Abstract

Most of the cities are aspiring to become a so-called smart city world-wide. With the increasing urbanization across the globe, there is an urgent need to improve various services so that citizen can easily access to important information and life support services. Thus, the introduction of information and communication technologies and other technological innovations to cities coupled with effort to empower human capital in urban areas are crucially important ensuring that people in the cities have access to valuable information. This chapter, therefore, focuses on some of the advanced technologies currently being used to develop smart cities to promote sustainable developments and quality of life for people living in cities. The chapter also highlights various challenges that current technologies often encounter, and the solutions to overcome these challenges to build smart cities.
