COP-PILOT Research on Smart City Value Evaluation Presented at EGOV-CeDEM-ePart 2026 COP-PILOT Horizon was represented at EGOV-CeDEM-ePart 2026 through research presented on the evaluation of edge-enabled smart city solutions. The paper, “Evaluating Edge-Enabled Smart Waste Management in Smart Cities: A Design-Oriented KVI/KPI Framework,” was developed collaboratively by researchers from the University of Bradford, Kingston University London, and Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV). The research is grounded in a live smart waste management pilot in Valencia, Spain, developed within Cluster 2 – Smart Cities of the COP-PILOT project. The paper proposes a three-dimensional framework that connects measurable Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) with
