Title Orchestrating Access to Smart City Services
Year 2015
Published
Abstract Smart cities are poised to provide innovative public services to citizens, communities, corporations, and governmental bodies. Realization and management of these services is assumed to take place centrally, and according to well-defined policies established by city authorities. However, the proliferation of connected devices and crowd-sensing made it possible for ad hoc services to emerge before strict policies and architectures were enforced, and with little provision of interoperability. Furthermore, many existing services in today's cities use networks of privately-owned smart devices, which confine such services to local domains because of ownership and corporate governance. We propose a resource cooperation approach that orchestrates access to connected devices across local domains in order to compose new and potentially large-scale services that are not necessarily bound by local ownership. The resource cooperation approach makes informed recruitment of network segments from local network domains in response to stakeholder queries, which will be posted to a centralized authority responsible for smart city services. Our approach aims at maximizing the utility of city-wide services while maintaining local governance and minimizing performance degradation of service provisioning within local domains. The approach will also facilitate the composition of new smart city services from existing heterogeneous resources, thus minimizing the need to deploy dedicated service infrastructures.
