Professor Isam SHAHROUR
What could we learn from Smart city projects and demonstrators?
The smart city concept meets a large concern around the world. This concept aims at the construction of a comprehensive digital management system of improving of cities that improves the efficiency and security and quality of life in cities as well as the involvement of citizens in the sustainable development of the cities. The implementation of this concept is complex, because it requires a huge transformation of cities including the city governance as well as the transformation of the urban infrastructures in “Smart Infrastructures”.
Some smart city projects and smart city demonstrators have been launched since several years. This conference will present lessons learned from these projects, with focus on large scale demonstrator “SunRise Smart City” conducted in France.
