Abstract

ABSTRACT Recently, drones (or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)) are getting increasing attention and taking mobile computing to a new era. Due to the support of highly advanced technologies, soon they might be ubiquitous and networks of drones might be used in providing civilian drone services. In this paper, we provide a survey of drone services and applications, data management for drones, data services using drones, distributed computing trends fuelled by drones and a range of human-drone interaction research which is useful if drones are to regularly serve non-technical users, while highlighting the specific concerns in data management and airborne Internet-of-Things (IoT) computing infrastructure. We present concepts such as drones-as-a-service and fly-in, fly-out computing infrastructure, and note data management and system design issues that arise in these situations. Issues of Big Data arising from such applications, optimising the configuration of airborne and ground infrastructure to provide the best QoS and QoE, situation-awareness, scalability, reliability, scheduling for efficiency, interaction with users and drones using different methods are noted.

无人机服务:从人机交互到信息处理，无人机定位服务存在的问题

近年来，无人机(或无人驾驶飞行器(uav))越来越受到关注，并将移动计算带入了一个新时代。在高度先进技术的支持下，它们可能很快就会无处不在，无人机网络可能会用于提供民用无人机服务。在本文中，我们提供了无人机服务和应用的调查，无人机的数据管理，使用无人机的数据服务，无人机推动的分布式计算趋势，以及一系列人机交互研究，如果无人机要定期为非技术用户服务，这些研究是有用的，同时强调了数据管理和机载物联网(IoT)计算基础设施中的具体问题。我们提出了诸如“无人机即服务”和“飞进飞出”计算基础设施等概念，并指出了在这些情况下出现的数据管理和系统设计问题。这些应用产生的大数据问题，优化机载和地面基础设施的配置以提供最佳的QoS和QoE，态势感知，可扩展性，可靠性，效率调度，使用不同方法与用户和无人机交互。

期刊介绍： The aim of this interdisciplinary and international journal is to provide a forum for the exchange of original ideas, techniques, designs and experiences in the rapidly growing field of location based services on networked mobile devices. It is intended to interest those who design, implement and deliver location based services in a wide range of contexts. Published research will span the field from location based computing and next-generation interfaces through telecom location architectures to business models and the social implications of this technology. The diversity of content echoes the extended nature of the chain of players required to make location based services a reality.
