Abstract
AbstractSmart cities are one of the consequences of digital transformation, and there have been many attempts to assess the smartness of cities with various frameworks. Among these frameworks, smart city maturity models (SCMMs) evaluate the existing conditions of cities and provide guidelines for progressing through the subsequent stages of maturity. However, most maturity models follow the instructions of the first model, published by the International Data Corporation, and there are many similarities across the models. These maturity models have advantages and disadvantages, while previous studies have not addressed the differences. Therefore, this article fills this knowledge gap by systematically reviewing the existing SCMMs. The findings suggest that some trending topics, such as resiliency concerning global pandemics and cultural aspects are neglected in SCMMs. Moreover, the validation techniques of the models are not rational. Finally, given the theoretical nature of most models, they cannot be applied to multiple regions.This article is categorized under: Fundamental Concepts of Data and Knowledge > Big Data Mining Technologies > Artificial Intelligence Technologies > Machine Learning
