Game Theoretic Approach

IoT is emerging in all the dimensions of the physical world, and smart city is one of the most promising among them. This article focuses on the efficient utilisation of resources in an IoT system. IoT resources have been identified and classified in context to a smart city. The number and type of resources may grow dynamically in a smart city, and user's demand may also vary dynamically. Therefore, to maximise the throughput of the system, the resources must be deployed, managed, and used efficiently. This manuscript has identified the concept, role, and composition of the resource manager with respect to an IoT system and presents a game theoretic approach to manage the resources from provider point of view. Using a complete and dynamic use case, including the multiple resources, it illustrates the usability of the proposed approach. The major focus is on the efficient use of IoT resources in a smart city.

The City

In this chapter, authors deal with the problem of visualizing summarized information in a complex system like a smart city. They introduce the topic of smart city in the context of the information revolution that is taking place in the world. Next, they review how this information can be visualized, highlighting immersive 3D methods such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), which are particularly suitable for these applications, since 2D information does not usually induce a focused and sustained attention. The chapter describes and shows a use case in which VR and Spatial AR (SAR) are used in a smart city system to visualize summarized information about the state and management of the city. The SAR system relies on a multi-projector mapping procedure, and therefore authors also explain the technical details that the calibration and implementation of this type of AR application requires.
