description
Summary of activ‐ IEC SMB set up smart city system evaluation group in June 2013. As a first step SEG‐1
ities formed 3 Task Groups with the aim of a) identifying state of the art and potential gaps
to address the IEC standardization needs with respect to smart cities; b) filling any gaps
by outlining a roadmap of smart cities standardization, architectures and prospective
standardization projects including a reference architecture; and c) aligning terms and
definitions in the electrotechnical field referring to smart cities. SEG‐1 set up 8 working
groups to research the market needs and relevance, business drivers that are relevant
to the area being studied. The specific study areas from the working groups are:
– WG1: City Service Continuity
– WG2: Urban Planning and Simulation System
– WG3: City Facilities Management
– WG4: Use Case – Smart Homes
– WG5: Use Case – Smart Education
– WG6: Smart Cities Assessment
– WG7: Standards development for Smart Cities – City of Johannesburg, South Africa
– WG8: Mobility and Logistics in Cities
For the purposes of harmonizing and advancing Smart City activities in the IEC, the SEG on Smart
Cities recommends to transition into a full Systems Committee (SyC) on Smart Cities.
