TOPIC SUMMARY:
Developing smart cities to better support growing urban population is
a global and complex challenge and involves interdisciplinary fields.
Instead of traditional Internet of Contents in human-to-human and
human-to-machine communications, the Internet of Things with
communications among massive numbers of sensors will dominate the
network traffic. Every day, all these smart things are generating
massive data calculated in ZettaBytes. As our cities become smarter,
we face brand new opportunities and challenges. Due to inherent
characteristics of geodistribution in big data generated by networked
sensors deployed for IoT applications, the “smartness” of
infrastructure in future smart cities requires intelligent data
sensing, fusion and mining for monitoring and actuation to ensure
infrastructure reliability and public safety. To make current networks
and services more efficient with the use of cutting-edge technologies,
this issue emphasizes on Internet of Things (IoT) and Data Processing
for smart cities.

The topics of interest for this special issue include, but are not limited to:
• IoT data management in smart cities
• Data analytics and machine learning for smart cities
• Smart transport and mobility in smart cities
• Network science for smart cites
• Fog/edge computing with IoT for smart cities
• Security and data privacy for smart cities
• Smart communications in IoT for smart cities such as M2M, D2D, and 5G
• Novel algorithms, models, frameworks, architectures, platforms in
data-driven IoT for smart cities
