“…A specific example of CR integration is SmartRescue, which aims at using advanced sensors in smartphones to assist in acute crises. The data transmit through a mobile publish‐subscribe (P/S) system enabling emergency management practitioners and the public to assess the hazard and understand location needs, as well as form a threat picture and user‐centric evacuation plans (Radianti, Dugdale, Gonzalez, & Granmo, ). The challenge with this system is lack of available spectrum for urban areas, which is a significant obstacle for public safety, along with a compatible, flexible communication systems.…”

The field of emergency and crisis management continuously strives to enhance collaboration, communication, and coordination among public safety organizations. Successful integration is challenging due to current policies and regulations. Moreover, policymakers must predict future needs. Regardless of the challenges, development and growth of a national public safety communication system is no longer a hopeless cause and is anticipated to mitigate challenges by enhancing security, dependability and fault tolerance, cost effectiveness, interoperability, spectral efficiency, and advanced capabilities. Although this national public safety communication system is in the process of being implemented by various local, state, and federal agencies, such adoption is voluntary and attributes to a disconnect between policies and stakeholders. This study reviews the evolution of public safety communication system and discusses benefits and challenges of a national system, the policies and regulations affecting wireless communication technologies and spectrum sharing, and the influence of evolving technologies.

“…In the literature there are already some papers that address the need to create a smart emergency system. A good example of this is (Radianti et al, 2014), where the authors present emergency systems and then start to develop a platform that intends to mimic these systems in a smarter way. The authors used a smartphone based publish-subscribe system to accomplish this.…”

“…This translates into a much more transparent system, because the publisher can send information to the subscribers and vice versa. Finally in (Radianti et al, 2014) their publishers are treated as the ones that generate information in the form of events. Subscribers are treated as the ones that subscribe to arbitrary flows of information.…”

Smart cities are usually defined as modern cities with smooth information processes, facilitation mechanisms for creativity and innovativeness, and smart and sustainable solutions promoted through service platforms. With the objective of improving citizen's quality of life and quickly and efficiently make informed decisions, authorities try to monitor all information of city systems. Smart cities provide the integration of all systems in the city via a centralized command centre, which provides a holistic view of it. As smart cities emerge, old systems already in place are trying to evolve to become smarter, although these systems have many specific needs that need to be attended. With the intent to suit the needs of specific systems the focus of this work is to gather viable information that leads to analyse and, present solutions to address their current shortcomings. In order to understand the most scalable, adaptable and interoperable architecture for the problem, existing architectures will be analysed as well as the algorithms that make them work. To this end, we propose a new architecture to smart cities.
