<span>This paper presents the integration of required basic facilities of living such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure for building the smart cities. The administrations of smart cities should have the smart governance, safety measures with cultural and social stimulus. Four building blocks of smart cities, i.e., people and environment, smart utilities, smart technology and smart administration are described in the present paper. The aim of this paper is to give a clearer perspective of the key decisions with spatial reference that may assume a key part in the plan of a smart city technique. Application of various technologies, for examples big data, artificial intelligence, machine learning, internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, block chain technology to the smart cities are discussed in this paper. Various challenges of smart cities such as information technology (IT) infrastructure, cost, privacy, security, efficiency, fossil fuel dependency and congested commutes with proposed solutions are also presented in this paper.</span>


The current modern year shows quick growth in metropolitanization and population growth of the world that causes various impacts on environmental, social and economic problems. The problems aroused in society influence the livelihood of the people and excellence of existence. “Smart City” passes many opportunities to resolve these urban inconveniences and unsolved issues. The chief fact of a smart city is to create the finest use of resources gathered from the public, make available with reliable services to the citizens with enriched quality and efficiently enhance the day to day life standard of peoples. In the smart city establishment Information and Communication Technology (ICT) shows greater impact. Block chain is a intensifying technology with many excellent aspects likely intelligibility, automation and security. A characteristic of block chain is supportive in improving the standard services and advances the expansion which applies information technology that integrates several areas of interest. Block chain manages the business, physical and social infrastructures to provide effective services to needed users. With the advancement of technologies namely interconnected networks, cloud computing and the Internet of Things (IoT), for smart cities can carry creative as well as novel solutions. Smart cities can offer people with interface and association between the general public as well as the local government. Despite several possible remunerations, digital interruption postures many objections related to privacy and along with information security. Here in this paper, we discussed in detail about blockchain technology and the security framework that assimilates the smart devices and blockchain technology together.

This paper presents the evaluation of usersХ experiences in three intelligent lighting pilots in Finland. Two of the case studies are related to the use of intelligent lighting in different kinds of traffic areas, having emphasis on aspects of visibility, traffic and movement safety, and sense of security. The last case study presents a more complex view to the experience of intelligent lighting in smart city contexts. The evaluation methods, tailored to each pilot context, include questionnaires, an urban dashboard, in-situ interviews and observations, evaluation probes, and system data analyses. The applicability of the selected and tested methods is discussed reflecting the process and achieved results.

Alexander Roos schließlich geht deutlich weiter, er stellt alle auf digitale Kommunikationsmedien aufbauende Lösungen in das Zentrum seines Begriffsverständnisses und kommt so – zumindest implizit – zu einem ausgeweiteten Verständnis der Medienbranche, das z. B. auch die mediale Ausstattung von Städten („Smart Cities“) und die Nutzung digitaler Medien in der industriellen Produktion („Industrie 4.0“) umfasst.
