Abstract

A smart city is described as far from being an unambiguous concept, changing with each iteration of a much smarter version of residents living or economic activity. However, in recent years the governments around the world have been trying hard to provide the most advanced form of life to residents that their resources can afford. This means that there is no pre-defined definition and any city that is deemed to provide value to its citizens as well as generate benefit for the global society shall be considered smart. The motive of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review on Blockchain technology based smart city and enterprises their motivation, challenges and applications, in order to overcome their services, and production costs. This chapter will further explain about use cases of Blockchain technology for smart city application.
