Neutrosophic Framework for Assessment Challenges in Smart Sustainable Cities based on IoT to Better Manage Energy Resources and Decrease the Urban Environment's Ecological Impact
Journal Title: Neutrosophic Systems with Applications - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Sustainable smart cities based on the Internet of Things (IoT) technology provide promising prospects for improving quality of life. However, in order to facilitate the widespread implementation of IoT-based smart city solutions, there is a need to concern about data privacy and security, standardization, interoperability, scalability, and sustainability. Reducing the environmental effect of urban activities, optimizing the management of energy resources, and designing novel services and solutions for inhabitants are all examples of how the smart city concept is inextricably linked to sustainability. There is a need to assess challenges in smart sustainable cities based on IoT. This paper intended to introduce a new neutrosophic framework for assessment challenges in smart sustainable cities based on IoT for better-managing energy resources and decreasing the urban environment's ecological impact. The proposed framework used nine criteria and five alternatives. Also, the proposed framework applied the neutrosophic Weighted Product Method (WPM) to compute the weights of criteria and rank challenges. Moreover, the proposed framework integrated the single-valued neutrosophic set to deal with uncertain data. The results indicated that the proposed framework can handle uncertain data and give more effective results in assessing challenges in smart sustainable cities based on IoT to better manage energy resources and decrease the urban environment's ecological impact.
