Sustainable infrastructure reframing and development for crowded cities to facing future epidemic disasters beyond Covid-19 in Hillah city, mid-Iraq.

An innovated engineering management platform has been adopted to limit the factors affecting epidemics spread, predicting future infection, and development of crowded, healthy, smart, and self-sufficient (HSSS) cities. The platform has proven to be effective in redesigning the city's infrastructure structure according to a developing city and the international standards of HSSS city to insuring a minimum number of infections. The platform itself is based on Weka Software and generalized extreme value distribution for prediction missing historical data of the case study (Covid-19 in Hillah city, mid-Iraq). The output results reveal that the percentage decrease in the number of infections of developing city scenario was between 39.3% - 100% on Jan and between 6.5% - 25.7% on Jul in the year 2030. While for HSSS scenario, the percentage decrease in infections number was found between 60.3% - 100% on Jan and 30.5% - 75.2% on Jun. The findings are that the infections number reducing is mainly depended on the possibility of infrastructures reframing and climatic conditions which are unfortunately uncontrollable.
