Smart cities are the future, but there is no smart city without smart people. Citizens will always be central to any Smart Cities development. The growth and the civilization of a city depend very much on the inhabitants and how they react upon the services provided to them. A city is like a living organism with their own anatomy. The rate at which the cities grow depending on how healthy and intelligent they are. Internet of Things (IoT) is one part that made the anatomy of a city. This upcoming talk will highlight the issues and challenges of building the anatomy of a Smart City.
