Summary

Introduction

Increased urban sprawl associated with social, environmental, and economic effects, has led to pollution, environmental destruction, poor land use management, unsuitable urban design. These problems have caused public disruption, ineffectual movement, transportation congestion, general well-being, and increase health risks. All these city problems are related to city infrastructures facing technical and physical issues (Colldahl et al, 2013; Bibri & Krogstie 2017). There is increasing pressure in the way in which cities organize and operate their critical infrastructure, human services, ecosystem services, and administration due to severe challenges related to having a sustainable city (Lovell & Taylor, 2013, Connolly et al, 2014, Bibri & Krogstie, 2017)
