Couverture / Jaquette

This book provides a thorough guide to building resilient cities, through the use of smart solutions enabled by information and communication technologies. It introduces innovative approaches for integrating smart solutions into urban resilience planning and offers numerous global case studies to illustrate the benefits of the theories discussed. Against a background of increased natural disasters, pandemics, and climate change, this book answers research questions such as: ¿ Do smart city projects contribute to urban climate resilience?¿ What are the indicators of smart city resilience?¿ What procedures should be taken to improve efficacy of smart city solutions?¿ What are the opportunities and challenges for promoting smart city resilience and for integrating resilience thinking into smart city planning? Including contributions from international experts, explanatory illustrations, and data-driven tables, this book is of interest to researchers, policymakers, and graduate students focused on developing more sustainable, smart, and resilient cities.

Note biographique

Professor Ayyoob Sharifi has extensive experience of research and teaching in areas related to urban planning, urban resilience, smart cities, and climate change adaptation and mitigation. From 2013 to 2017, he was the director of the Global Carbon Project, one of the core projects of the Future Earth initiative, leading the project's flagship research initiative on urban carbon management. Since 2018, he has served as an associate professor at Hiroshima University, contributing to research and teaching activities related to urban resilience, smart cities, and climate change adaptation/mitigation. He has also actively contributed to global change research programs such as the Future Earth and currently is serving as a lead author for the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Through these contributions, he has collaborated with an extended network of researchers and scientists with expertise in the fields of urban sustainability and resilience.
