Abstract: UEvery day, we are stepping towards to lead a smart life within a smart world, thanks of IoT smart applications. The continually need for new urban systems including smart infrastructures, smart energy grids and smart mobility systems makes appear of a new concept, named: “Smart City”. This concept represents one of the most promising challenges of IoT applications since it involves the enhancement of our lifestyle. Among its promising advantage we can cites: the reducing resource consumption, the real-time guidance for citizens, the transportation facilities, etc. In this paper, we propose, first, a literature review on researches addressing many aspects of Smart City. Second, we provide a comparative study between these researches on the basic of multiple criteria like interoperability, scalability, security, etc.
