Smart technologies, such as big data and the internet of things, enable planners to access real-time and timely data, help citizens participate more actively in planning and decision-making processes, and enable residents to use water and electricity resources more efficiently, The technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), cognitive computing and big data analytics have contributed immensely in the realization of this dream, p of software defined networking (SDN), The devices in a smart city are embedded with sensors which are self sustainable and automated. The integration of physical devices, services and management can be realized with the help of cyber physical systems, By 2024, an anticipated 83 billion connected devices and sensors will be creating large, diverse datasets on a wide range of topics, such as energy consumption, air quality, and traffic patterns. Next-generation energy systems can leverage the data from these connected buildings, appliances and transportation systems to reduce energy consumption, improve grid stability and better manage city services.
