A presentation conducted by Dr Kang-Soo Kim, Executive Director, Korean Development Institute (KDI), Republic of Korea. Presented on Wednesday the 2nd of October 2013.
Infrastructure development has played an important role in achieving a high rate of economic growth and improving
the quality of life for Koreans. Empirical studies show this to be true, and that such developments have produced a high rate of economic return. This presentation chronologically reviews the infrastructure development in Korea and focuses on how the transport infrastructure development plan was linked to the country’s economic development plan. In particular, this presentation will provide insights on measures to tackle the lack of available resources for the infrastructure development. For example,
earmarked transport taxes, creation of special accounts and PPPs, which enhance Korean government’s fiscal flexibility will be introduced. This presentation will also
provide some experiences and lessons focusing on the infrastructure planning and financing for the infrastructure development.

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
From “Dumb” To “Smart” Ingrediënts for a Smart CityErik Van Der Zee
More and more cities in the world want to become a SMART city. But what is actually a smart city? How do I transform a city in a smart city? And what is the relationship between the smart city concept and other concepts like Internet of Things and Big Data? Erik van der Zee tries to answer these questions during this session. He also pays attention to the Geonovum pilot Making Sense for Society. This pilot started on 3rd April 2014 and comprises subjects like sensors, actuators, standards, real-time data, privacy, governance and applications related to smart cities.
Presentation at the Government and ICT fair on 9th April 2014.
My presentation illustrates an on-going study in the field of Smart cities’ evaluation. The analysis starts from a revised notion of triple helix considering that Civil society plays a prominent role toward the realization of sustainable development in cities (Etzkowitz and Zhou, 2006).
In order to assess the connections between Smart city development and this institutionalization of the Triple Helix, an Analytic Network Process model has been developed. This interrelated model is used for investigating the relations between smart cities components (smart governance; smart economy; smart people; smart living; smart environment), actors (Universities, Government, Industry and Civil Society ) and policy visions derived from the “Urban Europe” Joint Programme Initiatives, i.e. strategies to which the smart cities are moving to (Connected City, Entrepreneurial City, Liveable City and Pioneer City).
Concept note on 100 Indian smart citiesPhani Mohan K
The 35-page blue print includes various suggestions on operational procedures, approval process for proposals, nature and extent of Central Government support on financing, capacity building, which would be useful for further discussions.
It outlines in detail about the several facilities that would be developed in smart cities including reliable utility services,efficient social infrastructure and a smart transport system, which would restrict the travel time within the city to 30 to 45 minutes, 100 per cent coverage of road network with storm water drainage network and 100 per cent access to toilets.
All smart cities will need to have a master plan valid for the next 10 years in addition to having digitised spatial maps, regularly updated open data platforms, amongst other benchmarks specified in the Annexures of the concept note.
Physical infrastructure such as the urban mobility system, the housing stock, energy system, water supply system, drainage system, solid waste management and sewerage system etc will have to be integrated through the use of geospatial technology.
Universal access to electricity and water 24 X 7 will be a given.
The municipal offices will have to be fully automated so that citizens have the ability to seek and the municipal offices the ability to deliver services in real time, through IT based facilities.
In terms of social infrastructure, good and high quality education, healthcare and entertainment services are essential.
Adoption of energy-efficient and environmentally benign practices in the use of building material, transport system, sewerage and water supply systems, street lighting, air-conditioning systems and energy consumption in buildings will be non-negotiable.
The document also states that a city having a population of up to 40 lakh or more, cities of tourist and religious importance and select cities which have a population of less than 10 lakh and all state and union territory capitals will get an opportunity to nominate a satellite city for the “Smart City” project.
“In Delhi, it is being proposed that DDA will develop a new smart city through the land pooling scheme as a demonstratively and the NDMC area may be considered for demonstrating all the components of smart cities,” the note says.
While a strong citizen participation in decision-making will be crucial for smart cities, a principle of ‘governance by incentives rather than governance by enforcement’ has to be adopted.
A national urbanization policy would be crucial for guiding the national government financial support to smart cities.
The release of concept note is followed by a National Conclave of States and Union Territories, which is being held on Friday, September 12 to invite suggestions on the blue print.
Chapter 3 introduction to the smart city concept, AUST 2015Isam Shahrour
This lecture presents the concept of the smart city with particular focus on the use of the digital technology and collective governance. It also presents the data collection, analysis and use in the management of the City and the methodology to be followed for the implementation of the Smart City concept.

Smart City and Smart Government : Strategy, Model, and Cases of KoreaJong-Sung Hwang
Presentation file by Jong-Sung Hwang on Smart City and Smart Government. It was revised from an original presentation at FTTH New Zealand conference in May 2013. It explains different approaches to Smart City and the relationship between Smart City and Smart Government.
India’s recent stand on Smart City Development and involvement of various high income countries; initiates the talk of ideal variables for smart city evolution by our own standards. With a vision of Urban Governance for general livability, it becomes imperative to study these parameters and ensure the evolution of our own concept of a Smart City. Our spatial planning models based on unique factors such as Human Diversity, Physical-Social networks and ICT impact on urban fabric, City resilience, etc. make it all the more interesting to evolve a blueprint for Planning a Smart City.
The paper centers the infrastructural developments for the Smart Urban Development in India. The research helps us arrive at a general line of action for Urban Planning implications catering to the Infrastructure Sector, amongst others; thus affecting environmental, social and economic structure significantly. The study further finds the scope of progress, encouraged from various government policies for successful implementation of Smart City Development. It also allows a peek into future scenario of improvements and deliberations particular to Indian standards in consideration with the scenario of other countries.
