Towards Smart and Sustainable Future Cities Based on Internet of Things for Developing Countries: What Approach for Africa?
Journal Title: EAI Endorsed Transactions on Internet of Things - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 13
Abstract
This article aims first at reviewing and discussing previous works on Internet of Things based sustainable smart cities. Secondly, it proposes an ideological and technical framework that better suits communities in future cities. At the same time, we provide a reference model that can generally apply to developing countries and specifically to Africa. This work represents a first step towards future cities and should at the same time constitute a reference base for researchers working on the same topic. Some Indexes have been leveraged to carry out this work.
