Smart cities are constructed by connecting the city's public infrastructure with city application systems and passing collected data through three layers, the perception layer, the network layer and the application layer. City application systems then use data to make better decisions when controlling different city infrastructures. The perception layer is where data is collected across the smart city using sensors. This data could be collected through sensors such as cameras, RFID, or GPS positioning. The perception layer sends data it collects using wireless transmissions to the network layer. The network layer is responsible for transporting collected data from the perception layer to the application layer. The network layer utilizes a city's communication infrastructure to send data meaning it can be intercepted by attackers and must be held responsible for keeping collected data and information private. The application layer is responsible for processing the data received from network layer. The application layer uses the data it processes to make decisions on how to control the city infrastructure based on the data it receives.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Su|first1=Kehua|last2=Li|first2=Jie|last3=Fu|first3=Hongbo|date=September 2011|title=Smart city and the applications|url=https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6066743|journal=2011 International Conference on Electronics, Communications and Control (ICECC)|pages=1028–1031|doi=10.1109/ICECC.2011.6066743|isbn=978-1-4577-0320-1|s2cid=44799646}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Zhao|first1=Kai|last2=Ge|first2=Lina|date=December 2013|title=A Survey on the Internet of Things Security|url=https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6746513|journal=2013 Ninth International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Security|pages=663–667|doi=10.1109/CIS.2013.145|isbn=978-1-4799-2549-0|s2cid=5271591}}</ref> ==Frameworks== The creation, integration, and adoption of smart city capabilities require a unique set of frameworks to realize the focus areas of opportunity and innovation central to smart city projects.

This can be done by determining the benefits of such an initiative. Study the community to know the citizens, the business's needs – know the citizens and the community's unique attributes, such as the age of the citizens, their education, hobbies, and attractions of the city. # Develop a smart city Policy: Develop a [[policy]] to drive the initiatives, where roles, responsibilities, objective, and goals, can be defined. Create plans and strategies on how the goals will be achieved. # Engage The Citizens: This can be done by engaging the citizens through the use of [[e-government]] initiatives, [[open data]], sport events, etc. In short, People, Processes, and Technology (PPT) are the three principles of the success of a smart city initiative. Cities must study their citizens and communities, know the processes, business drivers, create policies, and objectives to meet the citizens' needs. Then, technology can be implemented to meet the citizens' need, in order to improve the quality of life and create real economic opportunities. This requires a holistic customized approach that accounts for city cultures, long-term city planning, and local regulations.<blockquote>"Whether to improve security, resiliency, sustainability, traffic congestion, public safety, or city services, each community may have different reasons for wanting to be smart. But all smart communities share common attributes—and they all are powered by smart connections and by our industry's smarter energy infrastructure. A [[smart grid]] is the foundational piece in building a smart community." – Pat Vincent-Collawn, chairman of the [[Edison Electric Institute]] and president and CEO of [[PNM Resources]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://dailyenergyinsider.com/featured/8322-eei-chairman-pledges-collaborate-communities-powering-technology-support-smart-cities/|title=EEI chairman pledges to collaborate with communities on powering technology to support smart cities|last=Carey|first=Liz|date=2017-10-06|work=Daily Energy Insider|access-date=2017-10-10|language=en-US|archive-date=25 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190225204921/https://dailyenergyinsider.com/featured/8322-eei-chairman-pledges-collaborate-communities-powering-technology-support-smart-cities/|url-status=live}}</ref></blockquote> == History == The idea and existence of smart cities is relatively new.

Smart cities are constructed by connecting the city's public infrastructure with city application systems and passing collected data through three layers, the perception layer, the network layer and the application layer. City application systems then use data to make better decisions when controlling different city infrastructures. The perception layer is where data is collected across the smart city using sensors. This data could be collected through sensors such as cameras, RFID, or GPS positioning. The perception layer sends data it collects using wireless transmissions to the network layer. The network layer is responsible for transporting collected data from the perception layer to the application layer. The network layer utilizes a city's communication infrastructure to send data meaning it can be intercepted by attackers and must be held responsible for keeping collected data and information private. The application layer is responsible for processing the data received from network layer. The application layer uses the data it processes to make decisions on how to control the city infrastructure based on the data it receives.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Su|first1=Kehua|last2=Li|first2=Jie|last3=Fu|first3=Hongbo|date=September 2011|title=Smart city and the applications|url=https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6066743|journal=2011 International Conference on Electronics, Communications and Control (ICECC)|pages=1028–1031|doi=10.1109/ICECC.2011.6066743|isbn=978-1-4577-0320-1|s2cid=44799646}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Zhao|first1=Kai|last2=Ge|first2=Lina|date=December 2013|title=A Survey on the Internet of Things Security|url=https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6746513|journal=2013 Ninth International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Security|pages=663–667|doi=10.1109/CIS.2013.145|isbn=978-1-4799-2549-0|s2cid=5271591}}</ref> - -==Frameworks== -The creation, integration, and adoption of smart city capabilities require a unique set of frameworks to realize the focus areas of opportunity and innovation central to smart city projects.

Again Moser<ref name="Brent"/> explained that "building and planning a smart community seeks for smart growth"; smart growth is essential for the partnership between citizen and institutional organizations to react to worsening trends in daily issues like traffic congestion, [[school overcrowding]] and air pollution. - -Technological propagation is not an end in itself, but a means to reinventing cities for a new economy and society.<ref name=":12"/><ref name="Eger"/> Smart city initiatives require co-ordination and support from the city government and other governing bodies for their success.

This can be done by determining the benefits of such an initiative. Study the community to know the citizens, the business's needs – know the citizens and the community's unique attributes, such as the age of the citizens, their education, hobbies, and attractions of the city. -# Develop a smart city Policy: Develop a [[policy]] to drive the initiatives, where roles, responsibilities, objective, and goals, can be defined. Create plans and strategies on how the goals will be achieved. -# Engage The Citizens: This can be done by engaging the citizens through the use of [[e-government]] initiatives, [[open data]], sport events, etc. - -In short, People, Processes, and Technology (PPT) are the three principles of the success of a smart city initiative. Cities must study their citizens and communities, know the processes, business drivers, create policies, and objectives to meet the citizens' needs. Then, technology can be implemented to meet the citizens' need, in order to improve the quality of life and create real economic opportunities. This requires a holistic customized approach that accounts for city cultures, long-term city planning, and local regulations.<blockquote>"Whether to improve security, resiliency, sustainability, traffic congestion, public safety, or city services, each community may have different reasons for wanting to be smart. But all smart communities share common attributes—and they all are powered by smart connections and by our industry's smarter energy infrastructure. A [[smart grid]] is the foundational piece in building a smart community." – Pat Vincent-Collawn, chairman of the [[Edison Electric Institute]] and president and CEO of [[PNM Resources]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://dailyenergyinsider.com/featured/8322-eei-chairman-pledges-collaborate-communities-powering-technology-support-smart-cities/|title=EEI chairman pledges to collaborate with communities on powering technology to support smart cities|last=Carey|first=Liz|date=2017-10-06|work=Daily Energy Insider|access-date=2017-10-10|language=en-US|archive-date=25 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190225204921/https://dailyenergyinsider.com/featured/8322-eei-chairman-pledges-collaborate-communities-powering-technology-support-smart-cities/|url-status=live}}</ref></blockquote> - -== History == -The idea and existence of smart cities is relatively new.
