Preface
The 2017 2rd International Conference on Sustainable (ICSC 2017) cities was successfully held on May 19, 2017 in Yekaterinburg, Russia. The conference is devoted to new technologies that enable sustainable cities development and promote a stable, comfortable, modern space for life.
There were 3 major sections of the scientific track of the conference:
- Strategic guidelines for sustainable development of the urban environment to improve living standards and restore nature
- Engineering solutions for "smart" cities
- Energy efficient solutions for sustainable development
This volume of IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science (EES) is a compilation of the accepted papers in ICSC 2017 and represents contributions that were presented in the conference. This year we had over 120 papers submitted for the review and only 29 of them where accepted for the oral presentation.
On behalf of the organization committee I would like to thank all of the conference sponsors, partners and volunteers who made conference possible.
Looking forward to meet you during ICSC 2018.
