Smart cities use data-driven technologies to improve sustainability, quality of life, and urban infrastructure. Smart cities use data from IoT and linked devices to optimize resource management, traffic, and sustainability. Smart grids, intelligent transportation systems, sensors, and analytics monitor air quality and waste management. E-governance, smart healthcare, and citizen involvement improve public services in smart cities. Smart cities use data and technology to make cities more livable, sustainable, and sophisticated.

Cities built on the basics of interconnected services and infrastructures using state-of-the-art information and communication technologies and electronics to automate services, improve quality of life, increase the efficiency of public activities, and provide digital connectivity can be termed “smart cities.” The primary objective of smart cities is to connect and integrate every possible service and sector, such as utilities, energy, healthcare, transportation, governance, and security, onto digital platforms. This course, offered with the endorsement of the IEEE Communications Society, aims to provide a clearer picture of the transformation of cities into smart cities, taking into account various levels of services, including primary, secondary, and tertiary, in areas such as healthcare systems, transportation, energy distribution, and secured data communication based on privacy, safety, security, and trust.
