“…The smart city concept can be further deconstructed into certain sub-groups. On this basis, the following areas of urban development can be listed within the smart city concept [22,25]: smart transport and mobility, smart environment, smart people, smart living, smart governance and smart economy. From the point of view of the smart housing concept, the economic context of smart cities is crucial, but smart people and smart governance are also important.…”

Cities are currently undergoing vast changes, which have very significant implications for the functioning of the housing market. In particular, it should be stated that the traditional residential market, in imitation of the smart city concept, is becoming increasingly smarter. This smartness can be expressed in four dimensions: the “automatic” rental housing market; innovative digital platforms in the traditional housing market; innovative policies and housing models; and the ability to forecast demand on the housing market, which together form the so-called smart housing concept. On this basis, this study attempted to assess empirically the smartness of the residential markets in Polish provincial capitals. Firstly, after a thorough analysis of digital housing portals, official websites of Polish provincial capitals and public statistics data, the smart housing concept was operationalised in all its dimensions by defining appropriate indicators measuring its level in a given city. Then, using the zero unitarization and entropy weight methods, followed by a no-pattern synthetic measure, a comprehensive smart housing index was obtained for each city investigated. Research results showed that there is a large degree of variation in the level of smartness of the housing markets in the examined cities. Furthermore, the analysis also indicates that the economic dimension of the smart city concept and the co-working concept are the main driving forces behind the development of smart residential markets. In addition, the study reveals that the implementation of the smart housing concept has a positive impact on the quality of life of city inhabitants.

“…According to Shahidehpour, Li, and Ganji [3], the number of people living in urban areas rose from 1 billion (about 30% of the world population) in the 1950s to approximately 3.9 billion (over 55% of the total population) at present. It is predicted that this number may reach 6.5 billion, which will make up about 70% of the global population, in 2050 [4]. Thus, the whole world is facing extremely fast development of urbanization which places an excessive burden on city infrastructures to satisfy a huge number of people's demands for 'energy, water, transportation, education, healthcare, and safety' [5,6].…”

Fast urbanization leads to several challenges in many cities all over the world. Thus, urban innovation is considered a common approach to deal with such questions. Although technologies are important factors in urban innovation, the development of technologies over time, how they affect urban innovation, in which relationship they stand to each other, and how they can be evaluated in a system approach are still not clear. To answer these questions, in our study, a Technology-DNA (T-DNA) is applied to US patents, which represent the most developed market in the world. Our paper provides some theoretical points in urban innovation and a systematic classification of technologies in this field based on patent classes. In addition, this research shows technological drivers in different system levels in urban innovation, especially in the super-system (representing city infrastructures) in detail. Therefore, it may help researchers, managers, politicians, and planners to focus on important technologies and to integrate technological drivers in urban innovation in their plans.

“…Cities in developed countries are undergoing fast growth due to different factors such as the increase in the global population [1] or migration from rural environments and underdeveloped countries, among others [2,3]. In fact, more than half of the world's population now lives in cities and this number is expected to reach 66% by 2050 [4,5].…”

“…In fact, more than half of the world's population now lives in cities and this number is expected to reach 66% by 2050 [4,5]. As a result of this urban population increase, major problems related to the sustainability of cities are emerging, such as the worsening of air quality as a consequence of the use of fossil fuels for transportation or heating of buildings [3,[5][6][7]. Specifically, in terms of energy supply, it is estimated that 75% of total energy is consumed in cities [3] and that this consumption will double over the next three decades [8,9].…”

A Methodology for Buildings Access to Solar Radiation in Sustainable Cities

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The growing need to improve the environmental and energy sustainability of buildings involves the use of solar radiation incident on their surfaces. However, in cities, this task is complicated due to the constructive geometry that leads to shading between buildings. In this context, this work presents a study of solar access to the façades of buildings in cities. The methodology is based on the determination of the incident annual solar radiation in 121 significant points of each façade considering the twelve representative days of the year. To characterize the influence of the different city typologies on solar access, the urban solar coefficient is proposed. A study of two neighborhoods in Cordoba (Spain) with different urban settings have been analyzed. Specifically, two typologies of neighborhoods have been compared: one with “L-shaped” and “U-shaped blocks” and another with “Grouped blocks”. For both of them, the Urban Solar Coefficient has been calculated, obtaining a higher mean value for the neighborhood with “L-shaped” and “U-shaped blocks” (0.317) than for the one with “Grouped blocks” (0.260). Accordingly, the results show that urban morphology can influence the Urban Solar Coefficient and solar access. Finally, a regression model for each neighborhood has been obtained in order to determine the dependence of the Urban Solar Coefficient on neighborhood geometry factors.
