Abstract

This paper presents definitions of the ‘Smart City’ that have been discussed academically and examines different implementations of the smart city in the United States and some European countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany, and Far East countries such as Japan, South Korea, and Singapore. With the emergence of many global problems such as climate change, transportations, high populations, limited resources of food and medicine, all developed countries must amalgamate their efforts and cooperate to find an ultimate smart city, considering the most appropriate standards for constructing such a city. This paper also presents a comparison of different implementations of the smart city and various initiatives which have been undertaken by different countries to solve worldwide problems.
