“…Authorities should pay attention to all infrastructure sectors at every stage of city management. When planning the budget and making executive decisions, the representatives of the administration must not overlook any of the sectors that are important for the life of the city (Jelonek, et al, 2020). A very important element in this aspect is the circulation of information and the possibility to quickly finalise official matters, e.g.…”

Due to the environmental imbalance on our planet, the concept of zero waste is gaining importance day by day. It is particularly important in the aspect of production and consumption cycle management and responsible waste management in urban space. The aim of this article is to exemplify methods of reducing waste in smart cities according to the author's Waste Management for Generation, Environment, and Gains (WM2GEG) scheme. An additional aim was to select the most effective ways of rational waste management in smart cities. A structured interview method was used to collect data, and the research sample was selected using the Smart City Index 2020. The study identified environmentally and socially friendly and economically beneficial methods of rational waste management, such as composting organic waste, creating underground waste containers, and incinerating waste with energy recovery. Specific ways to reduce waste are also presented, such as banning disposable packaging and obtaining energy from renewable sources.

“…There are scientists who associate SC with proper planning (Dutta et al, 2020;Jelonek et al, 2020) and relate to their social, economic and political planning (De Falco, 2019). Despite the fact that others consider SC as sustainable (Caird & Hallett, 2019;Estévez-Ortiz et al, 2016), there are authors who support the idea that only when ICT is applied to all sustainable development decisions, the SC could carry the concept of a smart, sustainable city (Ahad et al, 2020;Elgazzar & El-Gazzar, 2017;Macke et al, 2019;Yigitcanlar et al, 2019), whereas others also confront the concept of SC as "smart, sustainable cities" stating that keeping in mind only the rise of technological efficiency cannot ensure real sustainability in a city (Ibrahim, El-Zaart & Adams, 2017;2018).…”

The article aims to propose a different approach to assessing smart cities which combines some commonly used indicators with several new ones in line with the concept of sustainability. The aspect of sustainable development as an essential driver for the smart city and the combination of indicators for sustainable and smart city concepts have been analysed fragmentarily so far. There are many different approaches to evaluate the indicators of city smartness; however, very little attention is paid to the analysis of the reciprocal importance of the indicators. Ten indicators representing a smart city were selected that would be keep in line all the three pillars of sustainability—environmental, social, and economic. An expert survey was conducted to assign the weights of indicators using the pairwise comparison approach. The results were processed by utilising the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP), which reduces the subjectivity in the experts’ answers. The presented approach differs from the ones commonly used and while it does not cover a wide range of usual indicators, it proposes some new ideas for further research. Some represent cities to attract young and intelligent citizens, others relate to comfortable and safe living conditions and the environmental situation. The results revealed that the most vital smartness indicators are foreign direct investments, pollutant emission, and the share of people registered as unemployed among the working-age population. These indicators cannot be easily identified as ones representing a smart city, but rather as indicators representing investment and environmental, sustainable aspects. Hence, finding a balance between the indicators related to sustainable and smart city is what highlights the need for further research.

“…Becoming a smart city is an important task in the transition path and an urban strategy of many cities. They can use different models of building city development strategies e.g., a model of using sentiment analysis to build city strategies and the realization of the related projects [3]. The presented model is a part of a larger work on developing the concept of the Regional Spatial Business Community (RSBC) as an example of a project that will increase the investment attractiveness of cities [4].…”

This paper presents the use of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) for the evaluation of smart cities. During the development of the method, the importance of the decision-making approach in the linear ordering of cities was presented. The method of using the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) was proposed for the preparation of ranking. The method was verified by the application in the measurement of energy performance in smart cities. The authors conducted a literature review of research papers related to urban energy and MCDM published in the period from 2010 to 2020. The paper uses data from the World Council on City Data (WCCD). The research conducted allowed for the identification of the most popular MCDM techniques in the field of urban energy such as TOPSIS, AHP and DEA. The TOPSIS technique was used to organize and group the analyzed cities. Porto took the top position, whereas Buenos Aries was the last.
