An Integrated Social-Technical Framework of Smart City based on Internet of Things and Cloud Computing

Published:30 March 2023Publication History

ABSTRACT

Smart city is a widely concerned concept in both practical and theoretical areas in recent years. The paper provides an integrated understanding of smart city based on Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing. The paper illustrates the concept of smart city from a multidimensional viewpoint of smart economy, smart environment, smart governance, smart living, smart mobility, and smart people. The paper suggests an integrated social-technical framework of smart city, which reveals the implication for implementing a successful smart city initiative should always base on a combination of technological, human, and institutional components. What's more, the cloud computing platform architecture and the comprehensive cloud computing platform are designed. More discussions are given to the application of Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing in smart community.
