Compact, integrated and connected – smart and sustainable

Smart City Context • the rise of the smart city
– new cities: Songdo, Masdar, PlanIT Valley, Palava – retrofitted cities: Rio de Janeiro, Santander, NYC, etc. – IBM’s Smarter Cities – Cisco’s Smart + Connected Communities – Intel‘s Sustainable Connected Cities – u-city; smart eco-cities; safe cities; etc.
• the push back against the smart city – Greenfield (2013); Townsend (2013); Kitchin (2014) – ‘smart citizens’ (Hill 2013; Hemmet & Townsend 2013)
![Page 18: Setting the scene - Global perspective of smart and ... · Setting the scene - Global perspective of smart and . sustainable urban initiatives . Didier Vancutsem . Urban expert -](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050421/5f90b8dc0fb24c47eb1801a9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Smart City Context • Kitchin (2014) identifies two smart cities
– the smart city linked to policy debates (Hollands 2008) – the smart city as envisioned by technologists (Greenfield 2013)
• both are concerned with the role played by ICT in the city – wired cities (Dutton et al 1987) – global cities (Sassen 1991) – cities of bits (Mitchell 1995) – network societies (Castells 1996) – digital cities (Ishida & Isbister 2000) – intelligent cities (Komninos 2002) – cyber cities (Graham 2004)

A definition from policy literatures • Giffinger et al (2007) operationalize
six domains of smartness: economy, people, governance, mobility, environment and living
• ‘We believe a city to be smart when
investments in human and social capital and traditional (transport) and modern (ICT) communication infrastructure support sustainable economic growth and a high quality of life, with a wise management of natural resources, through participatory governance.’ (Caragliu et al 2011, 70)

A definition from technology literatures • ‘It is through information and communications
technologies that smart cities are truly turning ‘smart’.
• “This is facilitated by means of services that
use, among others, networked sensors and actuators deployed in the city, allowing the monitoring of the urban environment in real time, to react just in time if needed and to establish automated control processes with less or even without human intervention.” (Dohler et al 2013, 70)

Lessons learnt – towards smart and sustainable cities • Many orientations/definitions of “Smart Cities” in past years –
but: • In any case, a Smart City is quintessentially enabled by the use of
technologies (especially ICT) to improve competitiveness and ensure a more sustainable future, by symbiotic linkage of networks of people, businesses, technologies, infrastructures, consumption, energy and spaces.
• a Smart City is a city seeking to address public issues via ICT- based solutions on the basis of a multi-stakeholder, municipally based partnership.
• More concretely, the strategies and initiatives of a Smart City must include at least one of the following characteristics (objectives and/or modes of operation): Smart Governance, Smart People, Smart Living, Smart Mobility, Smart Economy and Smart Environment.
