A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Even if the idea of smart is far from being newly born, its application to the architectural field is quite recent. However, the definition of this concept appears still fluid, since a precise definition of its meaning seems surprisingly difficult. So, efforts of the present chapter are aimed at defining what can be defined smart in the Architecture domain and, similarly, what are in brief the studies that establish the theoretical framework on which this scope is based on. Although this theme constitutes a quite young field of research, within the broad area of Technology for Architecture, as well as literature on it is such heterogeneous and—in general terms—lacking recognized agreed definition, the will is to define what the term smart could sense within this domain, paying particular attention toward the role that Internet of Things and Industry 4.0 logics play in this context.
