Abstract
The unprecedented expansion of global metropolises has modernized many people's lives, yet it has also engendered significant challenges, such as air pollution, increased energy consumption, and traffic congestion. Tackling these deeply intertwined challenges was nearly impossible years ago given the complex, dynamic, and constantly shifting environments of cities. Nowadays, ubiquitous sensing technologies and distributed computing infrastructures have produced a variety of big data in urban spaces, e.g., human mobility, air quality, traffic patterns, social media, and geographical data. Motivated by the opportunities of building more intelligent cities, we came up with a vision of urban computing, which aims to unlock the power of knowledge from big and heterogeneous data collected in urban spaces and apply this powerful information to solve critical problems our cities face today, ultimately fostering sustainable ecosystems and elevating the human experience.
Smart cities are intended to accomplish the development and energy consumption, conserve area, enhance the economy and living conditions of their citizens population, while increasing the ability of the people to adopt and use modern information communication technology (ICT). ICT is fundamental to both the policy deve...

Congestion in urban roads is one of the largest dilemmas in contemporary cities which causes an increment in the travel. it is cheaper, less consuming fuel and causing pollution. The standard traffic control systems are cycle-based. Existing intelligent traffic systems rely on manual monitoring and thus could not cope...

Smart technologies improve modern living, their reliance on linked infrastructures may make them more susceptible to disruptions caused by people and the environment. The idea of developing smart but resilient cities has assumed primacy amid growing dangers from environment associated disorders and substructure stresse...

Infrastructure grows as the world grows, and cities grow to accommodate the growing
population. The more people there are, the more houses cities need, but on what land? With
restrictions on land usage, cities are now adapting the concept of vertical cities, expanding
upwards instead of horizontally. Vertical cities ar...

The analysis demonstrates that the value of AI–IoT integration lies not simply in increasing technological sophistication but in enabling cities to minimize resource consumption, anticipate infrastructure failure, reduce emissions, improve service responsiveness, and make urban systems increasingly adaptive.
