city, from sustainability to transportation networks. It then proposes a framework for evaluation, before analyzing both technological and socioeconomic factors in more detail. Central to the reader's understanding are the wide range of detailed case studies based on real-world cities, analyzing their smart-ness and demonstrating the application of a Smart City Index ranking based on the assessment criteria. The application of this novel and comprehensive methodology is applied on 20 cities worldwide and trends, relationships between indicators and domains are assessed to better understand the dynamic connections in this composite network of indicators. Providing the theoretical background as well as the practical assessment tools necessary, this book offers a timely discussion of the criteria and development for smart, sustainable urban living. - Offers a grounding in the fundamentals of smart city design and criteria, from environmental standards to energy needs for transport and infrastructure - Provides a brand-new model for assessing cities according to a Smart City Index, identifying gaps in sustainability and infrastructure - Illustrates the use of this assessment through multiple detailed real-world examples, including discussion of potential weightings - Discusses the impact of governance and policy on moving forwards
