Considering Future Internet on the Basis of Smart Urban Cities A Client-City Architecture for Viable Smart Cities

The Internet has been experienced as the means for deliberation, for free social expression, for knowledge exchange, for enabling entrepreneurship. etc., while it has been capitalized by communities around the world for applications’ development and for e-service deployment. In this paper Internet is considered as a supporting tool for communities’ growth and wealth, and in this context the local history and experiences are viewed as the basis to focus on the future. Communities grow in organized spaces called cities. Cities did and do not emerge to the same levels, since geographic, financial, political and other variants influence this evolution. However, some cities show significant growth without meeting some of the abovementioned criteria, mainly due to the fact that some civilians present particular intelligence and enthusiasm. Various exemplars of isolated spaces were evolved due to the intelligence of some habitants, which were followed by their future generations. In this paper, this particularity structures a hypothesis, considering that the Future Internet can be based on the Smart Cities, where intelligence and experiences can be created, stored and accessed faster at a metropolitan level, limit data traffic to local areas and free significant resources of the Internet. The novel client-city architecture is proposed to support this hypothesis.
