Smart City definitions
• Many definitions depending on view, role, discipline, sector,
domain, country, …
• Combination of physical, digital, services, infrastructure

A Smart City is a dynamic complex socio-technical system-of-
systems that integrates information and communication
technology into its structure to manage and improve its
planning, services, and operations towards a livable city.
