“…The social aspect has been addressed mainly considering the impacts on the community's health and safety [28] and the participation of society [14]. Considering that technical solutions are those that, in practice, incorporate aspects of sustainability in the built infrastructure, several studies have also been developed with this objective [2,13], including addressing the professional aspects [43], since sustainability, it has been a transversal theme to the areas of knowledge and increasingly present in professional activities.…”

“…The sewage system has aroused the interest of researchers, mainly because of its ability to impact the environment [1], quality of life [2], the health of the population [1], and the cost of public health [3]. In a context where one of humanity's most significant challenges has been the sustainable management of natural resources, smart waste management is an essential issue for societies' sustainability [4].…”

The sewage system is one of the components of the complex ecosystem of cities. Although increasing the intelligence of this system is an essential driver for having smarter cities, there are few works aimed at identifying drivers that enhance the intelligence of urban sanitary sewage systems. The identification of these drivers, as well as the degree of importance of each one, is strongly influenced by the perception of researchers and professionals about the reality of each country. In this work, we identified the main drivers that increase the intelligence of the Brazilian urban sanitary sewage systems based on extensive and detailed bibliographic research and in the vision of 241 Brazilian professionals with experience in the concerned field. We used factor analysis to explore the relationship between the drivers. The survey results showed that the twenty drivers found in the literature can be grouped into six factors, depending on their approach, and that seven were considered priorities. They also showed that the path to be followed to increase the intelligence of sewage systems in Brazilian cities is still influenced by the challenges of solving structural problems.

“…taking care of health (Ek et al, 2018)) and sound environment (Kang et al, 2018) which influences the comfort of life of urban community. According to Chen and Lin (2019) smart city architecture takes into account 20 areas including in particular information infrastructure based on ICT, artificial intelligence, the IoT or solutions based on a cloud and fog computing (Du et al, 2019;Lytras et al, 2019;Milošević et al, 2019;Sánchez-Teba & Bermúdez-González, 2019), e-administration, social insurance, intelligent transportation (Suryanegara et al, 2019), e.g. electric and autonomous cars (Si Min Lim & Taeihagh, 2019), intelligent diagnosis and treatment as well as video-mapping (Yang, 2019).…”

Along this article we share our research in the field of urban creativity, in particular on how smart cities are becoming more and more independent and developing a spirit of sustainable autonomy that somehow creates creative opportunities in terms of memory and cultural identity. Our current article raises the issue of how can smart cities affect the creative process? We believe that creativity becomes a process linked into a digital world and becomes much more interactive. That is why new ways of artistic and digital expression can be welcomed by those who are used to new technologies, which daily influence human activity in the space of the city. In other words, with the use of the existing technology inside the cities and their interconnections with other cities we can conceive creative strategies that will contribute to preserve the memory as well as the cultural and creative identity of a people. Video-mapping is precisely one of those creative strategies, once it will directly interact between the real dimension and the virtual dimension. The use of video-mapping, as an element of covering the facades of buildings, can somehow help to make the streets more dynamic and transform them into other atmospheres. The city becomes part of the third dimension and people are interacting between the real and the virtual. The management of the urban space has been gradually changing and following the technological advance. Mobility and sustainability is one of the key factors in which a smart city has invested the most. Now is the time to invest in a relationship between the city and the people, making it more humane and giving space for creativity.

“…There are several reviews that focus on an aspect of smart water. This includes reviews of cyber-physical water networks (Adedeji and Hamam, 2020), cyber-security and water (Tuptuk et al, 2021), urban hydroinformatics (Makropoulos and Savić, 2019), domestic wastewater (Du., et al, 2019), smart metering (Cominola et al, 2015), water security (Su et al, 2020), resilience to failure (Marchese et al, 2020), and sustainability (Wang., et al, 2015). To evaluate municipal smart water and its contributions to climate adaptation and mitigation, we conduct a systematic review of the recent academic literature.…”

This study examines how research on smart water is contributing to climate-resilient municipal water systems around the globe. We identify smart water research trends over time, relationships with climate adaptation and mitigation goals, and applicability to places with developed or developing water and electrical infrastructure. To do so, we systematically review the literature, identifying research on Information Communication Technology-enabled technologies related to water supply, wastewater, and stormwater management. We assess the relationship between each study and climate adaptation and mitigation objectives: managing greater variation in water quantity, leading to scarcity and increased stormwater; managing declining water quality; and low-carbon water systems. We find 96 relevant studies and identify five major categories of research addressing climate adaptation and mitigation: monitoring, modeling, system design, system feedbacks, and uptake and implementation. We find there is a recent acceleration in smart water research, with a concentration of studies focused on modeling. There is an emphasis on water efficiency using data from Advanced Metering Infrastructure, which is most applicable to cities with developed water grids and consistent electrical supplies. Secondarily, there is a concentration of work using distributed sensors for early detection of water quality degradation, which is being done in all municipal contexts. There is far less research on uptake and implementation of smart approaches, especially at the institutional level. In addition, there is relatively little work that explicitly relates smart water technologies to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. While smart water approaches are applicable everywhere, there is a need to for expanded focus on areas without developed water grids or consistent electricity for smart water to meaningfully contribute to Sustainable Development Goal 6.
