Abstract

Highlights: Reviewed 207 papers relevant to cyber-physical-social interdependencies and resilience quantification. An infrastructure-oriented approach focused on water, transportation and cyber to support sustainable cities of the future. Identified design, operations and managerial strategies for improving resilience of infrastructures and organizations. Discussed future needs of resilience metrics, interdependency and strategies. Abstract: Building resilience in critical infrastructures for smart and connected cities requires consideration of different types of interdependencies. Previous research has mainly conceptualized three types of interdependencies including cyber, physical, and social. To develop resilient and sustainable design, operations, and managerial strategies, domain knowledge for each infrastructure along with its organizational characteristics needs to be integrated with those of other infrastructures. In this review paper, an infrastructure-oriented approach is taken to systematically examine different types of interdependencies and resilience quantification techniques for water, transportation, and cyber infrastructures. Design, operations, and managerial strategies are identified and categorized into short-term, mid-term, and long-term plans that can potentially improve the resilience and sustanability of the underlying infrastructures. Future research needs, in terms of resilience metrics, interdependency, and strategies, are discussed.
