CALL FOR RESEARCH PAPERS
In collaboration with the Street Art & Urban Creativity Journal, Smart City Expo World Congress is launching this Call for Research Papers to accelerate knowledge exchange and impact.
AI FOR CITIES:
Generative AI, Digital Twin Simulators for Advanced Urban Efficiency, Quality of Life, and Resiliency
As new technologies, particularly in applied AI, rapidly evolve, cities must integrate the latest innovations to enhance services and attract talent and investment. Given the complexity of public contracting processes, cities can’t afford to wait for developments to become commercial products.
