 HOANGOVÁ, Kim
This master thesis focuses on the use of new technologies within smart cities, analyzes their implementation with respect of the city of San Jose, California. Given the wide range of issues covered by the concept of smart cities, the thesis mainly focuses on four main areas shaping smart cities; It is about smart mobility, energy efficiency, safety and connectivity. These topics accompany the whole work; first in the theoretical and then followed by the practical part. The theoretical part introduces the reader to the issue of smart cities and introduces new technologies that can be used to improve the quality of life and the environment. The subsequent practical part of the work is a detailed analysis of the actual state of the city, prepared on the basis of city documents, publicly available information, media and press releases.

Development of Smart Cities in the region of Latin America
 Valová, Alena ; Macháček, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Těšitel, Jan (referee)
The aim of the thesis Development of Smart Cities in the region of Latin America applied on the case of Mexico City and Rio de Janeiro stands on their comparison provided according to application of six axes smart city concept. Both cities provide their individual approach in their formulation and implementation of smart city initiative. According to this comparison this paper will prove that even though that there is not yet a uniform smart city definition there are indicators according to which it is possible to form a general a framework to identify smart cities. This framework will be important to prove several things about smart cities. They will be necessary for the future growth of humanity as cities become more and more important. This will happen by allowing for better functioning of cities and better use of existing resources. These cities will start to operate for their citizens in ways that lessen the impact of the environment while allowing cities to grow across multiple sectors while improving quality of life among a city s residents. This implementation of ITC technologies will prove a rising tide that will lift the city s poor by empowering their economic lives by improving quality of life and giving better access to resources. The comparison of the two cities will also prove that Rio de Janeiro through its many smart initiatives is further along in its path to becoming a smart city than Mexico City. The difference between the two will also prove just how important smart cities are to the region s future. Mexico City s projects have not been as holistic as those taken in Brazil s largest city. Rio de Janeiro s implementation of projects like COR have transformed the city allowing it to become one of the smartest cities in the region and the world. The COR has implemented ITC technologies and initiatives that have transformed every sector of the six-axes approach model.
