Summary
Now-a-days, over three-quarters of the world‟s population lives in urban areas. It is noticed that the population growth in urban areas is higher than in rural areas. The concept of developing smart communities is becoming more desirable as the use of technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) can help in solving a variety of problems in coexisting societies. It refers to combining intelligence, political strategy, and infrastructure to create holistic urban services. Several aspects can aid in developing a Smart City, some of these aspects are: “Smart Mobility”, “Smart Living”, “Smart Economy” and many more that, when combined and strategized, can translate the practical meaning of having environmentally friendly, sustainable and smart city [2].
