Surveying the current state-of-the-art research in the field, the book delves deeply into key smart city developments such as health and well-being, transportation, safety, energy, environment and sustainability. In addition, the book focuses on the role of IoT cloud computing and big data, specifically in smart city development. Users will find a unique, overarching perspective that ties together these concepts based on collective intelligence, a concept for quantifying mass activity familiar to many social science and life science researchers.
Sections explore how group decision-making emerges from the consensus of the collective, collaborative and competitive activities of many individuals, along with future perspectives.
- Provides collective intelligence-based solutions to enhance smart city well-being
- Recommends strategies to ensure smart city sustainability and optimization, including smart transportation
- Considers cloud-based data processing approaches for managing data collected from smart city applications
- Uses case studies to shows successful application in a variety of smart city contexts
