A Framework for the Actualization of Green Cloud-Based Design for Smart Cities

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
IoT and IoE Driven Smart Cities

Abstract

The idea of smart cities is attracting support each day and has emerged as a solution to solve the unprecedented problems of accelerated urban development and growing population explosion and, at the same time, give residents and tourists a better lifestyle. The smart city bears some responsibility for both planned and unforeseen circumstances, and the potential of alleviating the influence of instability on the causes of disturbance by evaluating all possible data produced by the city introduces new opportunities for resilience activity. The Internet of Everything (IoE) alongside advanced networking technology is an important means of achieving smartness in every smart city system. Companies and policymakers around the world are making a great deal of effort to support the value of lowering electricity use and carbon emissions, as well as the green IoE for smart cities. Therefore, this chapter lays out a new system for upgrading smart cities that have lowered power usage at each level to ensure the implementation of IoT towards a green climate. The chapter also identifies core innovations, resources, threats, and potential prospects in these fields.
