Internet of things adoption is expanding at phenomenal phase. The concept of IOT is to embed sensors and transceivers into different devices which can then transmits data to each other and to cloud through Internet, building analytics to comprehend this data and use this understanding to find solution for everyday issues. New domains for IOT are being explored and one such is to use IOT in urbanization of cities. In the context has evolved the term Smart Cities. There are already cities like Amsterdam, Barcelona, Stockholm, New York which has implemented several aspects of Smart Cities and nations like Singapore and India are moving in that direction. It is expected by 2025 there will be 26 global smart cities. So what is a smart city
This publication presents a compilation of extended abstracts of VTT’s recent research on smart cities. The global challenge is to reduce environmental impact and carbon footprint. At the same time societal development needs to be addressed and people well-being must be in focus. Pressure is growing to reduce our environmental impact and there is a parallel compelling need for business to stay globally competitive. Investment and expenditure needs for improving energy efficiency, modernizing infrastructure and creating high quality living environments are enormous. Smart sustainability as a dominating driver of technology development can also be seen in the R&D portfolio of VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. A clear focus of our research for smart cities is sustainable city development, holistic energy systems, eco-efficient and intelligent buildings and districts as well as smart transport systems. In addition we focus on services, ICT and material technologies for improving smart city functions.

Recently, Smart Cities, Smart Urbanization conference had been organized by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MOHUA), in SURAT. • Launch of a ‘virtual hub for collaborations on urban transformation’ in partnership between the Smart Cities Mission and the World Economic Forum.
• Today in the Knowledge Economy and with the advancement of technologies and Rapid Sophistication of People in Urban Areas there is a need to make cities SMART to conserve Energy and resources for a long period of time. So one initiative in which San Carlos Calif has taken an initiative that with the help of Mobile Apps along with Sensors to implement Smart Parking Solutions they can keep a track of Parking Space nearby the Place or Shop where they want to track their Vehicle.
• Another way is that our cities are connecting hospitals to expand medical services via TELEMEDICINE this program help the patients to avoid long journeys and wait time and with the help of internet Doctor can diagnose Patients Problem.
• SMART Countries of Asia has been using Renewable Resources as in India there is a scarcity of resources. So India has to use renewable sources of energy. we have to use Solar cookers and Solar heaters which reduces our Consumption of LPG and increases our dependence on Solar Power Plants to generate Electricity.
• SMART Education which is the signal of Development and growth prospects in the country by using ICT Methods as India has to use Smart Technology Methods as Said By SAMSUNG to take an Initiative from the Secondary Schools so that their Brain get sharped from the very first day to compete and survive in this competitive world and for getting admission in reputed universities.
• SMART Cities must have Public Transport facility available at short distances in the form of Buses and Metros or even rapid metros so that People avoid using their own vehicles to go for any domestic work and even office work •
In his budget speech, Union Finance Minister Arjun Jaitley
said that “unless new cities are developed to accommodate
the burgeoning number of people, the existing cities would
soon become unliveable.” Modi wants to build over a 100
smart cities to deal with the rapidly increasing urbanisation,
traffic congestion and decreasing quality of people’s lives
and the environment. Fiscal constraints demand diligence
and that global ‘smart solutions’ be tailored to suit this
emerging economy where even basic amenities are hard to
come by for millions.
Challenges opportunities and way forward in making indian cities and citizens...ANIRBAN CHOUDHURY
This was presented by me during Panel Discussions on Captioned Topic during IoT India Congress – 2016 Bangalore, on 8th September 2016.
http://theiet.in/The_IET_announces_Indias_largest_conclave_on_the_Internet_of_Things%E2%80%93IoT_India_Congress_2016
It was a coincidence that during panel discussions I came across team from Deloitte and C44, instrumental in preparation of NTK's winning Smart City Proposal. For me it was one of the happiest moment for being in the same panel with current mentors, as I was involved with the NTK project from pre-takeoff to maturity stage.
In the captioned presentation I have highlighted the fact that NTK was designed with resiliant features, especially AA-1 of NTK and also how the AA-1D was made LEED Traditional Neighborhood Design compliant more than 1/2 a decade before it was formalized by USGBC, NRF & CNU. I have highlighted the salient features namely
(1) hierarchy of built & open spaces; habitats starting from neighborhoods- community -Towns with distinct boundary have been planned; socio-economic infrastructure has been planned in early 2000 that even fulfill the changed requirements of NBC2005 and UDPFI 2015. ;
(2) Though the city has been planned for inclusion of all class, creed & castes of the society, AA-1D has been designed for a well-diversified population (housing option) such that the SIMPSON Diversity index > 0.75.
(3) The hierarchy of roads and surface drainage were designed in such a way that it's having an inversely proportional relationship.
All the above resilience features were designed and built in the early 2000, 1/2 decade before Draft LEED TND of USGBC was published after 2005.
The structure of AA1D was designed to be resilient as it was meant to promote (a) Compact densification; (b) Scaling of a Traditional neighbourhood; (c) Fine Grain diversity
I have also highlighted the fact that what we have done in (terms of TND design) more than 1.5 decades back in the year 2000-01, is being replicated now as a Brownfeild Retrofit by Global Smart City Barcelona through creation of SMART SUPER BLOCKS ( we were ahead of time).
Also refer to linked-in posting " GREENFIELD URBAN RETROFIT - INSPIRED BY TRADITIONAL NEIGHBORHOOD DESIGN & URBAN PATTERN" for the story behind Smart Retrofit done by me for Action Area 1D in the year 2001.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
