Urban, Planning and Transport Research

In today’s society, urban development for a smart city is the greater responsibility for the citizens as the significant population of the world bides in urban localities; in the previous years, cities are significantly outstanding for the growth of the future life in this universe. Advancements in technological innovations seek crucial changes in all sectors, where the development of urban cities is not an exception. There is an immediate need to understand the inherent power of technological applications to revolutionise smart cities’ implications on urban development.

Bright city implications and intelligent tutoring systems pave the way for the transition of growth in transportation, education, health, and industry, supporting the sustainable development of urban society. Intelligent tutoring systems play a significant role in the computer-based education environment of academic education, especially in programming and mathematics education. The emergence of intelligent tutoring architecture personifies the education-by-performing model of cognitive knowledge accession. The main goal of an intelligent city implication lies in the smooth coordination between the public and private enterprises, which together joined to create and enable a data-based environment in the development of urban management. Innovative city implications involve various sensors, software, and network systems embedded with the help of technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big data analysis.

Moreover, research envisaged that innovative city technology is gaining more popularity among academicians and scholars for its distinctive properties. Thus, the intelligent city implications are actively noticeable in the development of urban society growth in building smart infrastructure, intelligent transportation, intelligent health sectors, intellectual city plans, practical usage of renewable resources to improve the standard quality of life for the public. Ongoing advancements of wireless-ad-hoc networks, ambulatory medical sensors, etc., provide better treatment for innovative healthcare, which aids in the sustainable growth of urban development.

Technological innovations implied for the urban development can transfigure the cities to a greater extent. However, the intelligent city implications and intelligent tutor in urban development still hold certain limitations to be observed. Such limitations are network issues, privacy threats, high-cost installation processes, data theft. Researchers and scholars are invited to present a theoretical research framework in this context. The Article Collection provides various opportunities to overcome the challenges in implying technological applications for urban development.

Scope of the Article Collection include but are not limited to the following topics:

• Trends and applications of intelligent city implications for urban development
• Frontier applications of urban sustainability through intelligent tutoring system
• Future perspectives of the implication of technologies for urban development
• Need of policies and legislations for the transformation of urban development
• Limitations and challenges in incorporating intelligent tutoring systems for urban development
• Practical approaches for innovative city applications
• Urban development: trends and objectives
• Importance of technological knowledge to overcome challenges in the development of urban society
• Intelligent city implications: pros and cons for urban development
• Risk factors correlated with the introduction of innovative technologies got urban development
• Promotion of innovative programs for the enhancement of urban sustainability
• Role of intelligent city implications in the development of urban society
