“…An integrative literature review methodology was employed to present evidence similar to prior COVID-19 study [9]. Integrative literature review aims to expediently assess prior studies that are appropriate to the specific research topic in order to present a fair assessment of an investigated topic using a rigorous and trustworthy approach [31][32][33]. The methods employed for this study are discussed in the subsequent sub-sections.…”

The current health care crisis and the need for social distancing to protect medical practitioners and patients have necessitated the need to adopt new initiatives for the treatment of patients. One of such initiatives is the adoption of telemedicine which involves diagnosis or medical service provided by a consulting physician to patients digitally. Telemedicine is implemented using telecommunication technology either asynchronously or synchronously via audio and video systems. Therefore, this study adopts an integrative literature review to provide evidence on the role of telemedicine to support digital health care for the management of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Findings from this study present the benefits of integrating telemedicine for digital health care management. Additionally, findings discuss how telemedicine can be integrated for remote management of health care. Besides, recent polices and trends in telemedicine are discussed. Implications from this study discuss the challenges and recommendations on how telemedicine can be integrated into digital health care management during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study provides a timely guide on the potential of telemedicine to support digital health care, as a response to COVID-19 crisis now and into the future.

“…Some studies provide an overview of smart city projects and describe different case studies [5,22]. However, most research focuses on specific smart city domains, such as security and data protection [23][24][25], networking [26], detection of anomalies [27,28], transport [29][30][31], energy consumption [32][33][34], business [35] or government [36][37][38]. Thus, they centre on delimited problems that make projects more manageable.…”

Modelling and Implementing Smart Universities: An IT Conceptual Framework

The smart city concept has been gaining momentum in the scientific community because of its potentially huge impact on citizens’ quality of life. However, expectations have not yet been met in practice. This is firstly due to the sheer breadth of such projects and secondly to the lack of methodologies available to guide the development of flexible and sustainable platforms over time. In this work, we propose to address these issues by using a university campus as a less complex mock-up version of a city. Despite differences between them, we find services that are common to both, and a medium-sized city’s population is comparable to that of a university community. We propose an IT conceptual framework to model and implement smart university projects, which supports the design of a platform that is both in line with the strategic plans of universities and is flexible, sustainable, stable, and sufficiently modular to support the addition of different value-added services over the years. Our framework is based on a service provision model materialised in an IT architecture and managed following a methodology to integrate IT components that ensure the insertion of new, smart initiatives of value to the community, aligned with the university’s needs, via a value-added service planning process. The results are presented in the University of Alicante case study and the SmartUA project.

“…The latter reviewed open prediction models for open data sets that help to understand different behaviors classified by building type. Anthony Jnr [21] reviewed various approaches of enterprise architectures and energy prosumption in smart cities to propose an architecture for energy prosumption management in residential buildings and electric vehicles in smart cities using open, online, and historical data. In addition, Terroso-Saenz et al proposed the IoTEP platform [22], an open IoT-based system for energy data management and analysis.…”

The electrical industry is undergoing a deep digital transformation towards the consolidation of smart grids, which requires a high demand of data and information systems involved in the processes. Open data initiatives, which have been focused on open governance to a great extent, generate positive impacts on society and the economy in terms of easy access to public resources, agility, and transparency. These initiatives can also be adopted in the electrical industry (i.e., power, electrical, and energy systems) for customer engagement, collaboration with other industries, and reaching consensus. This study proposes the implementation of an open data solution for the electrical industry through the deployment of a data hub that offers digital services for smart city applications and the integration of the X-Road system to improve the security and interoperability of open data. This initiative aims to promote a wider adoption of open data in the electrical industry and prepare the latter for fully connected and collaborative digital ecosystems in smart cities, industries, and governments. This study also proposes an open data architecture for the interoperability of the electrical industry with other digital industries (through a Smart City Hub and the adoption of 5G technology), and it reports some relevant results and major findings in this regard. This paper highlights the benefits of promoting open data and technological strategies for digitized electrical systems while considering humans an essential factor. Finally, it discusses the pros and cons of the integration of X-Road with the electrical industry under the concept of smart grids for data exchange and potential applications.
