Major Dimensions of Smart City: A Systematic Literature Review

Numerous smart city frameworks have arisen in recent years as a response to the global urbanization problem. The emergence of frameworks with their distinct dimensions causes confusion in the selection of a framework and the implementation of a smart city. Therefore, more thorough research on the smart city dimension is necessary to build a more comprehensive smart city framework. This study conducted a systematic literature review to find the most prevalent dimension in the subject by examining a collection of 30 papers from five reputable sources that discuss smart city frameworks. A total of 38 smart city dimensions were retrieved from 12 smart city frameworks and 9 smart city maturity models. The 38 dimensions are then categorized according to their similarity. This study results in six main categories of smart city dimensions, including economy, people, environment, government, living, and branding.
