Internet of Services for Smart Cities: A Comparative Study / Internet de Serviços para Cidades Inteligentes: Um Estudo Comparativo
Abstract
The individuals as well as the cities they live, are each day more interconnected, creating new service possibilities and offers. A new digital era is marked by a new society ecosystem focused on the redefinition of the concept of cities, urbanism, and way of life, motivated by the introduction or development of Information and Communication Technology. The Internet of Services, coupled with the Internet of Things, has been mentioned as an important pillar for the Smart Cities architecture, however publications focusing on the Internet of Services domain are still missing. This paper aims to fill this gap through characterizing the Internet of Services and analyzing if cities that already have a high degree of technology and innovation are ready to be smart cities. A case study was carried out using secondary data published about two Brazilian cities: São José dos Campos and Sorocaba. By means of a comparative analysis of the last Brazilian Smart Cities rankings, it was assessed the performance of the two cities. As main result, it was concluded that the better the Internet infra-structure and a governance of the municipality authorities on a plan for a Smart City development jointly with the inhabitants, the better ranked as Smart City will become the municipality.

RESUMO
Tanto os indivíduos como as cidades em que vivem estão cada vez mais interligados, criando novas possibilidades e ofertas de serviços. Uma nova era digital é marcada por um novo ecossistema da sociedade focado na redefinição do conceito de cidade, urbanismo e modo de vida, motivado pela introdução ou desenvolvimento das Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação. A Internet de Serviços, associada à Internet das Coisas, tem sido apontada como um importante pilar da arquitetura das Cidades Inteligentes, porém ainda faltam publicações com foco no domínio da Internet de Serviços. Este trabalho visa preencher essa lacuna caracterizando a Internet de Serviços e analisando se as cidades que já possuem um alto grau de tecnologia e inovação estão prontas para serem Cidades Inteligentes. Foi realizado um estudo de caso com dados secundários publicados sobre duas cidades brasileiras: São José dos Campos e Sorocaba. Por meio de uma análise comparativa dos últimos rankings de Cidades Inteligentes no Brasil, avaliou-se o desempenho das duas cidades. Como resultado principal, foi concluído que quanto melhor for a infraestrutura de Internet e uma governança das autoridades municipais em um plano de desenvolvimento de Cidades Inteligentes em conjunto com os moradores, melhor classificado como Cidade Inteligente se tornará o município.
