Abstract
The paper mainly reflects on the significance of IoT within smart cities. It is found that in the
recent years, the population within urban areas can growth and that raise a number of issues
for the people living there. In order to provide proper living facility, it is needed to use IoT
within urban areas so that the urban areas can be transferred into smart cities. It is analyzed
that with the help of IoT, a number of facilities including waste management, traffic
management, pollution control as well as smart parking are provided. In spite of the
advantages, a number of security challenges generally occur. It is analyzed that for
undertaking this research, a number of journal articles as well as research papers are
provided. Furthermore, the timeline that is provided states that around 34days of time is
required for completing the research successfully.
