Dear Farooq:

I am not sure if I approach your question correctly, there are a couple of papers written by the great urban study scientist Michael Batty which are related to smart cities, including the theories, techniques, as well as the envision into the future. For example, here is one:

Smart Cities of the Future

http://link.springer.com/article/10.1140%2Fepjst%2Fe2012-01703-3

More relevant papers can be found through searching Michael Batty's other articles, and his researches are also freely available on the University College London's CASA website.

Good luck,

Jiong

Dear Farooq

If I understand well, you are searching for something like this:

Matthew A. Turner: A simple theory of smart growth and sprawl (doi:10.1016/j.jue.2006.05.004)

J.L Grant:New Urbanism and Smart Growth Movements (doi:10.1016/B978-0-08-047163-1.00494-X)

Good luck,

Georgina

Beware of anyone describing their notions as "smart." It suggests that the notions of others are "dumb." Instead, there are a great many tradeoffs. A more compact city with taller buildings may result in more congestion and more difficulty in land use transitions as tall buildings need to be demolished. One person's sprawl is the dream of space to another. What planners ought to be focused on is the problem of dealing with the largest externality problems.

Some Australian experience is that high density urban projects do not achieve significant savings in consumption of electricity or water. And of course they will commonly require the demolition of existing serviceable buildings, wasting their embodied energy, bricks, timber, steel, copper and other materials. You might like to search for articles by Australian scholar Patrick Troy.

Here is an example of how a planner might address a market failure by modifying the property tax system: Turnbull and Colwell, "Frontage Tax and the Optimally Compact City," Dick Netzer, ed. Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, Edward Elgar Publishing, Cheltenham, 2003, 287-315.

Dear Farooq,

I would suggest four reads as following:

1. Wlodarczak,D. Smart Growth and Urban Economic Development: Connecting Economic Development and Land-Use Planning Using the Example of High-Tech Firms

2. Cervero, R,  Transport and land use: key issues in metropolitan planning and smart growth

3. Edward J. Sullivan and Jessica Yeh. Smart growth: state strategies in managing sprawl

4. Knapp, G.J.; Haccou, H.A.; Clifton, K.J. Incentives, Regulations and Plans : The Role of States and Nation-states in Smart Growth Planning

Hope you find these useful.

A good start would be to read the SmartCode, which detail every principle of SmartGrowth Theory :

Duany, A., Sorlien, S., & Wright, W. (2012). SmartCode. Version 9.2. The Town Paper Publisher.

Then, here some papers :

Hi,  Gerrit Knaap has a nice discussion of how "smart" urban planning contrasts, not with "dumb", but rather with those who argue that market forces are the best arbiters of growth.  He has a nice chapter with the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy entitled "The sprawl of Economics:  A response to Jan Brueckner".  I am sure they will be happy to share it and other similar papers with you.  The Lincoln Institute is a really good place for you to make contact, given your interests.  

Dear Nadeem

Smart growth is itself concerned with the land use planning and probably one of it principal that applied with certain land use development rules and principals like land zoning, growth boundaries, affordable housing, urban greening, better transport network and adopted for creating sustainable, livable and efficient cities and restraint haphazard sprawl to surrounding productive land.

Dear Farooq,

I recommend: Jan K. Brueckner "Urban Sprawl: Diagnosis and Remedies" (doi: 10.1177/016001700761012710)

Good luck,

Gerardo

Can anyone suggest me some papers about the Smart Growth theory and Land use planning? - ResearchGate. Available from: https://www.researchgate.net/post/Can_anyone_suggest_me_some_papers_about_the_Smart_Growth_theory_and_Land_use_planning [accessed Dec 25, 2015].

Hi!

I recommend Tod Litmans' papers. You can find them in : http://www.vtpi.org/tdm/

Dear Farooq, 

We just published a paper that presents an extensive review of the smart growth literature and its relation with land use / spatial planning in International Planning Studies: Place as layered and segmentary commodity. Place branding, smart growth and the creation of product and value. It can be downloaded from researchgate.
