“…They can monitor energy resource distribution and consumption, as well as parking, lighting, and water supply (Difallah et al, 2013; Lee et al, 2013; Zanella et al, 2014). Tanda and De Marco (2018) propose that one of the main factors driving the implementation of IoT‐enabled smart city services is the potential economic savings for a city through the management of a variety of urban assets from within one system. The smart system based on IoT technology developed for the Smart Social Spaces project is an example of IoT‐enabled smart city services (see Steinmetz et al, 2021).…”

The city dashboard has become an integral component of smart city asset management systems. It leverages data collected from multiple sources to monitor performance and enable evidence‐based decision making. This article investigates the use of a design thinking framework to develop a functional and easy to understand city dashboard. The Smart Social Spaces project is used as a case study to illustrate how design thinking can be employed to develop an asset management dashboard, enabling efficient management of public space and infrastructure. The article profiles the unique collaboration between a local government, a multi‐disciplinary team of university academics, and a street furniture designer and manufacturer, all located in Sydney, Australia. We unpack some of the design practice nuances that led this project to receive national awards and international recognition, and most importantly, created a user‐friendly system to track and maintain public micro assets. We conclude with lessons learnt and recommendations for dashboard development through a design thinking process.

Cities around the world are facing enormous strain to sustain and improve the quality of life (QoL) owing to rapid urbanization and rising populations. Management of urban resources in a responsible manner is key to sustainable development in rapidly urbanizing regions. Cities are increasingly making use of modern technologies with a focus on cost reduction, optimal resource utilization and creation of more liveable urban environment. Such cities, called smart cities, have gained traction with policy makers, politicians and urban managers having the attributes of sustainable urbanism, QoL, and smartness. Smart cities provide digital intelligence to existing cities by creating a ubiquitous, integrated and smart environment where IoT applications impart seamless interconnection, interaction, control and insights about the isolated systems within the cities. This paper discusses and reviews the role of IoT for sustainable smart cities by highlighting IoT applications for smart cities. The challenges and opportunities associated with IoT enabled smart cities are also highlighted.

“…As a broad definition, a city becomes smart when "investments in human and social capital and traditional (transport) and modern (ICT) communication infrastructure fuel sustainable economic growth and a high quality of life, with a wise management of natural resources, through participatory governance" (Caragliu, Del Bo, & Nijkamp, 2011, p. 70). By new innovative technologies in combination with human capital, cities are developing projects and initiatives (Michelucci, De Marco, & Tanda, 2016) with the goal of reducing their environmental footprint, improving their global competitiveness and their citizens' quality of life, thereby becoming a central force of regional development, and driving innovation and local cooperation (Battaglia & Tremblay, 2011) (Tanda & De Marco, 2018a). However, while city administrators are developing and implementing top-down strategic SC plans (Breuer, Walravens, & Ballon, 2014;Walravens, 2015), the main driver of SC innovation comes from the city's interconnected bottom-up ecosystem of people, communities, businesses and industry, collaborating and working together to foster creativity and social innovation (Cosgrave, Tryfonas, & Crick, 2014;De la Peña, 2013;Edwards-Schachter et al, 2012;Townsend, 2013).…”

In 2016 the city of Turin, Italy, launched the Torino Living Lab initiative. By using the urban Living Lab approach, with firms, public bodies, universities, and communities collaborating to co-create innovation, Turin aims to encourage, attract, and foster a growing and inclusive innovation environment. This article describes the efforts that Turin has made to design the initiative and presents a structured methodology to assess its results. The expectations and objectives of the initiative's utilizers and the characteristics, impressions, habits, and behaviors of the citizens were collected before the initiative through a series of semi-structured interviews and a survey. By comparing the obtained results with similar post-mortem measurements, it is possible to assess the success of the initiative and evaluate its impacts. Finally, this study present interesting policy takeaways for cities wanting to implement urban Living Labs and identify best practices for their design, implementation, and management.
