米尔顿·凯恩斯新城从生态环境友好的规划实验到智慧城市建设

From Eco-friendly Planning and Development Experiments to a Smart City:Some Concerns from the Practice of Smart City Initiate in Milton Keynes,the UK

智慧城市在过去10多年成为世界各国业界和学术界热衷探索的领域,但至今没有统一的定义。通过文献研究和调研实践,提出智慧城市的6个维度,体现了可持续发展的3个组成部分。基于智慧城市的6个维度,阐释英国米尔顿•凯恩斯新城从低碳、生态友好型的规划实验到智慧城市建设实践的探索。通过对米尔顿•凯恩斯新城案例的分析和评估,认为智慧城市只是一个手段,不是最终的产品,是通过创新技术从经济、环境、社会等不同维度实现人民对美好生活的追求,是以更高的绩效来建设一座宜居、宜业、可持续发展的城市。

Smart cities have become an attractive topic of exploration in both professional practices and academia in the world over the past decades.However,there is still no consensus or definition to explain smart cities.Through research and a summary of the literature,six dimensions of smart cities which embodied the three components of sustainable development are identified.The six dimensions of smart cities are adopted to analyse the delivery of a smart city initiated at Milton Keynes in the UK.According to the evaluation of low-carbon and environmentally-friendly planning and development of Milton Keynes and its recent exploration of smart cities,this paper indicates that smart cities are a tool to an end instead of an end product.The technologies and innovations used in smart cities should realise people's pursuit of a better life from different dimensions such as economy,environment and society to plan and build a liveable,workable and sustainable city.
