| Abstract |
The 21st century is known as the era of technological development and it is estimated by Cisco that by 2050 more than 50 billion devices will be connected to the internet. As more devices get connected to the internet it will change the way people live, work and play. Things will tend to become "SMART" and influence the lives of humans. With technological advancement and growth in industrialization, urbanization and population governments across the globe will need to devise sustainable development plans and hence in the recent years the notion of Smart City has been trending across the globe and governments are investing huge sums of money towards establishing smarter cities. A smart city is incomplete without a Smart Waste Management System and in this paper we have presented an Integrated Platform for Waste Management where smart bins are equipped with a network of sensors and they transmit real time data indicating the fill percentage of the bin. Depending on the status of the bin route optimization can be performed which indeed increases efficiency of fuel and time. The large amount of data collected can also be used to gain insights about the waste generated across cities. The ultimate motive behind this paper is to encourage and inspire people to do further research related to Smart Waste Management. |
