Sažetak
The continuous urbanization and technological advancement forces city planners to be more creative and supported by approaches that enable an abstract perspective on the complex reality as recent studies have demonstrated. The need to plan integral systems that can process massive amounts of data (for services such as smart parking, smart mobility provision, real-time monitoring, or citizen safety/security management) ; the great availability of different commercial ICT solutions ; and the need for devising new business models and services – all pose a real challenge for city planners. The described context is an ideal one for using concepts, models and tools from (discrete) simulation domain. The paper systematically reviews relevant studies where discrete event simulation has been used to support the design of the enabling ICT infrastructure for smart cities, either as a tool to predict the impact on user behaviors for the purpose of improving (key) urban business processes or to devise complex what-if scenarios related to present-day smart city challenges. Following the literature review, the studies are mapped to eight different categories (engagement and community, economic development and housing, energy, waste, water, mobility, security, and healthcare) followed by the discussion and identification of the promising scenarios for decision making in these specific areas.
