Cities, the main settlements of human beings, are facing mega challenges of climate change, urbanization, population increase, economic growth, and environmental deterioration. To address such challenges, the goal of sustainable cities and communities has been advocated by the United Nations. In particular, smart city has been applied to integrate digital technologies and sensors to improve the efficiency of assets, resources, and services in urban operations. In comparison, the resilient city is expected to improve urban resilience (e.g., prevention, impact reduction, recovery, adaptation) to disasters and emergencies. However, limited studies have analyzed how to ensure a normal condition for smart city under extreme conditions and how to ensure a resilient city can efficiently respond to disasters and extreme events. Therefore, this chapter aims to address such research gaps for the integration of smart city and resilient city, namely resilient-smart city, in order to better ensure sustainable urban development under various mega challenges. This chapter discusses how six components of smart city (i.e., governance, people, life, mobility, economy, and environment) contribute the resilient city in four aspects of health and well-being, economy and society, urban systems and services, and leadership and strategy to indicate the possibilities of the integration of smart city and resilient city. Moreover, this chapter points out challenges hindering resilient-smart city development and provides corresponding suggestions to overcome such challenges. Overall, this chapter is expected to open a vision for further development of resilient-smart cities that can contribute to the achievement of sustainable urban development goals.
