According to this paper in the world of assets and information there exists numerous
approaches related to making attempts for staying in the top amongst the millions of real-time
interactions and the communication devices. The paper states that these type of systems are
generally based upon the IoT technologies which are aimed at the exploitation of the assets in a
resilient as well as in a sustainable way which in turn is associated with allowing them in
reaching eth full potential. The paper has been associated with presenting two unique smart city
applications and this is includes the system of energy and heat which has targeted to utilize
different resources in order to reduce the wastage of the energy at the various industrial places as
well as the residential fields. Another application includes the crucial public transport system
which is aimed at the utilization of various resources in order to provide certain
recommendations which would be aimed at efficiency of the economy. The paper has also been
associated with highlighting the various challenges that are faced during the IoT implementation
and the potentials related to enabling of the technologies so as to allow in the process of realizing
the architecture that has been provided.

According to this paper the increased population in the urban regions has been associated
with demanding an adequate provision related to the services and the infrastructure for the
purpose of meeting the requirements that the inhabitants of a city is having. For this reason there
is a need of maximum utilization of various communication and information technologies for the
purpose of achieving the objectives. This in turn is associated with presenting on itself is a scope
related to the implementation of the smart cities and this is the place where the city management
along with the populations seem to be alike and are provided with the access to the various real-
time data related to the environment of urban area. This information will act as the fundamental
aspect for yje decisions, future planning and the required action. The article also explained a
holistic structure which helps in realizing of the smart cities by implementation of the IoT
technology. The framework is also associated with providing solution which are all-
encompassing for having a sensory level comprehensive information system for urban areas as
well as from the networking supporting structure all throughout the information management
process as well as the implementation of the cyber-physical techniques based on cloud, which
are already existing. The main vision of this paper includes the analysis of the smart city using
IoT technology for noise mapping case study which in turn is associated with illustration of a
new method that is to be used by all the existing operations which can be adopted for the purpose
of enhancing the services inside a city.

According to this paper connection is one of the most fundamental building block that the
paradigm of IoT is having. Currently, there has been 2 significant approaches for providing
access to the information of things and this is either based upon the implementation of short-
range communication technologies with multi-hop in the unlicensed process or is associate with
the usage of the long-range legacy cellular technologies which mainly includes the 2G or the
GSM or the GPRS which are operating in the corresponding licensed frequency bands.
According to this paper the modules has faced challenged by the recent wireless connections
which are fundamentally build with different features such as the long-range transmission
technology, low-rate in the sub-gigahertz frequency bands which are unlicensed. Fundamental
used of this is for the purpose of realizing the access networks by usage of the star topology,
which is also called low power wans or lpwans. The article has been associated with the
introduction of a new technique for the purpose of providing of an efficient connection in the IoT
situation. The benefits over the implementation grounds has also been discussed for the sake of
the effectiveness, efficiency and the architectural structure particularly for the smart cities
implementation.
