(Please read carefully abstract of the template). Now-a-days the world population is rapidly increases for which a dreadful requirement is necessary for developing a livable city. Hence the term Smart City is introduced which focus on the Smart environment and environment development, smart waste management and sanitation, smart water management and harvesting, smart energy management etc. In order to monitoring the entire city in a smart way, all the related information is required to collected in an efficient manner. Hence, the Sensory Network operated in wireless mode is a best choice for collecting useful information in several points of the cities. Though, the sensory Network operated in wireless mode consumes a high power so the sovereignty of the module. This paper projected a designing of an efficient electronic circuit module which operate with less power for sensory network used in a smart city. The proposed module consists of a sensory module along with storage unit. The Sensory module operates in wireless mode is implemented by multi-channel Radio Frequency (RF) with a frequency range of 310 to 910 MHz and an External Memory as Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (E2PROM) with Real Time Clock Chip (RTC-DS1307IC) is considered as storage unit. Finally, the designed module is operated by considering both the information from sensory nodes and storage unit.

Internet of Things (IoT) systems have advanced greatly in the past few years, especially with the support of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions. Numerous AI-supported IoT devices are playing a significant role in providing complex and user-specific smart city services. Given the multitude of heterogeneous wireless networks, the plethora of computer and storage architectures and paradigms, and the abundance of mobile and vehicular IoT devices, true smart city experiences are only attainable through a cooperative intelligent and secure IoT framework. This article provides an extensive study on different cooperative systems and envisions a cooperative solution that supports the integration and collaboration among both centralized and distributed systems, in which intelligent AI-supported IoT devices such as smart UAVs provide support in the data collection, processing and service provisioning process. Moreover, secure and collaborative decentralized solutions such as Blockchain are considered in the service provisioning process to enable enhanced privacy and authentication features for IoT applications. As such, user-specific complex services and applications within smart city environments will be delivered and made available in a timely, secure, and efficient manner.

This research is motivated from the emerging of Smart City (SC) concept which lately has been implemented in Indonesian’s cities such as Jakarta, Bandung, and Surabaya as a mean to tackle city’s problems digitally. The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) becomes one of the SC characteristic which transformed into applications and websites. The main purpose of the research is to map the categorization of SC dimension based on the abundance of aplications and web sites for cities management. The explorative and qualitative approach was used as research method involving secondary data collection, categorization scheme, and pairing to Giffinger’s SC dimensions. About 338 SC’s innovation accounted from cities in Indonesia but only 109 registered as applications or websites. From those numbers, we then categorize into 14 typologies of applications/websites based on its methods in tackling urban problems. They are job related information, transport and traffic, education, citizen participation, environmental management, governance, bureaucracy/permission, staffing, health, energy management, disaster mitigation, criminality, entrepreneurship, and culture and tourism. As result, those categorizations are, in fact, more comprehensive than those of Giffinger’s six smart city dimensions by adding two more dimensions namely Smart Energy Management and Smart Disaster Mitigation. Despite the availability of the applications and websites related to them, the implementation is still limited.

This paper focuses on a biofuel-based Multi-Energy System generating electricity, heat and hydrogen. The proposed system, that is conceived as refit option for an existing anaerobic digester plant in which the biomass is converted to biogas, consists of: i) a fuel processing unit, ii) a power production unit based on the SOFC (Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) technology, iii) a hydrogen separation, compression and storage unit. The aim of this study is to define the operating conditions that allow optimizing the plant performances by applying the exergy analysis that is an appropriate technique to assess and rank the irreversibility sources in energy processes. Thus, the exergy analysis has been performed for both the overall plant and main plant components and the main contributors to the overall losses have been evaluated. Moreover, the first principle efficiency and the second principle efficiency have been estimated. Results have highlighted that the fuel processor (the Auto-Thermal Reforming reactor) is the main contributor to the global exergy destruction (9.74% of the input biogas exergy). In terms of overall system performance the plant has an exergetic efficiency of 53.1% (it is equal to 37.7% for the H2 production).

Being complex systematically, Knowledge Management (KM) has always been challenging in the healthcare industry (HCI) of developing countries like Pakistan due to gap in acquiring and implementing KM processes. Despite the fact that extensive data and related information is available, the Pakistani HCI has been facing a major challenge due to the absence of a sound and solid KM process framework. Hence, the existing healthcare information systems in Pakistan lack the ability to control and cater the diversified nature of new knowledge creation and innovation. Consequentially, it results in inefficient and ineffective organization of knowledge along with inability to properly utilize important resources that are used for decision making activities. In this study, the researchers present and suggest an integrated and inter-operable KM process framework that helps to streamline and integrate a KM process in a phased comportment that identifies, defines, analyzes, collects and manages knowledge along with its innovation, dissemination, sharing and storage in an appropriate way.

Recent technological advancements have given rise to the concept of hyper-connected smart cities being adopted around the world. These cities aspire to achieve better outcomes for citizens by improving the quality of service delivery, information sharing, and creating a sustainable environment. A smart city comprises of a network of interconnected devices also known as IoT (Internet of Things), which captures data and transmits it to a platform for analysis. This data covers a variety of information produced in large volumes also known as Big Data. From data capture to processing and storage, there are several stages where a breach in security and privacy could result in catastrophic impacts. Presently there is a gap in the centralization of knowledge to implement smart city services with a secure architecture. To bridge this gap, we present a framework that highlights challenges within the smart city applications and synthesizes the techniques feasible to solve them. Additionally, we analyze the impact of a potential breach on smart city applications and state-of-the-art architectures available. Furthermore, we identify the stakeholders who may have an interest in learning about the relationships between the significant aspects of a smart city. We demonstrate these relationships through force-directed network diagrams. They will help raise the awareness amongst the stakeholders for planning the development of a smart city. To complement our framework, we designed web-based interactive resources that are available from http://ausdigitech.com/smartcity/.
