Creating a Smart City Resident-Participatory Living Lab and Its implications - Focusing on the Cases of Living Lab in Small and Medium Cities -

In this study, an alternative plan was proposed to share the entire process of the project by creating a living lab in the area to create a smart city and to increase the perception of local residents through the direction of feedback from residents for each solution.This presupposes that the current issues facing the region must be resolved by the needs of residents, who are actual users of the project, and to this end, major key elements were identified through the characteristics, and type-specific cases of smart city living labs, and the actual smart city creation summarized the operation performance of living labs by region.In addition to alternative considerations that can increase the perception of residents in the future, the necessity of measuring the performance of the Living Lab model by project type and the analysis of the consistency of the model by type should be conducted through comprehensive performance sharing.However, this study has the following limitations and implications.It is difficult to standardize the living lab process by generalizing the characteristics of individual cases, and it is also necessary to design a system of roles and requirements according to the level of participation of residents by combining the size and regional factors of the project site.In particular, local governments' resident participation projects also require continuity of resources that can be used, and it is expected that living lab-type performance sharing will continue to occur for projects with various purposes in the future.
