La Smart City rappresenta uno dei principali ambiti in cui l'Internet of Things giocherà in Italia e nel mondo, grazie alla varietà di usi possibili e alla sua funzione abilitante nella trasformazione delle città. Il tema della Smart City è particolarmente rilevante a causa delle sfide che stanno attualmente interessando le aree urbane di tutto il mondo, come l'urbanizzazione e la necessità di ridurre l'impronta ambientale. Inoltre, l'emergenza COVID-19 ha fortemente sconvolto i modelli di comportamento consolidati, costruendo una nuova normalità in cui i cittadini presentano un atteggiamento più accomodante nei confronti delle innovazioni tecnologiche e delle soluzioni intelligenti per supportare le loro attività quotidiane. La tesi ripercorre una rassegna della letteratura sui temi Smart City e Internet of Things al fine di concettualizzare un quadro generale di relazioni tra stakeholder e tecnologie che collaborano con l'obiettivo finale di creare valore pubblico e benefici per i cittadini. Inoltre, sono stati effettuati un sondaggio e un censimento per supportare la teoria con applicazioni di vita reale ed esperienze sul campo.

Abstract
The Smart City represents one of the main fields in which the Internet of Things will play in Italy and worldwide, thanks to the variety of possible uses and its enabling function in the transformation of cities. The Smart City theme is especially relevant due to the challenges that are currently affecting urban areas all over the world such as urbanisation and the need to reduce the environmental footprint. Furthermore, the COVID-19 emergency has heavily disrupted established patterns of behaviours consequently building a new normal in which citizens portray a more accommodating attitude towards technological innovations and smart solutions to support their daily activities. The thesis goes over a literature review of Smart City and Internet of Things topics in order to conceptualise a general framework of relationships between stakeholders and technologies collaborating with the final aim of creating public value and attainable benefits for citizens. Additionally, a survey and a census were carried out to support the theory with real life applications and first-hand experiences.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
