The collection brings together original research papers, interdisciplinary insights, and evidence-based contributions that address the pressing challenges and opportunities of urban development in the 21st century, with a focus on smart, sustainable, and resilient cities. The proceedings highlight a broad range of interdisciplinary perspectives on urban futures, organised across four tracks: Digital Cities, Sustainable Cities, Healthy Cities, and Resilient Cities. By integrating theoretical foundations with practical implementations, the contributions in this volume offer a comprehensive perspective on how cities can be designed and governed to thrive in the face of rapid technological change, climate pressures, public health challenges, and social inequity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough these works, readers are expected to gain valuable understanding of current developments, emerging frameworks, and actionable strategies shaping the future of urban environments. This collection serves as a timely reference for researchers, urban practitioners, policymakers, and city leaders seeking to advance liveable, inclusive, and sustainable urban ecosystems aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfessor Ir Dr Rosdiadee Nordin's \u003c\/strong\u003eresearch focuses on next-generation wireless communications.
