The interplay between smart urban technologies and city development
is a relatively uncharted territory. Technology and the City aims
to fill that gap, exploring the growing importance of smart
technologies and systems in contemporary cities, and providing an
in-depth understanding of both theoretical and practical aspects of
smart urban technology adoption, and its implications for our
cities. Beginning with an elaboration of the historical
significance of technologies in economic growth, social progress
and urban development, Yigitcanlar introduces the most prominent
smart urban information technologies. The book showcases
significant smart city practices from across the globe that uses
smart urban technologies and systems most effectively. It explores
the role of these technologies and asks how they can be adopted
into the planning, development and management processes of cities
for sustainable urban futures. This pioneering volume contributes
to the conceptualisation and practice of smart technology and
system adoption in our cities by disseminating both conceptual and
empirical research findings with real-world best practice
applications. With a multidisciplinary approach to themes of
technology and urban development, this book is a key reference
source for scholars, practitioners, consultants, city officials,
policymakers and urban technology enthusiasts.
