Designing Next Generation Smart City Initiatives:Harnessing Findings And Les...Edward Curry
The proliferation of “Smart Cities” initiatives around the world is part of the strategic response by governments to the challenges and opportunities of increasing urbanization and the rise of cities as the nexus of societal development. As a framework for urban transformation, Smart City initiatives aim to harness Information and Communication Technologies and Knowledge Infrastructures for economic regeneration, social cohesion, better city administration and infrastructure management. However, experiences from earlier Smart City initiatives have revealed several technical, management and governance challenges arising from the inherent nature of a Smart City as a complex “Socio- technical System of Systems”. While these early lessons are informing modest objectives for planned Smart Cities programs, no rigorous developed framework based on careful analysis of existing initiatives is available to guide policymakers, practitioners, and other Smart City stakeholders. In response to this need, this paper presents a “Smart City Initiative Design (SCID) Framework” grounded in the findings from the analysis of ten major Smart Cities programs from Netherlands, Sweden, Malta, United Arab Emirates, Portugal, Singapore, Brazil, South Korea, China and Japan. The findings provide a design space for the objectives, implementation options, strategies, and the enabling institutional and governance mechanisms for Smart City initiatives.

Creating Smarter Cities 2011 - 11 - Richard Hanley - Research and technical d...Smart Cities Project
My presentation will explain why the board of the Journal of Urban Technology was interested in producing a focus issue on the SmartCities Project. In the US, the term “smart city” has been appropriated by transnational corporations. Their definition of that term, thus, gets traction internationally. Perhaps no corporation’s smart city campaign is bigger than IBM’s with its Smart Planet effort that focuses on cities. That corporation takes a systems approach to the operation of cities. This entails using sensor technologies to gather data, using new analytic approaches to analyze the data, modeling that data, and then managing a client city’s systems based on those models. The stated goals of the program are urban efficiency and global sustainability. Sustainability and efficiency are also the selling points of the smart cities visions of other corporations such as Siemens and Cisco. While the papers in the focus issue of JUT do not argue that cities should be inefficient or unsustainable, they offer an additional task for the new technologies that make smart cities possible—that task is to offer innovative means for citizens to learn about, and participate in, the democratic operation of their government. It is this detailing of innovative means that can now be used to increase democratic participation in the creation and use of government services and government operation that makes this focus issue an important contribution to the international conversation on smart cities and the technologies that enable them.
Creating Smarter Cities 2011 - 12 - Mark Deakin - The Triple Helix of Smart C...Smart Cities Project
Mark's presentation demonstrates how the Triple Helix model enables us to study the knowledge base of an urban economy in terms of civil society’s support for the evolution of cities as key components of innovation systems. It argues that cities can be considered as densities in networks among three relevant dynamics: the intellectual capital of universities, industry of wealth creation and their participation in the democratic government of civil society. It goes on to suggest the effects of these interactions generate dynamic spaces within cities where knowledge can be exploited to bootstrap the technology of regional innovation systems. Dynamic spaces, this paper suggests, that can best be explored through the all-pervasive technologies of information-based communications (ICTs) and those which are currently being exploited to generate the notion of “smart cities,” as the knowledge base of regional innovation systems.

The Edinburgh and its surrounding area are well served by an efficient bus network. The City of Edinburgh Council (CEC) have worked with
the locally owned bus company (Lothian Buses) and a system supplier (INEO Systrans) to deliver real-time information to meet passengers’ needs, initially through bus-stop displays and then a website. This case study described how it was later extended to smartphone users through a cooperative and flexible approach with two individuals who had developed Apps for iPhone and Android phones.
This service is currently being upgraded in the light of experience over the first three years’ operation to include a better user interface, with more consideration for accessibility issues, better capacity and a more efficient and controlled route for accessing the data through smar tphones.
This is one of two case studies showing the different approaches taken by the City of Edinburgh Council (CEC) in developing content and services aimed at users of smartphones and other mobile devices. The second case study describes the approach taken by the Library and Information Services department of the City of Edinburgh Council to work with commercial App developers to reach the users of mobile devices as part of a wide-ranging social media and digital communication strategy.

This was extended to smartphone users through a cooperative and flexible approach to working with two individuals who had chosen to develop Apps for iPhone and Android phones.
Citizens and businesses have many different ways of contacting municipalities for services, and many municipalities allow customers to use email as a contact channel. However many municipalities often find that they have difficulties in managing the email channel, with customers contacting a range of official and unofficial email addresses, and have difficulties in measuring how successful/efficient/appropriate email is for service delivery and as a point of customer contact.
This report illustrates how the municipality of Groningen has transformed its email handling methods and processes in the context of a wider multi-channel strategy to deliver better and more effective services to its citizens.
This report provides an overview of best practices in the use and handling of email by municipalities, shares lessons from Groningen’s experience in transforming email handling through a case study, and gives an insight into the complexities and uses of the email channel. A glossary and links to further reading and resources are also included.
Smart Cities- Impact of web accessibility on e-service designSmart Cities Project
This report gives some background information about web accessibility
– an approach to designing web sites, e-applications and services so
that they work well for people with disabilities. It covers information about what accessibility means, what regulations there are in the different North Sea Region countries; suggests how to set up an accessibility project and provides guidelines and links to other resources.
This report discusses methods and approaches municipalities and governments can use for evaluating e-services, both prior to their design and implementation and to assess their success following deployment. It presents a new evaluation model for e-services that is developed from models currently used in government and the research community.
GIS systems enable the electronic management of spatial data and facilitate its visualisation; they are specialised forms of information systems that are conceived solely for use with spatial data. Their purpose is the collection, modelling, storage, manipulation, analysis, retrieval and presentation of geodata. During the Smart Cities Project we examined the geobased services that were being used by the project’s six municipal partners. This guide provides a detailed review of the systems that are being used by two of these partners – the City of Edinburgh Council in Scotland, and Kristiansand Kommune in Norway – who had the most advanced geobased infrastructures in the Smart Cities partnership.
ICTarchitecture - supporting service delivery in Smart CitiesSmart Cities Project
Smart Cities has produced two publications about I-architecture and its role in the development and support of e-services. This publication is written for municipal business managers, and managers and employees of ICT departments in local government. It complements the second, more technical
and theoretical architecture publication which discusses various ICT architecture concepts and the
value that an ICT architecture brings to an organisation.
Creating Smarter Cities - Lessons from the Smart Cites ProjectSmart Cities Project
Cities must be dedicated to meeting their demands and needs, and continuously improving the services they deliver. The smartest cities and towns in Europe are discovering how to use technology and redesign internal operational procedures to deliver more efficient and effective services to their customers.
Some municipalities may have to reengineer their business processes, some may choose to centralise their customer service activities. Sometimes they may have to think more strategically about the channels they use for customer interactions. Perhaps the city needs a strict structure, or architecture, for its information and communication systems.
Perhaps they may decide to collect, combine and analyse data about their customers to
reveal new insights into their needs and behaviours.
Whatever changes a municipality must make, customer-centricity – the true essence of
‘smart’ – comes down to people. Technology is a means to an end, but a clever new e-service
will all but fail if people don’t like it or won’t use it.
In this booklet we give you our whistle-stop tour of our main findings and conclusions. You
may already be an expert with many ideas and experience in this field. Or you may find our
ideas new, exciting and thought provoking. Wherever your municipality finds itself on the path
to customer-centricity we hope that this publication will inspire you on your journey and point
you to places – people and publications – where you can find out more.

The Flemish Government and a host of European local government partner organisations worked together by identifying the top things that national and EU decision makers can do to better support local eGovernment. The ‘Malmo Vision’ was still hardly translated down to the on-the-ground, local level. The Citadel Statement addressed this short-coming by better understanding why local communities are finding it challenging to implement eGovernment in an innovative, cost-effective and efficient manner. In the short period the Statement got a strong support from the main organizations of municipalities. A number of concrete projects were launched in the spirit of the Statement. And we can also notice a stronger commitment from the EU itself to support Local Egovernment. But there’s still a lot to do.

3. Major contemporary city challenges
Cities in developed countries
A public consultation on the priorities of European urban and
regional policy has identified three major urban and regional
objectives for the coming years (European Commission 2008).
Competitiveness will continue to be at the heart of European
regional policy, sustained by research, innovation and upgrading
of skills, which altogether drive towards a knowledge economy.
Active labour markets which sustain employment and reduce
the risk of poverty are also a high priority; to a large degree
poverty is a consequence of job losses.
The third objective is environmental sustainability; coupled
with the need to save energy, use alternative energy sources,
ensure lower CO2 emissions, reduce the carbon footprint of cities
and buildings, and sustain living ecosystems.

5. Smart cities addressing city challenges
Smart / intelligent cities are expected to contribute to these
challenges and provide more efficient solutions:
-Sustain the knowledge economy in developed countries
-Offer solutions to rapid urbanisation in developing countries
The questions are:
How they do it?
Which resources smart cities mobilize to address city challenges?
Which processes enable the intelligence of cities to emerge?
It becomes urgent to understand the sources and drivers of city
intelligence that assure a higher efficiency in addressing wicked
problems of contemporary urban agglomerations.

6. Key concept: Spatial intelligence of cities
Spatial intelligence of cities refers to informational and cognitive
processes - such as information collection and processing, real-
time alert, forecasting, learning, collective intelligence,
distributed problem solving - which characterize "intelligent" or
"smart" cities.
The concept allows unifying those of intelligent city and smart city
under a common field of study focusing on their fundamental cognitive
processes.
Emphasis on the "spatial" dimension denotes that urban space and
the agglomeration are preconditions of this form of intelligence.
The concept refers also to the combined deployment of ICTs,
institutional settings for knowledge and innovation, and physical
infrastructure of cities to increase the problem-solving capability of a
community.

27. IBM instrumentation intelligence
The IBM smart cities concept: (1)
interconnected, (2) instrumented, and (3)
intelligent.
Interconnection means that different parts
of a core system can be joined and
communicate with each other, turning data
into information.
Instrumentation of a city’s system means
that the workings of that system are turned
into data points and the system is made
measurable with instruments and smart
meters.
Intelligence refers to the ability to use the
information to model patterns of behaviour,
develop predictive models of likely outcomes
and translate them into real knowledge,
allowing better decision making and informed
actions
