“…When contemplating the accessibility of healthcare services within smart cities, it is imperative to acknowledge that this sector's significance is on the rise in tandem with societal advancement and technological progress (Andreou & Manika, 2021;Olanrewaju et al, 2022). Consequently, an increased number of hospitals in a city can draw the attention of potential investors seeking opportunities in the healthcare industry, thereby bolstering the city's revenue streams (Persaud et al, 2020). Ultimately, the growth of the healthcare sector can make a substantial contribution to the city's GDP (Prasetyadi & Koonsrisuk, 2020;Rupani & Abu Bakr, 2017;Hassanain et al, 2013).…”

The primary aim of this research paper is to investigate the distribution of hospitals across different regions in Poland. It provides an in-depth analysis of hospital distribution in Poland, emphasizing the significance of taking into account factors such as population size and accessibility when assessing the quantity of hospitals as a determinant of quality of life in a smart city. This analysis is based on data concerning hospital operations in Poland spanning the years 2012 to 2021. It explores a range of indicators, including the number of hospitals per province, the ratio of hospitals per 1,000 square kilometers within a province's geographical area, and the relationship between the availability of hospitals and the GDP per capita. One noteworthy aspect of this paper is its utilization of cluster analysis to identify groups of provinces that exhibit similarities with respect to these indicators. Surprisingly, the research findings challenge the conventional division of regions into "Poland A" and "Poland B" based on wealth. Instead, the study reveals an unexpected outcome: a positive correlation of 0.81 between the number of hospitals and GDP per capita. This suggests that more prosperous provinces tend to have a greater number of hospitals available.

The rising trend of the increasing interconnection of city services refers to the growing integration and interconnectedness of various urban systems and services through the utilization of technology and data. One of the primary objectives of smart city initiatives is to establish more efficient and sustainable urban environments by optimizing resource utilization and infrastructure. In this paper, we introduce a traffic ontology named "TrafCsOnto," which encompasses a comprehensive range of traffic concepts. The primary aim of this ontology is to address traffic congestion issues within the smart city context. The formalization of this ontology has been carried out using the OWL language and the protégé tool. We endeavor to illustrate the practical application of the traffic ontology through the manipulation of real-world instances and inferences.
