A Business and Solution Architecture of the Smart City Operating System i-stack

摘要

the enforcement of the smart city operation requires a manageable infrastructure. The operating system (OS) installed in a computer controls every task the computer carries out and manages system resources. Similarly, i-stack, the smart city OS architecture designed by INESA, deems to support city-big-data-oriented cloud-based applications which governs and interacts with relevant city information infrastructure and terminals (such like the smart lighting infrastructure). It serves as a platform for the connection, communication and cooperation of smart city applications, with feasible, optimal and scalable computation/storage resource scheme operated. In this paper, we demonstrates the architecture, functions and features of i-stack, in particular, we have proposed a Business and Solution Architecture (BSA) of this smart city OS, so that sustainable smart city solutions could be created efficiently and conveniently
