| Abstract |
We begin by considering the grand challenge to design application platforms that will enable the smart city. We identify two fundamental research challenges: 1. Cross infrastructure Management Systems to coordinate resource use in a city; 2. Services Platforms that promote collective and individual intelligence. Next we report research progress in the design of application platforms that can support the smart applications required in the smart city. In particular, we describe the SAVI (Smart Applications on Virtual Infrastructure) application platform testbed for research in smart applications and its design using software-defined infrastructure. We present the CVST (Connected Vehicles and Smart Transportation) Platform for Intelligent Transportation Services in the Greater Toronto area, which runs on the SAVI testbed. Its design provides the intelligence to enable smart management in smart cities. We end with a discussion of general principles for the design of smart infrastructures. |
