Abstract
THIS PAPER PRESENTS AND EVALUATES THE PERFORMANCE THAT THE SMART CITY CONCEPT MUST ENSURE. IN THIS RESPECT, WE HAVE FIRST EMPHASIZED THE MOTIVATION AND THE UNDERLYING IMPORTANCE OF THIS SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, THE CONSTRAINTS AND THE ISSUES THAT ARISE WHEN SUCH A SYSTEM IS TO BE IMPLEMENTED. TO BEGIN WITH, WE HAVE IDENTIFIED AND DEFINED THE CHARACTERISTICS AND SPECIFIC FEATURES OF A SMART CITY. ADDITIONALLY, WE HAVE STUDIED THE CURRENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES THAT OCCUR WHEN IMPLEMENTING A SMART CITY CONCEPT, BY CONSIDERIN G THE NECESSITY AND THE UNDERLYING REASONS FOR DEVELOPING THIS CONCEPT.
