and communication technology facilities, with social, environmental and management as the core elements, and ubiquitous, green and beneficial to the people as the main features. It is a strategic cognition of the scientific development of modern cities and
a specific method to respond wisely, another innovative top-level design for the future scientific development of cities, and an integration and sublimation of previous urban development concepts. ISCI-2023 aims to provide a unique platform for multi-disciplinary
researchers and teams, industry solution vendors, and government agencies to exchange innovative ideas, challenges, research results and solutions, as well as project experience reports and successful stories.<o:p class="ContentPasted0"> </o:p></span></span></p>

city is also home to the magnificent Exeter Cathedral, which dates back to Norman times. Exeter is also ideally placed to base a trip to branch out visiting places such as the famous Dartmoor National Park and the unspoilt beaches of the North and South Devon
coastlines.<o:p class="ContentPasted0"> </o:p></span></span></p>
