Paper Abstract:
|
The shift of populations to cities is creating challenges in many respects, thus leading to increasing demand for smart
solutions of urbanization problems. Smart city applications range from technical and social to economic and ecological.
The main focus of this work is to provide a systematic literature review of smart city research to answer two main
questions: (1) How is current research on smart cities structured? and (2) What directions are relevant for future research
on smart cities? To answer these research questions, a text-mining approach is applied to a large number of publications.
This provides an overview and gives insights into relevant dimensions of smart city research. Although the main
dimensions of research are already described in the literature, an evaluation of the relevance of such dimensions is
missing. Findings suggest that the dimensions of environment and governance are popular, while the dimension of
economy has received only limited attention. |
