Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book provides a comprehensive overview of current research and practical developments in smart urban systems. Cities worldwide are increasingly shaped by digital transformation, networked infrastructures, and data-driven decision-making. As urban systems grow more complex, the concept of the smart city has evolved beyond technology adoption to encompass integrated approaches that combine innovation, sustainability, resilience, and inclusive governance. The novelty of this book lies in the integration of contributions from international researchers and practitioners across multiple sectors, offering cutting-edge insights into the design, implementation, and evaluation of intelligent city solutions. This book explores a wide range of topics, including smart governance, Internet of Things (IoT) and sensor networks, smart education, smart security, artificial intelligence and data analytics, urban applications, intelligent transportation systems, smart energy and infrastructure networks, smart building, digital transformation, digital twins, and urban resilience. Emphasis is placed on system-level approaches, networked architectures, and real-world case studies, with particular attention to emerging and diverse urban contexts. By combining multidisciplinary perspectives with technical depth, the book serves as a valuable reference for researchers, postgraduate students, engineers, urban planners, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking to understand and shape the future of smart and sustainable cities.
