Smart World Living Lab: A Living Lab Approach to Improve Smart City Implementation (Introducing the DDG areas as an integrated Living Lab)

Abstract

Smart city implementation, including various smart solution projects, is widely applied to solve urban problems such as traffic, environment, safety, etc. However, many smart solutions fail to solve urban problems when implemented. This study proposes a living lab approach to help achieve the goals of smart city development. Furthermore, if another living lab approach only talks about one problem, our study discusses how the living lab integrates multiple problems into one platform that evaluates and monitors the living lab. This study also introduces and discusses DDG as an area that integrates multiple services. The DDG area is a pilot project of the integrated living lab that can manage some issues such as waste, mobility, and economy in an integrated living lab platform that provides information for decision making.
