Internet of Thing and smart city: State of the art and future trends

Abstract

Fast growing of cities, urban places, and population presents major challenges in our daily lives. Finding proper solution from different perspectives of cities became a concern by both researchers and industries concern. Smart city (SC) is the answer to overcome this issue. Internet of thing (IoT) is a crucial part of SC which has a tremendous impact on all the cities’ sectors such as governance, health care, education, environment, and transportation. This paper provides a state of the art on Internet of thing (IoT)-based smart city (SC) from platform, architecture, application domain, and technology perspectives, also it concludes the relations between different technologies used in developing smart cities. Challenges and future trends of SC based on IoT will be discussed. As this research conducts, the SC solution based on IoT still confronts many challenges and problems which required further researches.
