SINGAPORE has set for itself the exciting goal of evolving into a Smart Nation over the next couple of years. It is an admirable and a progressive notion, much ahead of its time and that of many other countries.

Such a pursuit leverages current and emerging technologies and equipment, appliances, novel sensor software as well as a gamut of things yet to exist today. All these individual elements will be integrated to achieve the Smart Nation objective.

In the same vein, it will take many knowledge skill-sets to bring this strategy to fruition. There will be a need for engineers, scientists, technicians, creative urban planners, infrastructure service providers, among many others. In short, the evolution of Singapore into a Smart Nation requires a multi-disciplinary approach.
