Multilevel Interaction in Smart City Projects

摘要

Interaction in the Smart City projects is considered in the paper. The essence of the concept of Smart Cities is revealed. Difficulties which are associated with the implementation of the Smart City projects are showed. The importance of interaction of all stakeholders is underlined. Background of the conception of smart cities is analyzed. The features of smart devices, smart home, and smart urban quarter are briefly discussed. Basic conditions that need to implement the conception of performance are determined. The key stakeholders of the Smart City projects are identified. The basic level of interaction in smart city projects is singled out. It refers to the planning level, the level of the project realization, the level of project teams, and the level of the executors. The specific features of interaction at every level are analyzed. Forming project teams as one of the most important tasks of interaction is defined. The non-forceful interaction theory for solve this problem is used. From the position of the theory, the importance of planning of information flow in the project team is grounded. Using the principle of Minimax for distribution of information flows is suggested. Some other features of distributed project teams are presented. Difficulties of separating project management from operating activities in the Smart City projects are displayed. Mechanisms of interaction in the Smart City projects, using decision support systems, are outlined. Some ways for refining the Smart City projects management are proposed.
