International Standardization Consensus Building and Application on Concepts of"Smart"in Digital Domain from System of Systems Perspective
In the digital age,with the fast development and widespread application of big data and artifi-cial intelligence technologies,"smart"designations are increasingly emerging.However,there is lack of re-search on international standardization consensus on"smart"concepts.This paper identifies the core con-cepts and essential characteristics of"smart"from definitions of relevant international standards in digital do-main from system of systems perspective and employs principles and methods for concept building in ISO 704:2022.Based on cross-domain international standards experts virtual meetings and surveys conducted,cross-domain standardization consensus on generic concepts of"smart"is achieved.These concepts of"smart"have been used to map and guide the development of a Chinese national standard in smart city do-main.The study has important strategic significance for promoting the compatibility between national and in-ternational standards.
