As new technologies enter cities, more population relocate to cities from underdeveloped parts
of a state. The increase in population attracts more technology investors into the cities which in turn attract
more people into the cities. This is a cumulative process which has raised issues of scarcity of resources and
lack of security among the increased population in the urban areas. The concept of Smart cities is viewed as a
solution to this problem thus enhancing the quality of existing public services. Internet of Things (IoT) is an
approach to build smart cities by interconnecting almost everything and increasing transparency in services.
IoT follows heterogeneous network architecture with application specific protocols. This paper presents the
importance of smart cities and IoT approach towards achieving the smartness.
The document discusses smart cities in India. It begins by defining what a smart city is, noting that smart cities aim to integrate technology and sustainability to improve efficiency. It then discusses why smart cities are needed, as 60% of the world's population is expected to live in cities by 2030, placing strain on resources. Key features of smart cities include innovations using internet of things for more efficient water and energy systems and improved public safety. The document also discusses India's smart cities mission to develop 100 smart cities and improve quality of life through technology and sustainability. It provides examples of priority areas for Bhubaneswar and Nashik and concludes by noting the potential for smart cities to reduce inequality in India.
What is Smart Cities? The Concept of Smart Cities, What are Smart Governance, Smart Citizen, Smart Energy, Smart Technology, Smart Infrastructure, Smart Mobility, Smart Building and Smart Healthcare
This document discusses the concept of smart cities and reviews smart city development. It begins by defining smart cities and their relationship to concepts like digital cities and sustainable cities. It then discusses key components of smart cities like internet of things technologies, sensor networks, and cloud computing. The document outlines a generic smart city architecture and identifies six main dimensions that characterize smart cities: smart economy, people, governance, mobility, environment, and living. It also discusses challenges in applying smart city strategies to existing cities and how data now plays a central role in urban governance and economic development in smart cities.
This document discusses funding, financing, and implementing smart city projects. It provides an overview of challenges cities face, the evolution of smart city initiatives, and examples of smart city systems. It also covers stakeholders in smart city projects, financing tools and strategies for making projects bankable, data monetization opportunities, and combining different financing options based on project components and durations. The key challenges for cities are selecting the right financing tools and bringing together stakeholders and funding sources for complex, long-term smart city undertakings.
Smart cities use information and communication technologies to efficiently manage resources and improve services. There are typically three generations of smart cities - technology driven, technology enabled, and citizen co-creation. Key elements include economic development, infrastructure, transportation, energy efficiency, and social services. Smart cities collect data, analyze it, communicate information, and take action. Common smart city technologies are the internet of things, APIs, AI, cloud computing, and machine learning. While smart cities provide benefits like improved decision making and quality of life, they also face challenges of cost, connectivity, data security, and technological gaps between smart and non-smart cities.
The need is a flexible, scalable, secure and governed platform that will provide the decision-makers with a unified platform to track, analyze and manage smart devices.

A study on disruptive technologies toward smart cities governanceBOHRInternationalJou1
Digital technology is employed to enhance decision-making, streamline service delivery, and optimize
administrative processes within the government. Its purpose is to enhance the efficacy, efficiency, and transparency
of governance. In smart cities, smart governance plays a vital role in augmenting the efficiency and effectiveness
of municipal services while promoting transparency and citizen accountability. In our study, we have studied the
disruptive technologies in smart cities governance from a theoretical standpoint. We have focused on the primary
disruptive technologies utilized in the governance of smart cities—Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of
Things, Big Data, and 3D Printing—and we understand how each of these technologies is employed in the
growth of smart cities. We also examined citizen awareness of the use and deployment of these technologies
as part of our study. As part of our study, we also analyzed how aware citizens were of the use and deployment
of these technologies. When compared with other applications of various technologies, our analysis finds that
Big Data is the most extensively employed technology in the construction of smart cities. This article will
come to the conclusion that these technologies have a substantial impact on the growth of smart cities and
its governance.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

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).
