An evolutionary note on smart city development in China Personal View
Ruizhi LIAO(1,2), Liping CHEN(3)
Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 6, Pages 966-974 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2100407
Urbanization is an important indicator of a country’s degree of modernization. According to the World Urbanization Report by the Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations, more than 55% of the world’s population lives in cities, with this figure projected to rise to 70% by 2050 (United Nations, 2018). China’s urban population accounts for 60% of the national total in 2020, and is expected to reach a very ambitious rate, 80%, by 2050 (Deloitte, 2018). More people living in cities means more contests over limited urban resources, such as water, housing, transportation, education, and health care. To cope with the challenges brought by the urbanization trend, David Bollier from the University of Southern California raised a new idea for city planning: a comprehensive network and applications of information techno-logies (Bollier, 1998). IBM later echoed the idea and initiated its Smart Planet vision in 2008 (Palmisano, 2008). At that time, it was a brand new concept to empower and transform urban infrastructure, services, and management. Quickly afterwards, the smart city concept has been adopted by major cities throughout the world, and it has gradually evolved into a strategic choice by ambitious cities—aiming to compete for urban development, and to provide easy-to-use but efficient functionalities. In this paper, we discuss the essence of a smart city, investigate three driving forces of smart city development in China, summarize the key features of smart cities in China and other countries, and raise four big challenges that deserve careful thoughts on building future smart cities.

In the context of extreme weather and frequent emergencies, strengthening the integration of resilient cities and smart cities will comprehensively enhance the resilience of cities and promote the modernization, digitalization, standardization, and sustainability of urban management. Smart resilient cities refer to integrating the new-generation information technology and dispatching systems of smart cities in city construction, thus to strengthen cities’ full-cycle resilience capacity to cope with major emergencies. This study elaborates the implication and development values of smart resilient cities, and analyses the challenges faced in smart resilient city construction. Moreover, it proposes a framework, ecology, pathways, and assessment indicators for smart resilient city construction, and clarifies the development elements and modes. Furthermore, we propose the following suggestions: (1) increasing public financial investment to upgrade infrastructure construction, (2) establishing sound emergency laws and regulations to improve social governance systems, (3) focusing on intelligent information technology construction to pursue technology-enabled development, and (4) playing a coordinating role of the government to promote multi-dimensional collaboration and governance, thereby driving the construction of smart resilient cities and supporting high-quality urban development.

The emerging prototype for a Smart City is one of an urban environment with a new generation of innovative services for transportation, energy distribution, healthcare, environmental monitoring, business, commerce, emergency response, and social activities. Enabling the technology for such a setting requires a viewpoint of Smart Cities as cyber-physical systems (CPSs) that include new software platforms and strict requirements for mobility, security, safety, privacy, and the processing of massive amounts of information. This paper identifies some key defining characteristics of a Smart City, discusses some lessons learned from viewing them as CPSs, and outlines some fundamental research issues that remain largely open.

The new-generation smart vehicles are intelligent network terminals that integrate smart vehicle, smart transportation, smart city, and smart energy (i.e., 4S integration). They move flexibly to connect the flow of people, materials, energy, and information of a city, and have more strategic values than traditional vehicles. This study aims to clarify the significance in developing the newgeneration smart vehicles based on 4S integration, determine the technology path for the innovative development of the new-generation smart vehicle industry, and establish a novel technology system by summarizing relevant key technologies. The new-generation smart vehicles based on 4S integration is an upgrade of smart vehicles in terms of value, function, and technology. China should select a smart vehicle technology path considering vehicle infrastructure cooperation to acquire the leadership in scientific and technological innovation. To establish the technology system of the new-generation smart vehicles based on 4S integration, the automation and connectivity levels of vehicles should be coordinated simultaneously, and common basic technologies such as big data, cloud computing, information, and communications should be promoted, together with the core key technologies related to vehicles, roads, and cloud. Furthermore, we propose suggestions from the aspects of top-level design, industrial integration, technological innovation, and practical implementation, hoping to provide theoretical references for long-term development of China’s smart vehicle industry.

China has become an aging society faced with difficult challenges. However, the country’s endowment system is still in the infant stage, and the pension problem has become one of the major problems that need to be solved promptly. Based on China's national policies, this paper proposes a "Medical-and-Care Wisdom Linkage" pension system with a large hospital for diagnosis and treatment as the centerpiece. This system can connect institutional pension models, community pension models, and family pension models by means of the Internet. At the same time, the system uses new cloud-based artificial intelligence for diagnosis and rehabilitation. Related practice has proven that using the Internet, advanced artificial intelligence, and other effective comprehensive treatment technologies to solve the current problems of China?s pension industry has important research value. These are also very promising efforts that are in line with national development strategies and relevant policies.

Urbanization is a potential factor in economic development, which is a main route to social development. As the scale of urbanization expands, the quality of the urban water environment may deteriorate, which can have a negative impact on sustainable urbanization. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the functions of the urban water environment is necessary, including its security, resources, ecology, landscape, culture, and economy. Furthermore, a deep analysis is required of the theoretical basis of the urban water environment, which is associated with geographical location, landscape ecology, and a low-carbon economy. In this paper, we expound the main principles for constructing a system for the urban water environment (including sustainable development, ecological priority, and regional differences), and suggest the content of an urban water environmental system. Such a system contains a natural water environment, an economic water environment, and a social water environment. The natural water environment is the base, an effective economic water environment is the focus, and a healthy social water environment is the essence of such a system. The construction of an urban water environment should rely on a comprehensive security system, complete scientific theory, and advanced technology.
