摘要：As humanity entered in the so-called “metropolitan century”,the smart city has become a topic of interest both for researchers and practitioners worldwide. In the age of globalization,smart cities are in a fierce competition for tourists,companies,technology,and human talent. Smart cities are increasingly seen as complex places that involve a multidimensional approach. Thus,the smart city subject lies at the border of several domains such as urban planning,architecture or business. The paper aims to define the concept of smart city and to present the evolution of the world’s smartest city in recent years. It illustrates the way smart cities are assessed according to a specific index,Cities in Motion Index. The paper shows that the world’s smartest cities were from Europe and the United States of America in the period 2014-2017.
