Digital Dimension of Smart City: Critical Analysis
Open accessAbstract
The analyses of publications show unclear differences between the definition of a digital city and a smart city. The critical analysis of references allows us to define the role of a digital dimension of a smart city. A deeper analysis of the concept of smart social systems shows that many social systems can be smart without necessarily basing their activities on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). That is affirmed by the model of Jucevičius et al. (2013), where the social system is investigated taking into account its relationship with the environment. The paper considers the importance of a digital platform for the smart social systems of the city. Theoretical considerations have been used to develop a conceptual model for evaluation of the importance of a digital dimension for a smart city.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
