Ageing in a smart city poses concerns on sustainability from a model perspective

Abstract

Ageing is not formally in the core pillars of Smart City framework under the Sustainable Development Goals of United Nations. Its undermined significance is usually detected under some of these pillars connected with each other. Somehow not many measurements on ageing to positively or negatively influence smart city development are well-defined or in some sense provide solid insights to policy makers. This article tries to guide readers where ageing considerations should be recommended on any stages of smart city development and how research studies should look for or measure these performances and interconnections with no overlooking on ageing aspects.
