Smart city projects now mainly focus on developing data management platforms. They help to store, process, visualize and provide data access for better services. The smart city knowledge management platform (KMP) is a more complex solution. Developing the city IT infrastructure based on KMP helps to achieve semantic interoperability between city actors and create a digital eco-system of smart services capable to negotiate, compete and cooperate. In this work, a detailed approach and step-by-step design and development instruction for KMP and semantic interoperability are presented.

Cities evolved into quite complex urban systems. The rigid management process must reflect the complexity of the current political, social, and economic environment. With the vast city growth, citizens experience new difficulties – traffic congestion, pollution, immigration, overcrowding, and inadequate services. In our research, we analyze problems and benefits that occur with the growing complexity and offer a new concept considering every city as a live and constantly developing complex adaptive system of many participants and actors that operate in an uncertain environment. These actors (residents, businesses, transport, energy, water supply providers, entertainment, and others) are the main elements of city life. The new concept of “Smart City 5.0” is based on a previously developed model of Smart City 4.0 (compared with Industry 4.0) and implements the Urban Digital Ecosystem, where every element can be represented by a smart agent operating on its behalf. It is shown that smart services can interact vertically and horizontally in the proposed ecosystem, supporting competition and cooperation behavior based on specialized network protocols for balancing the conflicting interests of different city actors. The chapter describes the design principles and the general architecture of the Urban Digital Ecosystem, including the basic agent of smart service, protocols of the agent’s negotiation, the architecture, and basic principles Smart City knowledge base. The developed evolutionary methodology of implementation will ensure a minimum of disruptions to city services during its transformation into an urban ecosystem to harmoniously balance all spheres of life and the contradictory interests of different city actors.

Cities’ population growth goes in hand with the development of new technologies that are becoming the key factor of the Smart City (SC) concept. It allows the implementation of efficient management solutions, operation, and sustainable development of a city to face the challenges of urbanization and improve the services for the citizens and visitors. The concept of the SC 5.0 was first presented in Svítek, Skobelev, and Kozhevnikov (2020), where the problems of the complexity of current cities due to rigid management processes, variety of infrastructure, and SC modules, systems, subsystems, and applications were described. To prove the concept, several practical examples were developed to cover the topics: modeling in SCs, practical implementation of multiagent technologies, the approach of creating city ontology and the city knowledge base as the instrument of semantic interoperability, and visualization possibilities of Smart Evropská as a SC Testbed used for teaching purposes. The new organizational structure is proposed based on knowledge graphs, and practical examples are shown. The applicability of knowledge graphs to be used in combination with data management platforms for monitoring SC key performance indicators (KPIs) and providing interoperability of services is presented.

This paper explores the future of intersections with a novel approach to traffic control and management. Our research delves into the concept of Smart Intersections, introducing their levels of increasing "smartness," and their potential impact on traffic flow and safety. From static control to advanced data collection and I2X communication, our findings offer a glimpse into a future where intersections are a key player in urban mobility. The benefits of implementing Smart Intersections include improved traffic flow, reduced congestion, increased safety, and more efficient use of resources. Our research highlights the potential for Smart Intersections to improve public transportation through bus and train prioritization at intersections. Building off this, Smart Intersections could also inform individual actors in advance and communicate the current status of traffic as well as gather additional data. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of Smart Intersections, from their current state to the highest level of smartness, and the steps necessary to make this technology a reality in a real-life example. It also explores alternative possibilities, such as multi-agent systems, and their possible application in Smart Intersections.

The Smart City concept for many years has relied on the principals of stainable development and implementing of information and communication technologies (ICT) for city services. With the COVID pandemic the paradigm shifted tremendously and the city governments, as well as scientists have to focus more on resilience strategies. The city managers now should make their decisions in conditions of limited information, unavailability to see and plan future development, maintain “what if” analysis to predict the results. Considering the Smart City as a complex system the new approach and digital platform that combines both sustainable and resilient modes of behavior are presented. This platform allows to perform normally in a sustainable mode and react adaptively when unpredictable events occur in the resilient mode.

The intensive economic and social development of smart cities faces the constraints of stable utility provision. This paper presents a multiagent client-centric smart grid management system for integrated gas, heat and electricity networks. The system is based on the new approach of agent’s negotiation implementing the strategies of straight and reverse recursion planning. It can be used as part of the Smart grid and Micro grid concepts to reduce the price for consumers and decrease the negative impact of peak loads for the suppliers. This approach corresponds to the fundamental principles of modern complexity theory, which uses the fundamental principles of self-organization and evolution inherent in the natural world.

The Smart Grid (SG) concept provides new services for citizens by exploiting the available resources and demonstrates a significant potential from the economic and business value viewpoint. In a real-time economy, it should act as a real-time solution. That means the adaptive reaction to all unpredictable events in the SG and real-time rescheduling the consumption and production plan (especially on peak or idle run hours). SG as the concept and software instrument can be applied not only for energy but also for all other resources, including gas and water. This paper presents a prototype of a multiagent system for adaptive planning of gas, water, and energy resources. We show that real-time services based on a multiagent engine working as an open market for all consumers and suppliers interacting in one SG can help provide better service and high efficiency and be a vital element of the Smart City concept.

Current intelligent transport systems (ITS) and trends in their development are weekly consider all involved elements and do not cover the topic of cooperative work of services. In this paper the concept of the cooperative ITS as a digital ecosystem (DE) of services, sensors, hardware devices and users is presented. This paper proposes a new approach based on the theory of complex adaptive systems and bio-inspired artificial intelligence (AI), which can show emergent intelligence behaviour. The proposed approach and software platform should not only integrate all smart transport services, but also provide control, self-organization and evolution of ITS. The software platform developed as DE enables physical or virtual organizations provide core services based on real time schedules and current state of their resources automatically, reactively or pro-actively, and only to the customers interested in these services. It will increase the service level for clients, reduce costs and delivery time, improve scalability, performance and reliability of ITS.

The field of smart cities and the latest problems in this area of expertise accent the need for interaction among different areas, such as transportation, energy management, education, buildings and others. New technologies and new methods allow for a fast development of each of the areas and of the city itself. At the same time, there is a need for further involvement of citizens and different stakeholders in the decision-making process within cities. In order to demonstrate the impact of a new policy (e.g., building a new shopping center) on certain city aspect (e.g., transportation), simulation models have been recognized as probably the best approach. Unfortunately, there is still no tool that would allow the stakeholders to evaluate the impact of such a policy on a city as a whole and from multiple perspectives. Dedicated simulation frameworks should be used in cooperation, one for transportation, one for energy grid management, another for its impact on the environment until all important aspects are covered. This paper describes a complex tool aiming on overcoming such complicated demands and giving the policy makers one tool to assess impact on different interconnected fields. It combines existing dedicated simulation frameworks into a complete software suite that can combine even contradictory results into one or more performance indicators. This can be used as a decision support system and help in involving citizens into the city government and planning. This article focuses on the utilization of mobility modelling in such a software.

The Smart City concept now entirely relies on information and communication technologies (ICT) with projects providing new or better services for city residents. The resilience of a city, from our perspective, should also rely on ICT. Resilience as a service implies predictive modelling and “what if” analysis for better reaction at unpredictable events and providing emergency services in critical modes of city life. Resilience as a property of a city means working as normally as possible for citizens when extreme events occur and also adaptively react and change the system’s behavior when normal mode has no chance to be applied. This paper provides a review and analysis of the resilient properties of existing Smart City frameworks and offers a new concept of a resilient city based on the Demand-Resource (DR) model, multi-agent system (MAS) and ontologies. The main idea of this concept is to create an ICT framework that is resilient by design. For this, it should operate as a digital ecosystem of smart services. The framework development process is divided into two main steps: first to create Smart City simulation software for modelling, planning, and strategic assessment of urban areas as a set of models at different levels of abstraction. The second step involves the full integration of all services in one dynamic adaptive real-time digital ecosystem with resilient properties.

Traditionally, cities evolved over time into current quite rigid urban conurbations. As complexity of our political, social and economic environment increases, cities begin to experience new pressures - traffic congestion, pollution, immigration, overcrowding, inadequacy of services, to mention just a few, which affect both citizens and visitors. Digital technology now exists that we could use to turn rigid cities into Urban Ecosystems. The paper provides an updated definition of Smart City as an Urban Ecosystem, it analyses problems experienced by cities caused by complexity of the Internet-based global economy and describes an advanced solution - to design cities as urban ecosystems capable of delivering services to citizens and visitors under conditions of complexity. The authors have developed an evolutionary methodology that ensure a minimum of disruptions to city services during its transformation into an urban ecosystem. Design of Smart City ontology is provided as an example.

In this paper, Smart City is described as a live and constantly developing complex adaptive system operating in an uncertain environment with many participants and actors involved. The vision of the "Smart City 5.0" concept as an ecosystem of smart services based on multi-agent technology is presented. lt is characterized by the cooperation of Artificial Intelligence sys­tems and humans, and can harmoniously balance all spheres of life and con­tradictory interests of different city actors. In this concept, each smart service is presented by an autonomous agent. They can compete or cooperate with each other through a service bus and internet both vertically and horizontally on the basis of specialized protocols. Top-level services can be constructed as auton­omous multi-agent systems of a lower level, where an agent can recursively reveal a new service for itself. The paper describes the design principals and the general architecture of the digital platform including the basic agent of smart service, the architecture and basic principles of smart city ontologies and knowledge base. The paper shows how the platform can support the decision­making life cycle for managing any urban object and the adaptive behaviour of Smart City 5.0 is compared with the fixed scenarios Smart City 4.0.

In the Smart City concept, it is beneficial to have a part of a city ready to use as a testbed (or better yet, a representative sample common for all cities). In this paper we offer a new approach for Smart City testbeds that will help analyze positive and negative consequences and show the opportunities of implementing new technologies. We analyze Smart City testbeds from a system science point of view and consider all important aspects and overlapping environments. By representing a Smart City as a working system of multiple actors or agents, we can achieve equilibrium in such aspects by making sure a proper topography and ontology are described and upheld.

In the paper, the new vision of “Smart City 5.0” is presented. It is based on a previously developed model of Smart City 4.0 and implementing the concept of the complex adaptive system for balancing conflict interests of different city actors. These actors can include business, transport, energy and water supply providers, entertainment and other services and can be unified based on resource and demand model. The paper describes the general principals, functionality and the architecture of the digital multi-agent platform for creating eco-system of “Smart City 5.0”. It is designed as holonic p2p network of smart services and technological components for supporting demand-resource relations. It is shown that in proposed eco-system smart services can interact both vertically and horizontally supporting competition and cooperation behavior on the basis of specialized protocols of p2p network. In the future, each smart service is considered as an autonomous cyber-physical multi-agent system which can be decomposed on a lower level of smaller services recursively. The first prototypes of smart services and their interaction are presented, the next steps for future research work are outlined.

—Smart City is now widely discussed and applied to all disciplines where Public transport is one of them. The aim of this paper is to define dynamic public transport in Smart City and describe transport organisation using multi-agent systems based on different data sources. Input parameters from the sensor network represent on-line demand for public transport. The better understanding of the demand for public transport the better offer can public transport operator provide to citizens. The more satisfied costumers the more attractive will be the public transport in the city. The dynamic public transport offer is computed by multi-agent system that continuously process all available on-line data and propose dynamic routes and time-schedules of different public transport means (small buses, etc.).

The last mile problem is crucially important for big cities because it is difficult to find the ideal balance between different criteria: the mobility of people, comfort and unique characteristics of every person, the profit of transport system and other criteria in more complex models. To solve this problem for dynamic (not fixed) routes part, we offer to use ontological description of citizens and transport system for matching and multi agent technologies to plan different types of transport. To prove the idea a prototype of an intelligent multiagent transport system matcher was created. Based on a simple model with basic Person, Transport and Infrastructure description we proved the feasibility of the approach. In this paper for the first time, we present the Smart Transport System as a personal service provided for citizens. The main idea of the work to make a step for changing the current paradigm where people adjust their plans for transport schedules. The new paradigm will show how smart transport can provide personal service to every citizen according to their needs.
