− | | '''Objective and Scope'''
| |
− | ||
| |
− | * To design and implement a smart city application that incorporates a combination of technology enablers, and which addresses an urbanisation, sustainability, or societal challenge in domains such as housing, environment, etc.
| |
− | ||
| |
− | * '''(Analytical)''' To conduct an evidence-based analysis of smart city blueprint (locally or overseas) or analytical models addressing an urbanisation, sustainability, or societal challenge in different domains such as housing, environment, etc.
| |
− | * '''(Research)''' To conduct research based on an identified problem related to addressing a smart city challenge. The scope may include a new algorithm / approach, simulation, and/or analysis for urbanisation, sustainability, or societal challenge in different domains such as housing, environment, etc.

Additional note: after acceptance of the project proposal, Type 1 and Type 2 students will need to bid for IS483 (not SMT483) during BOSS2, and they should bid only e$10. If there is insufficient e$ balance in a student's account, they will not be able to enroll in IS483 even if their team's proposal is accepted.

Final Report
We recommend* that you write your final report using the IEEE double-column conference paper template. This is available from either of the following links:
- Official Microsoft Word Template: here
- Collaborative Overleaf (LaTeX) Template: here
There is no strict upper word limit, but concise technical writing is preferred. (FYI: academic publications that use this format rarely exceed 10 pages excluding references/appendices!)
(*) The above template is only a recommendation, and you are free to use any other appropriate template if you prefer (see, for example, the reports of previous projects). Content is what counts!
