Abstract Data collection in smart cities requires some sensing infrastructure. The deployment of traditional sensors is costly, and their operation and maintenance requires a continuous effort from the city administration. Alternatively, the crowd of inhabitants can be involved in data collection via their mobile devices because with the proliferation of smartphones more and more, computing and sensing power becomes available at the hands of urbanites. This emerging paradigm is called participatory sensing or mobile crowdsensing that is a viable alternative if the community finds incentives (good services) for urbanites to participate in context sharing. In this chapter, we present a generic framework built upon the eXtensible Messaging and Presence Protocol for mobile participatory sensing–based smart city applications. Moreover, we illustrate its usage via two use-case application scenarios, namely a live transit-feed service and a smart campus scenario, which have been implemented on top of this framework. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
