Abstract: The use of information technologies for clever management of the cities is the most probable main driver of efficiency in the city logistics. The introduction of complex systems on imperfect infrastructure hides numerous challenges. In this paper we will go through the main tendencies regarding the technologies in the urban environment, the problems of city logistics and the implementation of these technologies. As methods for analysis, we will use comparative analysis, meta-analysis and analysis of tendencies. The preliminary results of the research show that the highly effective systems, placed in the real world tend to be highly sensitive to disturbances that can compromise important logistical chains. Focus of the paper is the creation of guidelines for safeguarding the robustness and predictability of the city logistics.
