Abstract
More and more people live in big cities, today more than 50% of the world population. All these people have to deal with many things of daily life including food, water, energy, communication, and entertainment. Also, the disposal of garbage, sewage, or the growing traffic must be managed and organized while minimizing energy consumption and protect the environment. These activities require in the future a new kind of Internet of things sensor concepts and a stronger use of modern IT and communication technologies. This should lead to smart cities with innovative types of sensor data collection and processing systems which are able to make intelligent real-time decisions to manage assets and resources efficiently. There are many new tasks for state-of-the-art embedded systems within future sensors and measuring technology. Furthermore, we need a more and more obvious paradigm shift from centralized to decentralized, autonomous control with the goal of highly flexible environments and localized artificial intelligence.
