Sustainable smart city IoT applications: Heat and electricity management & Eco-conscious cruise control for public transportation
Abstract
In a world of multi-stakeholder information and assets provision on top of millions of real-time interacting and communicating things, systems based on Internet of Things (IoT) technologies aim at exploiting these assets in a resilient and sustainable way allowing them to reach their full potential. In this paper we present two innovative smart city IoT applications: the first one refers to heat and energy management, and aims at utilizing different resources (such as heat and electricity meters) in order to optimize use of energy in commercial and residential areas. The second application refers to cruise control for public transportation, and aims at utilizing different resources (such as environmental and traffic sensors) in order to provide driving recommendations that aim at eco efficiency. We also highlight the IoT challenges as well as potential enabling technologies that will allow for the realization of the proposed applications.

Smart cities of the future or smarter cities offer the potential of environmental and socio-economic development-more sustainable, livable, functional, safe, equitable, and transparent cities, and the renewal of urban centres as hubs of innovation and research.
“For supra-national states, national governments, and city officials, smart cities of the future or smarter cities offer the enticing potential of environmental and socio-economic development-more sustainable, livable, functional, safe, equitable, and transparent cities, and the renewal of urban centres as hubs of innovation and research (e.g., [5,16,20,23,84]).”

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.
