Abstract Smart cities involve complex sociotechnical systems which are built on the flows of an increasing amount of data coming from multiple sensors, thanks to the technology of the Internet of Things. In this context, smart cities aim to provide sustainable urban development worldwide. This paper presents the results of world practice benchmarking for 20 smart cities and it seeks to determine the most successful cases that could be of interest for better urban development. B. Cohen's Smart City Wheel was used as the system of indicators, and expert assessment, document analysis, and statistical methods were applied to the research. Results indicate that the cases of Songdo, Singapore, Melbourne, Bodo, Delft and Toronto got the highest marks. Also, the level of resource management, e-government infrastructure, education and safety indicators showed a positive impact on the other smart city components. (C) 2018 The Authors.
