To develop the (4) Legal smart cities is needs to follow the standard policies and process. The concept of a smart city is connected with usage of a vast amount of data as well as with the development of technology and innovations. One cannot overlook the laws on the protection of personal data as well as IT/IP regulations. The (5) Technology can gives the benefits for various devices and components can be connected with each other to facilitate real-time decision making. From that, information and communication technology can increase the sustainability and improve quality of life for the citizens.

THE JOURNAL SUMMARY

The purpose of the authors in this study is to observe the connections between smart city features as conceptualized in the framework and new technologies as tools, and sustainability as the goal, especially in relation to the modern configuration of urban and metropolitan areas in the so-called smartization process. The connections are identified through a content analysis performed using NVivo on official reports issued by organizations, known as industry players within smart city projects. The results frame ICT and sustainability as “across-the-board elements” because they connect with all of the services provided to communities in a smart city and play a key role in smart city planning. Specifically, sustainability and ICT can be seen as tools to enable the smartization process. The purpose are useful to city managers or large corporations partnering with local agencies in order to increase the opportunities for the long-term success of smart projects. It are useful to city managers or large corporations partnering with local agencies in order to increase the opportunities for the long-term success of smart projects. The results are delineate a new research path looking at the development of new models that integrate drivers, ICT, and sustainability in an all-in-one perspective and new indicators for the evaluation of the interventions.

3. Digitalization and Information Management in Smart City Government: Requirements for Organizational and Managerial Project Policy
By : Antti Syväjärvi 

THE JOURNAL SUMMARY

Digital governance and information management have changed the ways city governments are organized and public services delivered. Unlike the research that has concentrated on private sector developments from digital or business perspective, studies taking place in the public sector context must also take the dynamics of e-government into consideration. In this research, the empirical material was produced by interviewing high-position managers in city governments. Both individual thematic interviews and focus group interviews were done to scrutinize the organizational and management implications of ICT and data mining in information management. The authors' findings indicate that the managers view how information management quite often falls short in providing and presenting relevant information for all parties in city governance. Currently digital information management practices are fragmented and scattered over projects. It is concluded that issues related to the practices of organizing ICTs and projects in smart city government, and additionally the human dimension related to information management, should be addressed more thoroughly to increase understanding about the smart city governance. Furthermore, activities are needed on behalf of a more mature information management. The desire and possibilities of the public sector to generate, collect and utilize data is increasing in an era of virtualization. Information and communication technology (ICT), information management and the related processes of digital information transfer influence the ways cities are organized and how local services are developed. It is the virtualization itself that not only accelerates old processes, but also creates new time and space, new ways of organizing.

4. Smart City as Urban Innovation: Focusing on Management, Policy, and Context 
 By: Taewoo Nam and Theresa A. Pardo 



VARIABLES:
These are variables used in the framework

- Technology
- Organizational
- Policy
- Context


THE JOURNAL SUMMARY

The authors in this study assessed the smart city movement as innovation comprised of technology, management and policy. A technology innovation is a mechanism to change and upgrade technological tools to improve services and create conditions where the tools can be better used.
Organization innovation is a mechanism to create managerial and organizational capabilities for effective use of technological tools and conditions. Managerial innovativeness is the most compelling reason why municipal governments adopt new ICT in their core functions according to Moon and Norris. It is because managerial innovation affects the degree of technological innovation and administrative innovation.
Policy innovation is a mechanism to address institutional and non-technical urban problems and create conditions enabling for a smart city.While technology is a tool, innovation in policy can lead to using the tool in a smart way. Innovative government stresses changes in policy, because government cannot innovate without a normative drive.Whereas innovation in technology broadly agreed, innovation in policy is a bit unclear.

By Hsiaoping Yeh



VARIABLE:
These are variables used in the framework

Quality of life
- Innovation concept
- Personal innovatives
- City management
- Services quality
- Perceived privacy
- Trust

According to the author of the study, “Smart cities contribute to social stability and economic prosperity by encouraging and enabling corporations to invest their resources and expertise in the cities, and by providing more prosperity and contentment for their citizens.” The study assessed the effects of successful ICT-based smart city services from the citizens' perspectives through the research hypotheses and questionnaire that were validated based on the opinions of a focus group of information management and government service academics and researchers who were asked whether the items were appropriate for evaluating the research framework. The first hypothesis is (1) Citizens' acceptance and usage of the ICT-based SC services positively affect their perceived quality of life. (2) The innovation concept of ICT-based SC services positively affects citizens' acceptance and usage of the ICT-based SC services. (3) Citizens' personal innovativeness positively moderates the effects of their acceptance and usage of ICT-based SC services on their perceived quality of life. (4) Citizens' civic engagement positively affects their acceptance and usage of the ICT-based SC services. (5) The service quality of ICT-based SC services positively affects citizens' acceptance and usage of ICT-based SC services. (6) Citizens' perceived privacy negatively affects their trust in ICT-based SC services. (7) Citizens' trust in the ICT-based SC services positively affects their acceptance and usage of the ICT-based SC services.
