“…China's policy is to transform itself into an entrepreneurial state that aggressively follows economic development and urban growth to drive its progress [57]. As suggested above, the unprecedented urban explosion in China cannot be ignored.…”

“…One questions the Chinese model of urbanization in terms of its economic, social, and environmental sustainability, especially relating to the adverse effect of intensive (fossil fuel-based) energy consumption, endemic (petrol-powered) congestion, and blocked transport arteries, all of which further contribute towards water and air pollution, increasing toxic wastes, the depletion of natural resources, and general environmental degradation. Several authors describe these effects of Chinese urbanization as infecting Chinese cities with "urban diseases" [57], which others echo as traffic jams, environmental deterioration, housing shortages, employment problems, and public safety challenges [26]. These are all seen as undermining healthy and sustainable development of the country.…”

“…The cases presented aim to demonstrate the usefulness of big data collected from mobile devices and social networks to analyze human mobility. Although the majority of the cases presented are at the level of practice in different cities in China, most of them remain at the level of IoT, whereby data derived using the Internet or connected systems seek to add to the understanding of specific mobility issues [57]. It is unclear how these in the long run will contribute to the holy grail of big (urban) data, significant contributions at the level of urban planning and policy, whereby decisions are based on the added value of the understanding provided from the deeper analysis of big urban datasets, let alone contribute to the higher goal of sustainable urban development.…”

Regarding Smart Cities in China, the North and Emerging Economies—One Size Does Not Fit All

This article explores the significance of the “Smart city” concept by reviewing its key components, namely: Internet of Things (IoT), big (urban) data, and urban informatics/analytics, which are discussed against the background of two ongoing trends impacting everyone in the world—the Fourth Paradigm (the digital revolution) and rapid urbanization. China is seen as a great success story in the sense of how urbanization has driven a significant improvement in the economic wellbeing and prosperity of many of its citizens. Chinese expansion has come at a cost, and the question remains concerning the sustainability of the Chinese model. Along with this, the article suggests some of the short comings of the components of the Smart city concept and reflects on the human resource skills that will be required to implement Smart cities in the north. This is contrasted with the piecemeal way in which elements of the Smart city are being implemented in emerging economies. A process that very much seems to reflect fundamental technical and capacity issues that may hinder any blanket application of the Smart city in the emerging economies for a long time.

Abstract. This paper, through study case of Montenegro, deals with significance of sophisticated management in process of activation of old urban units and some architectural facilities for tourist purposes. Starting fact is that one of the most important segments of tourist offer is immobile cultural heritage, having the value manifested in few segments, emphasizing two most famous. The first one represents urban agglomerations, successfully transposed into tourist offer, while the other segment is vencular residential architecture of indeginous type, which can also contribute to tourist offer with appealing its contents. This work also gives the example of target potentials. Examples mentioned in this work proved as successful and profitable (in economic way). Also, some of examples in the work are opportunities missed because of serious devastation of architectural and urban designing heritage, as well as real chances certain localities have. Specific case analysis proved that management is not present enough and not educated enough -it is far below disposable potentials Montenegro possesses. This work also points, through implemented researches, the degree of personnel, who are in charge for promoting values of traditional architecture for tourist purposes. However, logical conclusion can be drawn that the conscience about quality of old urban entities and vernacular heritage is not developed enough. That initiates requirement for educating managers and forming of multidisciplinar teams so the knowledge could be used for proper valorization of potentials. Significance of proper and qualified personnel is specially emphasized when this topic is studied, because investors are not educated enough on this issue, so disposable means are used for some other things marked and recognised as proper and profitable investments.
