Provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of transforming cities into intelligent systems using IoT-based design models and sustainable development projects. The publication looks at how cities can be built as smart cities within limited resources and existing advanced technologies.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the Third International Multi-topic Conference on Communications, Technologies, Information Security and Sustainable Development, IMTIC 2013, held in Jamshoro, Pakistan, in December 2013. The 27 revised papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 140 submissions. The topics presented had a reasonable balance between theory and practice in multi-disciplined topics including wireless sensor networks, cloud computing, wireless communication, antenna design, signal processing, software engineering, image processing, bioinformatics and telemedicine, neural networks, automation and control, and green renewable energy.

The international multi-topic conference IMTIC 2008 was held in Pakistan during April 11–12, 2008. It was a joint venture between Mehran University, Jamshoro, Sindh and Aalborg University, Esbjerg, Denmark. Apart from the two-day main event, two workshops were also held: the Workshop on Creating Social Semantic Web 2.0 Information Spaces and the Workshop on Wireless Sensor Networks. Two hundred participants registered for the main conference from 24 countries and 43 papers were presented; the two workshops had overwhelming support and over 400 delegates registered. IMTIC 2008 served as a platform for international scientists and the engineering community in general, and in particular for local scientists and the engineering c- munity to share and cooperate in various fields of interest. The topics presented had a reasonable balance between theory and practice in multidisciplinary topics. The c- ference also had excellent topics covered by the keynote speeches keeping in view the local requirements, which served as a stimulus for students as well as experienced participants. The Program Committee and various other committees were experts in their areas and each paper went through a double-blind peer review process. The c- ference received 135 submissions of which only 46 papers were selected for presen- tion: an acceptance rate of 34%.
