Abstract There is plenty of information created by various smart city services all around the world. Two main issues of smart cities are integration of information and improvement of empowerment of citizens' life. These problems mostly stem from the legacy point of view to cities. In legacy cities various systems define their own standards and protocols and there is no common language of communication between systems. Overcoming this frustration in order to be able to exchange huge amounts of valuable created information, this paper intends to propose the development of a general interface architecture to bridge the recognised gaps. This interface would follow knowledge management principles that will define how the information created by different smart systems will move through the defined architecture to become accessible by other smart systems. Afterward we explain how the proposed architecture could facilitate information exchange between different smart city systems. Outcome of this research will be a business scenario for the proposed architecture utilising Business Process Modelling and Notation (BPMN) tool. This scenario provides the ability for existing smart systems to interconnect with other systems in smart cities.
