The concept of "smart city" and peculiarities of its realization

Abstract

Today, forums devoted to the topic of state and municipal administration or information and communication technologies rarely do without considering the issue of implementing the concept of a “smart city”. The concept of a "smart city" is interpreted broadly and in different ways. However, in all the approaches considered, the main role is assigned to information and telecommunication technologies, which help to most effectively ensure the current processes of urban life through the involvement of authorities, citizens and business.
