Advanced smart home and city technologies for sustainable and intelligent living : smart city development in Vietnam

Abstract

This thesis is about how smart cities are developing in Vietnam today. Smart cities in Vietnam, focus on technological, social, and economic developments. With rapid urbanization and digital transformation, Vietnam is currently implementing smart city models to address urban challenges, improve citizen quality of life, and enhance government efficiency. Through qualitative analysis and case studies, the research provides insights into the opportunities and challenges facing Vietnam as it moves toward building fully smart cities. The results show that while there has been a lot of achievement progress, there are still primary challenges to achieving the objectives of smart city development, especially a shortage of digital literacy, different availability of technology, and infrastructural issues.
