Abstract:
The continuous growth of the vehicles number, together with associated problems encountered in transportation systems have driven significant developments in the framework of Intelligent Transport System (ITS). Recently, an advanced solution - Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is proposed, seen as a part of Future Internet and specifically of Internet of Things (IoT), aiming to offer novel advanced commercial and technical capabilities. IoV will integrate the previous Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) and also functionalities already developed in ITS. However, the architectural aspects of the IoV are still open research issues. This paper attempts a comparative critical study of several functional architectures proposed for IoV, including recent ones based on Cloud/Fog computing and Software defined networking (SDN) - control.
