The term Smart Cities has been coined to identify technology-intensive cities which provide the ability to gather, analyze, and distribute information so as to transform services offered to the citizens, improve operational efficiency, and entail better decisions at the municipal level. The future is today when it comes to Smart Cities. Numerous innovators and start-up companies develop commercially relevant successful products, and the Smart City is filled with success stories. The most well-known applications revolve around parking monitoring. Privacy is a main concern in Smart Cities: in smart grids, the system should be able to switch off some appliances to reduce their consumption so that it matches energy generation. However, this knowledge may have a negative impact on the privacy. |
