Abstract

The smart city  is one of the popular topics in the sustainable development of the city.. However, there is still a misunderstanding about what smart cities are and the role of digital technology in its development. Therefore, the main purpose of this article is to address the role of digital technology in  the growth of smart city and sustainable logistics  .  In this study, first, the analysis of the smart city literature is presented to achieve this goal.The development  of information technology of smart cities depends on the characteristics and characteristics of cities, as well as on macro-technological considerations. Cities that use information technology as a means of urban sustainability create intelligence to emerge as smart cities as a source of growth and permanent transformation in the urban ecosystem, and to pursue a sustainable management and organizational perspective.Digitalization,  with the increasing influx of technological innovations, is  transforming business and is likely to fuel the transition towards a more sustainable way of creating value.. Apart from hardware trends, it is mainly software-based digital technologies that bring about fundamental changes in processes, operations, functions, and supply chains  . The results showed that, in  smart cities, resources will be managed efficiently, and  the  governance and planning of cities will  also  be efficient. In addition, transportation systems, waste management, and healthcare services will be effective It was. In this study, the role of digital technology in  the transportation  and logistics sectorwas investigated. The purpose of thispaper is  to provide an overview of the city as a sustainable society that advances urban development and adopts the vision of smart urban growth
