Staff
To achieve the ambitious objectives related to the scientific and technical issues and societal challenges associated with the smart city concept, the laboratory is not structured in teams. Through the implementation of national or European projects, and in very close relationship with the local ecosystem (companies and local and territorial authorities), the members of the laboratory are called upon according to their skills to carry out this work.

Key figures
The laboratory consists of 14 permanent members (6 Professors, 6 Assistant Professors, 1 Senior Lecturer (agrégé) and 1 non-academic staff member (BIATSS)), about ten associate members and approximately twenty doctoral students, half of whom are under the CIFRE convention. In 2016 and 2017, the number of publications comprised 45 International Journal articles and 77 international conferences, including 16 invited papers. Each year, we participate in the organization of ten international conferences: program or general chair, steering committee, scientific committee, organization of sessions, etc.

The Polytech'Lab laboratory is the research unit of the Nice-Sophia Polytech school, within Université Côte d'Azur. Created in January 2017 through the merger of two laboratories I-City (URE UNS 006) and EpOC (URE UNS 007), this laboratory also welcomes a team from the Intelligent Buildings department of the school. In February 2018, it was awarded the label EA 7498 by the Ministry of Higher Education. The main research activities of this laboratory, oriented towards the public and private sector and industrial transfer, are focused on the issue of managing energy, water and risk in the Smart City concept, based on information and communication technologies. Polytech'Lab's strategy is based on three pillars: (i) an ambitious and disruptive scientific vision; (ii) a privileged relationship with the public and private sector, be it industry or local and regional authorities; (iii) a very strong synergy between education, research and innovation. Making the city smarter has several objectives: managing and optimising energy, water and risks, monitoring and improving air quality, traffic, etc. To achieve these objectives, the city must become connected by suitable communication networks. In addition to the classic 4G network, 5G broadband links are to be added, with the deployment of "small cells" including the latest generation wifi and gradually integrating communications networks dedicated to the Internet of Things (IoT) in general and wireless sensor networks (WSN) in particular. To meet these objectives, Polytech'Lab is made up of a multi- and transdisciplinary team that brings together skills in the fields of water sciences, civil engineering, building, computer science, micro- and nanoelectronics and telecommunications.
