Guest Editorial Special Issue on Smart City-Networks

Abstract:
The papers in this special section focus on the development of smart city networks. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in sustainable and smart cities. Increasingly, cities need more efficient water, transportation, and energy systems to address various challenges, including a growing population, environmental and economic sustainability, and resiliency to natural disasters and unpredictable events. Advanced technologies for data collection, information processing, and decision-making are being developed, accompanied by advances in technologies for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions reduction such as renewables, electric vehicles, space heating, and industrial processes; all together these form the foundation for smart city networks and provide the focus for this special issue.
