Internet of vehicles: Cloud and fog computing approaches

Some of the mobility challenges in the cities can be approached with the Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, and Fog Computing. In this work we consider the city as a system of systems and focus on the interaction of those entities with the mobility systems. A key element that allows this interaction is a vehicle on-board unit. In this work we address the interconnection, enabling technologies, interoperability, scalability, geo-distribution and time constrains aspects in the architectural design of mobility systems. For this we propose the On-Board Unit architecture and cover three different levels of technification in information and communication technologies. Based on this differentiation we are able to include Cloud and Fog Computing into our proposed designs.
