The Rise of Smart Cities

By Sanli Eshraghi

Smart cities refer to cities that use information and communication technologies (ICT) and the Internet of Things (IoT) to optimally manage urban resources and services. The main goal of these cities is to increase the quality of life of citizens, improve the efficiency of public services, and reduce negative environmental impacts. In this context, data and information are recognized as the main resources in decision-making and urban management. Smart cities use technologies such as smart sensors, advanced communication networks and data analysis systems to better monitor and manage urban activities. These technologies allow city managers to respond quickly to environmental changes and the needs of citizens.This book has five chapters, including: Chapter I, Introducing the Metameres and Smart Cities; Chapter II, Challenges ahead in implementing the metameres for smart cities; Chapter III, Urban Architecture Changes Affected by the Development of the Metameres; Chapter IV, Traffic and Earthquake Prediction with Urban Metameres; Chapter V, Challenges Arising from the Combination of Metameres and Smart Cities; and References.
