The Smart-X Model for Smart Cities

摘要

In the recent years due to focus of the governments across the world, there has been plethora of research focusing on Smart cities. In this paper, we have tried to present the definitions and parameters of smart cities given by several researchers. Also information collected from different countries highlighting the major features that are desirable in a smart city has been illustrated. We have also proposed a comprehensive Smart-X model which combines the features suggested by different researches and across different countries that can be incorporated in a smart city. The 'X' in Smart-X varies from smart living, smart economy to smart privacy.
