\section{Introduction}
Due to the rapid growth of urbanization, cities are facing numerous challenges, including traffic congestions and safety issues \cite{shatat2024smart}. The Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as a promising solution
to overcome these challenges along with data analytics and artificial intelligence \cite{shatat2024smart}.
\newline
\newline
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the interconnection between physical and virtual objects through the internet, enabling them to collect and exchange data \cite{bayani2017internet}. The identification
of the devices in the internet is done through the use of unique identifiers, such as IP addresses \cite{bayani2017internet}. Talking about IoT devices, they can be anything from smart home appliances
like smart TVs to sensors and actuators used to collect data and execute actions

Test subsection.

\section{Research Methodology}
This study adopts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach to examine the advantages and disadvantages of using Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in smart cities. The reason for this approach
is to provide a comprehensive unbiased overview of the current state of research on this topic.
\newline
\newline
To identify relevant papers, a structured search string was developed to capture a broad range of perspectives on the topic. The following search query was used in academic databases:
\begin{quote}
TI (iot OR "internet of things") AND (smart cities OR "smart city") AND (advantages OR benefits OR pros OR strengths OR disadvantages OR cons OR risks OR challenges OR drawbacks OR weaknesses)
\end{quote}
The search was limited to peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers published in English. As a database for the search, Google Scholar and EBSCO were used.
