Abstract:
Over the past few years, the advances in wireless communications, the expansion of cloud computing applications and the implementation of intelligent terminal equipment, forced vehicle manufacturers to rethink the role of advanced Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the vehicle industry. The process of designing, developing and deploying the new, smarter concept of vehicle management started by realizing the power of the collected data to improve vehicle services, to enable an integrated, effortless service experience, to engage with the drivers and implement the solutions for the well-being of all traffic participants. In this paper, we first define the key requirements for the integration of Smart Vehicle Computer System (SVCS) with cloud assisted automotive applications. Further, based on these requirements, we design a flexible and scalable cloud platform based on implementation of software defined networking into an architecture called Smart Vehicle to Cloud Integration Architecture (SVCIA). The goal is to provide a dynamic allocation of resources adjusted to the user needs and an easy implementation of new services, which makes driving safer and more comfortable for users. The validation of the suggested solution has been done through simulation, where we used a cloud application based on Dijkstra algorithm in order to dynamically route the traffic and avoid congestions. The obtained results show that the use of this kind of solution can significantly improve drivers’ satisfaction and safety during the ride.
