The adoption of technologies like the IoT in urban environments, together with the intensive use of smartphones, is driving transformation towards smart cities. Under this perspective, Experimentation-as-a-Service within OrganiCity aims to create an experimental facility with technologies, services, and applications that simplify innovation within urban ecosystems. We discuss here tools that facilitate experimentation, implementing ways to organize, execute, and administer experimentation campaigns in a smart city context. We discuss the benefits of our framework, presenting some preliminary results. This is the first time such tools are paired with large-scale smart city infrastructures, enabling both city-scale experimentation and cross-site experimentation.
物联网等技术在城市环境中的采用，以及智能手机的广泛使用，正在推动向智慧城市的转型。从这个角度来看，OrganiCity 中的“即服务式实验”旨在创建一个具有技术、服务和应用的实验设施，简化城市生态系统中的创新。我们在这里讨论了一些便于实验的工具，提出了在智慧城市环境中组织、执行和管理实验活动的方法。我们讨论了我们框架的好处，并展示了一些初步结果。这是这些工具首次与大规模智慧城市基础设施相结合，实现城市规模的实验和跨站点实验。
