Abstract:
Smart Cities and smart services delivered by them are considered a new paradigm in computer engineering. Due to the daily increase in usage of portable smart devices, as smartphones or smartwatches, which provide different sensors and connectivity facilities, they were used to design a framework and implement a wide-area network with distributed nodes in order to provide continuous and non intrusive interaction with various urban facilities. We focus on three main modules: hybrid human localization (Indoor and Outdoor) using Bluetooth Lite Energy (BLE), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), GPS (Global Positioning System) localization and the Smart City Framework (SCF), which handles interaction with various external services (i.e., transportation organization, municipal and traffic authorities). The communication between the two aforementioned modules is done via a mobile application, which interacts directly with the user and the remote SCF framework itself.
