N2 - Abstract
As the size of the population is growing and the capacity of the planet earth is limited, human beings are searching for sustainable and technology-enabled solutions to support society, ecology, and the economy. One of the solutions has been developing smart sustainable cities. Smart sustainable cities are cities as systems, where their infrastructure, different subsystems, and different functional domains are virtually connected to the information and communication technologies (ICT) & internet via sensors & devices & the Internet of Things (IoT); to collect and process real-time Big Data and make efficient, effective, and sustainable solutions for a democratic & liveable city for its various stakeholders. This chapter explores the concepts and practices of sustainable smart cities across the globe and explores the use of technologies such as IoT, Blockchain technology, and Cloud computing etc, their challenges and then presents a view on business models for sustainable smart cities.
Keywords, Smart City, Sustainable City, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain Technology, Cloud Computing, Business Models, City Planning,
