Abstract: In the digital age, with the fast development and widespread application of big data and artificial intelligence technologies, “smart” designations are increasingly emerging. However, there is lack of research on international standardization consensus on “smart” concepts. This paper identifies the core concepts and essential characteristics of “smart” from definitions of relevant international standards in digital domain from system of systems perspective and employs principles and methods for concept building in ISO 704:2022. Based on cross-domain international standards experts virtual meetings and surveys conducted, cross-domain standardization consensus on generic concepts of “smart” is achieved. These concepts of “smart” have been used to map and guide the development of a Chinese national standard in smart city domain. The study has important strategic significance for promoting the compatibility between national and international standards.

Key words: Concept of “smart”, Definition of “smart”, Characteristics of “smart”, Standardized consensus building；International standards
