There are significant challenges in identifying the data resources and methods for the effective information retrieval and integration. The entire world is transforming and faces a lot of challenges in its implementation process like cities to Smart Cities, transport to intelligent transportation System etc. This book provides a comprehensive overview of various aspects of the development of smart cities from a secure, trusted, and reliable data transmission perspective. It presents theoretical concepts and empirical studies, as well as examples of smart city programs and their capacity to create value for citizens. The contributions offer a panorama of the most important aspects of smart city evolution and implementation within various frameworks, such as healthcare, education, and transportation. Comparing current advanced applications and best practices, the book subsequently explores how smart environments and programs could help improve the quality of life in urban spaces and promote cultural and economic development. Many problems will arise such as pollution, pressure on water resources and social inequalities and we will have to think about new solutions to resolve these problems. Blockchain is leading to be the most appealing Smart City technology that has the potential to make cities’ operations more efficient, secure, and transparent. Applying Blockchain technology to future Smart Cities could be the key to solving a variety of socio-demographic problems. The primary driver behind adopting Blockchain technology for the government sector is its aim to support an open, transparent, and collaborative government that can streamline access to public services and contract management. Blockchain and Smart Cities concepts are each destined to shape our future in different ways, but they could shape it by working together. Scientists and different research teams have described future urban developments to be more interconnected than ever before. The future cities that we will live in will be more interconnected than ever. IoT devices and sensors will help transmit data, create efficiencies and adapt our living habits to our environment. Incorporating blockchain into the development of Smart Cities will make it possible to have a cross-cutting platform that connects the cities’ different services, adding greater transparency and security to all services and processes. Blockchain is not unique because it works alone but because it can cooperate perfectly with other technologies such as AI, ML, IoT that are considered key elements of the 4th Industrial revolution. Imagine a city interconnected in all ways and imagine entire. Smart Cities interconnected with each other, transferring data, sharing secure information and P2P resources trading, from one Smart City to another. Still very far from real world implementation but blockchain technology is beginning to be seen by scientists as a way to improve disaster preparedness and relief effectiveness. This book will contribute and discusses the diverse topics to explain the rapidly emerging and evolving blockchain technology and artificial perspective, the emergence of integrated platforms and hosted third-party tools, and the development of decentralized applications for various business domains in developing Smart Cities. It presents various applications that are helpful for research scholars and scientists who are working toward identifying and pinpointing the potential of as well as the hindrances to this technology.
