| description | This article reviews the literature surrounding innovative computational tools for waste management within smart cities. With the rise of urbanization and the increasing challenges of waste management, innovative technologies play a pivotal role in optimizing waste collection, sorting, recycling, and disposal processes. Leveraging computational tools such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, and big data analytics, smart waste management systems enable real-time monitoring, predictive modeling, and optimization of waste-related operations. These tools empower authorities to enhance resource efficiency, minimize environmental impact, and improve the overall quality of urban living. Through a comprehensive review of recent research and practical implementations, this article highlights the key features, benefits, and challenges associated with the development of cutting-edge computational tools for waste management. Emerging trends and opportunities for research and development in this rapidly evolving field are identified, emphasizing the importance of integrating technological innovations for building sustainable and resilient waste management in smart cities. |
