Smart cities
Abstract
The smart city idea refers to new ways of organising city functions and urban life, which are believed to move production and consumption from global to local, manufacturing from competitive to collaborative, and business from a shareholder to a multiple-stakeholder point of view. Most previous research has focussed on the societal level of smart cities, while less seems to be known about the management of business as part of smart cities. The purpose of this paper is to present a literature review on the state of the art of management research on smart cities. The following research question is addressed: How has previous research captured the management of organisations in smart cities?
... Therefore, the challenges that city managers face are increasingly complex, driven by new paradigms of "smart" innovation, as well as by the complexities of the city's heterogeneous "environment" (Öberg, Graham, & Hennelly, 2017). Open innovation allows organizations to increase the acquisition 19th International Conference on the Ethical and Social Impacts of ICT of knowledge and technology, strengthening partnerships to develop innovation (Santoro et al., 2018), to explore how new technologies and ideas to respond to the challenges of cities (Ferretti & Schiavone, 2016). ...
... During recent years, the 'smart city' concept has emerged in literature (e.g., Kunttu, 2019;Markkula & Kune, 2018;Öberg, Graham, & Hennelly, 2017;Visvizi & Lytras, 2018). Inherently, the smart city concept includes urban innovation; therefore, simply developing and applying technology is not enough for success. ...
UNESCO World Heritage cities can become smart cities if they take into account their cultural heritage and integrate diverse actors, including universities in their innovation practices. This article addresses the hackathon as an innovation contest method in the urban and educational context. Specifically, it concentrates on hackathon design, particularly the focus of the event, as well as the outputs. Although the design plays an integral part in a hackathon, particularly in goal achievement, design has not yet been thoroughly studied in mainly descriptive hackathon research. To address the subject, this article presents a case study of a dual-focused, i.e., combined urban and educational hackathon in the City of Rauma, which has a World Heritage Old Town that aims to integrate its historical uniqueness with modern city services. As a result, the article portrays the process and outputs of a hackathon carried out with the collaboration of two higher education institutions (HEIs) and the Entrepreneur Association of Rauma. Presenting conclusions for both academics and the public sector, the article contributes to the literature on urban and educational hackathons in smart cities with a heritage context.
Revisões sistemáticas de literatura indicam lacunas que necessitam ser analisadas em pesquisas futuras para contribuição ao campo de Smart Cities. Este artigo objetiva averiguar a amplitude e qualidade das RSL que estão sendo realizadas ao tema de Smart Cities. Portanto, uma Revisão Sistemática de Literatura foi conduzida, analisando 22 artigos, conforme etapas propostas por Brereton et al. (2007). Os resultados apontam que algumas etapas não foram atendidas pelos pesquisadores. As lições aprendidas foram: revisar a pergunta da pesquisa durante o protocolo pode aumentar a compreensão do problema que conduz à necessidade do estudo; validar o protocolo permitirá encontrar erros nos procedimentos de coleta de dados e legitimar os critérios de seleção dos artigos; realizar a validação do relatório final, permitirá detectar e corrigir erros e as estratégias que foram usadas no campo para garantir a autenticidade do estudo. Estas lições permitirão aos pesquisadores maior rigor na execução de futuras RSL. Este artigo contribui com o campo de Cidades Inteligentes ao demonstrar a importância que etapas relevantes de uma RSL podem trazer maior legitimidade, rigor e qualidade nos estudos realizados.
