• Definition of smart infrastructure
– A smart system uses a feedback loop of data, which provides
evidence for informed decision-making. The system can monitor,
measure, analyze, communicate and act, based on information
captured from sensors. Diﬀerent levels of smart systems exist. A
system may:
• Principles of smart infrastructure
– Data
• Data are turned into information, into knowledge and then into value.
– Analyze
• Systems that are able to process these data and then make
appropriate decisions will have to be developed and put in place.
– Feedback
• Feedback within a smart system provides opportunities to
increase its performance.
– Adaptability
• Smart systems and infrastructure need to be adaptable to varying
demands and conditions, including developing technology.
Smart infrastructure: the Future
‘Smart infrastructure’
responds intelligently to
changes in its environment,
including user demands and
other infrastructure, to
achieve an improved
performance.

What is the Barriers to
smart infrastructure...!!??
• Barriers to smart infrastructure:
– Smart government:
• No overarching governmental structure
exists currently to manage multi-
modal, multi-agency changes that are
currently proposed and underway.
– Data quality and management:
• With the increasing need to share
information, it is important to come up
with standards to assess data quality,
and to do this in ways that meet
privacy concerns.
– Privacy:
• There are many diﬀerent ways in which
people give up information in order to
get some value back.
– Investment:
• Greater smartness inevitably involves
greater integration, which inevitably
means changes to the industry
structure.
– Vulnerability:
• The price of connectedness may be
vulnerability to new kinds of attack, so
security and resilience needs to be
built into systems.
– Lifetime:
• Electronic sensors embedded into the
physical environment can start to limit
the lifetime of infrastructure.

• Smart Cities Need Smart Citizens
– Data and technology should augment human
intelligence, not seek to replace it.
– We must trust intuitive wisdom, avoiding the twin
traps of reductionism and determinism.
– We must see the urban system as a network of
interrelated spectrums, not polarities.
– We must recognize the city as a constantly changing
organism, not a mechanistic model capable of highly
processed control.
– Rather than seeking reassuring ideologies and
absolutes, we should rely on collective intelligence
to find our timeless way of building’.

cities, complete with futuristic cars and clean energy infrastructure.
The NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering Science of Smart Cities program held its
fourth annual expo, where the children showed off their designs. During their four-week
training with NYU engineering students, participants learned about engineering aspects
of sustainable and resilient cities.

There are countless challenges with any smart city initiative but can
ultimately fall under these five major categories with each one bringing
its own variety of questions and roadblocks.
1. Vision
The smart city vision begins
with identifying what issues
the city faces and how
solutions can be
constructed to deal with
those issues and how to
make the city run efficiently
and prosper for decades to
come.
Top 5 Smart City Challenges Index

Indian officials want 100 ‘smart cities.’ Residents just want water and power.
Earlier this year, before
Ajmer was chosen for
smart-city status, Modi
had also included it in a
list of 12 “heritage cities”
he planned to develop.
And a few years ago, the
government launched a
program to make Ajmer
a “slum-free city.”
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/india-wants-to-build-100-smart-cities-residents-just-
want-water-and-power/2015/06/25/9951df1a-0ec6-11e5-a0fe-dccfea4653ee_story.html
Vision vs Real Needs

2. Design
Retrofitting is where design of new smart
city initiatives must truly shine. Inadequate
infrastructure, specifically highways, is one of the
areas where design matters most. More lanes, less
traffic is not always the answer as it is just more
infrastructure that takes an extended period of time
to build. Occasionally, causing even more traffic due
to construction, it will more than likely become a
temporary fix for a consistently growing population.
While more lanes may aid for the time being, cities
must have alternatives like sensors (built into the
infrastructure itself or into light posts) and analytics
to help redistribute traffic to cut down on citizens’
travel times and make more efficient use of their
transportation infrastructure.
Top5SmartCityChallenges

3. Funding
Locating proper funds for a project can
be one of the most, if not the most,
difficult component of a smart city
initiative. An increasing number of cities
around the world are announcing plans
to become smart and more resilient in
spite of their social, economic, and
geographical challenges.

4. Skepticism
Civic engagement is one of the most important portions of the smart city
initiative as it is ultimately focused on improving the quality of life for
the citizens of the given city. Smart cities bring promise to their citizens
as much as they do doubts of their future effects on services, politics,
security and privacy.
 How much privacy will citizens have to sacrifice in
order to feel safer and have their data shared with
the municipality, developers and other citizens
through open data programs?
 Is it even an issue when location services on
smartphones consistently project our location
regardless of our knowledge?
 It may just become the norm for citizens as privacy
and security become intertwined with various
smart city programs.

5. Implementation
The actual implementation of
the initiative and making it a
reality is just as much a
hurdle as any other issue
above. There are many
roadblocks in moving an
initiative forward including
siloed municipal departments,
a lack of direction, lack of
proper leadership, and most
of a lack of tools to make the
initiative real.

1. Work out what problems need fixing
Take Jakarta and Beijing: “They are both currently exploring data dashboards and
citywide sensing projects to address issues around traffic congestion, when what
these cities really need are vastly improved public transport systems.”
2. Find a leader
Leaders should come from the public sector. “Some of the
standout smart cities – Barcelona, Amsterdam, Malmo – exhibited
dynamic leadership from their mayors as well as chief executives,”
3. Develop a vision everyone can get behind
The Olympics is a good example of a shared goal,
which succeeded in bringing together
communities, the public and private sectors,
academia, volunteers and business.
10 Steps to Building a Smart City Index

4. Make a business case
Networks of sensors need expensive infrastructure, and there’s currently little precedent
around whether it’s the taxpayer or industry that foots the bill. A vision that adds economic,
social and environmental value could be key to attracting investment from tech companies,
universities and elsewhere.
5. Share data and incentivize innovation
Open data is critical to fostering an ecosystem for innovation, but the public sector, with
its entrenched ideas around data protection, can be reluctant to share. City councils
should see it as “investment rather than expenditure”.
6. Design from the bottom up
Fujisawa, Japan, is an example of a city designed from the ground up.
It’s a disaster proof, self-sufficient town with self-cleaning homes
that generates its own electricity. Even the streets are designed to
reduce energy consumption – they follow the shape of a leaf to help
natural airflow and reduce the need for AC.
10 Steps to Building a Smart City

7. Tread carefully
We are still in the early days of exploring the costs and benefits of these technologies for society
and business and perhaps a more cautious approach is needed, and the complicated issues
around privacy that need addressing.
8. Get politicians on board
Political leaders are important for communicating the need for new tech, and assuaging citizens’
concerns about safety and privacy. It would be great to see politicians explain why they are
spending our taxes on a smarter city.
9. Educate citizens
10. Spread the word
A smart city will be irrelevant to most of its inhabitants unless
they can learn how to use new technology.
All cities to share their experiences and evidence so
that no one has to start from scratch.
