Smart Cities and IoT

According to Gartner1, a Smart City is

a city in which multiple sectors cooperate to achieve sustainable

outcomes through the analysis of contextual real-time information

shared among sector-specific information and operational technology

systems

According to IERC2, the IoT is

A dynamic global network infrastructure with self-configuring

capabilities based on standard and interoperable communication

protocols where physical and virtual “things” have identities, physical

attributes, and virtual personalities and use intelligent interfaces, and

are seamlessly integrated into the information network
