 or intelligent decision making\, and facilitates various services to impro
 ve the quality of urban living. The distributed network of intelligent sen
 sor nodes\, as well as data centers/clouds where sensor data are stored an

 rban challenges such as pollution\, energy efficiency\, security\, parking
 \, traffic\, transportation\, and others by utilizing advanced technologie
 s in data gathering and communications interconnectivity via the Internet.
