Synopsis

Are smart cities our future? New information and communication technologies can contribute to solving the current and future challenges faced by cities. This book shows the concrete work over a period of five years towards developing a Smart City , as a Public Private Partnership between Deutsche Telekom and a medium-sized German city (Friedrichshafen). The aim of the project was to extend the city s social intercommunication, to make the location more effective for businesses, and especially to noticeably improve the quality of life for residents. This vision was converted into reality over a period of five years and accompanied by social-scientific studies. The authors show the effects and benefits of the project, thereby providing a substantial contribution to the worldwide debate about Smart Cities .
