“…Today, cities are more polluted than villages. Therefore, cities and other communities must be made more sustainable (Maestre-Gongora and Bernal, 2019). Political leaders who are handling different portfolios and who are closely related to industry can act as influencers and guide industry towards the SDGs (Weerakkody et al , 2011).…”

PurposeThe importance and criticality of sustainable development goals is witnessed by 195 member countries. For its full-fledged adoption and implementation, it needs to be understood by masses and political leaders are critical agents those engage diverse communities through social media such as twitter. Therefore, in this study focuses on how political leaders can influence the sustainable development goals through Twitter.Design/methodology/approachThis study examines the social media conversations of political leaders on Twitter. Social media analytics methods such as sentiment mining, topic modelling and content analysis-based methods have been used.FindingsThe findings indicate that most political leaders are primarily discussing the sustainable development goals (SDGs) “partnership for goals” and “peace, justice and strong institutions”. Many other goals such as “clean water and sanitation”, “life below water”, “zero hunger”, “no poverty” and “educational quality” are not being focused on.Research limitations/implicationsThis study offers implications in terms of collective decision making and the role of policy makers towards the goals of promoting SDGs. The authors highlight how political leaders need to involve key stakeholders in this journey.Originality/valueThis study scores and provides a cohort-specific prioritization of the leadership within these countries with regard to SDGs, which could be beneficial to the society.

“…Corresponding users can execute server-side applications only through browsers, and do not need to install special client-side software on their computers. These features of the B/S structure make it easier to upgrade the system, which provides a lot of convenience for the expansion and upgrade of the subsidy management system, thereby reducing the work pressure of the system administrator [11,12]. This is also the main reason why the system adopts B/S structure.…”

As for the financial aid information management for students with financial difficulties, due to the wide range of financial aid and subsidy objects, various subsidy types, inconsistent time and complicated subsidy review and approval processes, the work of subsidy information management staff are very headache, and it is difficult to improve work efficiency. With the increasing complexity and difficulty of poverty aid work in colleges and universities (CAU), the advantages of informatization are used to integrate poverty aid work into the management of CAU. The random forest algorithm screens and organizes data, realizes intelligent information management, and enhances precise funding for poor college students. This paper uses the B/S structure to build the platform architecture of the funding information management system, and sets up multiple functional modules for the system. After the system design is completed, the CPU, memory and disk usage of the system are tested. It is found that with the increase of concurrent users, its the share has also increased. In the system, the informatization of financial aid application and poverty identification management has been realized, the identification work can be completed more concisely and efficiently, and the update of student poverty information is also very convenient.

“…• The second strand of literature reports on a mixture of urban planning, political and environmental issues of smart cities. Studies found in this strand generally aimed to define the concept, scope, services and trends of smart city from a macro level (Maestre-Gongora & Bernal, 2019;Kirimtat et al, 2020), establish appropriate policies and plans for smart city development (Caragliu and Del Bo, 2019;Angelidou, 2017), measure the performance of smart cities with diverse indicators (Pinna et al, 2017;, and explore sustainability and environmental effects of smart cities (Aina, 2017;Haarstad and Wathne 2019). • The third strand of literature joins up the first two strands with socio-technical angles that stress on the importance and intersection of information, technology, organization and citizens in smart cities.…”

Aligned with the global trend of smartness, China has invested heavily in over 700 smart city projects across over 500 cities. Hundreds of smart city apps, initiated by local authorities, have so emerged in the daily lives of Chinese citizens, but anecdotal evidence showed that these official apps have many problems and deficiencies. This study captures a snapshot of current development and problems of official smart city apps in China. A total of 333 such apps, together with 15754 comments, were collected, reviewed and analyzed. The results showed that China’s smart city apps fall into three application areas, i.e. smart transportation, smart healthcare, and smart livelihood, of which each provides some promising features and services. However, a range of functional, interface, design, usage and service-related problems were found in these apps. This paper concluded that further to the very efforts on infrastructure and hardware, local authorities in China and worldwide need to pay more attention to smart apps, in order to maximize potential return of their smart city investments.
