Sharing Sustainable & Smart City in the Perspective of China’s Urbanization

Smart City is a global trend to integrate multiple information and communication technology to manage a city’s assets and meet challenges of technological, economic and environmental changes. Within the past few years, China has transformed from the traditional urbanization mode to the more sustainable way of urban development. The forum brings scholars and practitioners to share ideas and experience of Sustainable and Smart Cities in the global context and their implications for China and other countries.
