Abstract

Urban areas are generating many opportunities to develop smarter, safer and greener communities, and to bolster economic growth, attract new business activities and create new jobs. Enabled by fixed and mobile data networks and “Internet of Things” technology, new and innovative applications will eventually contribute to lifestyle, safety, productivity, and energy savings, as well as provide a better citizen experience.
