Abstract

IT is transforming society, and has high impact

on infrastructure, transport systems, buildings

and in public spaces. Urban areas are rebuilding

the traditional technological scenario, with

systems that create new needs, discovering new

realities, and seeking new solutions. The aim of

this paper is to establish a methodology to set

an assessment tool for different technologies

in terms of their usefulness and consequences,

considering the impact of their applications.

With it, policy makers and influencers can

evaluate the advantages of each initiative,

the virtues of the available technologies and

systems, and the best way for it application in

Smart Cities.
