Abstract In this modernized technology and ever increasing need of human to have an easy life, people spend more time in commuting in vehicles. Cloud computing has been a significant area for building Vehicle Network due to its specific features and applications. Various technologies have been incorporated to maintain and promote Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Vehicle Cloud Computing is a new composite technology that has sensational significance on various applications using vehicle resources. For safe and faster commuting, an appropriate networking is essential. This includes, how and which way is best way to reach a prescribed destination. To add to the facilities and care of the commuter facilities as heart track can also be added to the vehicle. To avoid traffic areas and accident prone areas, Cloud computing plays a major role to decide and help to navigate. The presentation will deal with the phases of Vehicle Cloud and how intelligent the transportation can be for future real time applications. In this project we are proposing a three tier vehicle cloud architecture which is further characterized into Device level, Communication level and Service level. Keywords: Vehicle network, Intelligent Transportation System, Vehicle Cloud Computing, Cloud computing 1. Introduction One challenging issue to the road transportation system is the traffic congestion which causes heavy loss in terms of both finance and human life. As a way out to
The town of Halton Hill’s population includes the areas of Georgetown and Acton and other communities such as Erin, Oakville, Burlington and Milton regions. This is what is considered to be my community because these are the many places that I am visiting most often and they are always referred to together as “Halton Hills Region” (p.5, 2011). With the substantial increase in population in the Halton Hills region, more specifically Georgetown, there should be a strong demand for a public transit system to counteract all of the environmental disturbances that are being caused due to this increase. One of the things that is happening is that there are so many trees they are cutting down in order to expand and grow the population with houses being built. Statistics are showing that the population of Halton Hill’s region will expand by 54% over the next 20 years (p.5, 2011). By the year 2031, employment rates will increase by 75%, leaving Halton with 42,100 jobs being offered (p.5, 2011). With this rapid influx of citizens, this will only increase the demands of travel to get to these work places as well as other destinations (p.5, 2011). Over the past couple of year’s the traffic congestion on the major roads in Halton Hills such as Trafalgar Road and Regional Road 25 with individuals trying to get to and from work. There used to be very little traffic in these areas, however since Halton Hill’s has continued to expand, the utilization of automobiles has significantly increased due to the fact there is no public transit system. The Transportation Demand Management in Halton Hill’s is noticing the increase in automobiles stating that there needs to be a major shift in more efficient ways of transportation, yet there still has been nothing improvised (p.7, 2011). The Transportation Demand
As a result of an increased population inhabiting one area, traffic congestion is often a major issue resulting from urbanisation. In London, traffic is evidently a problem. As it would be expected from a capital city home to more
Traffic in downtown Austin, Texas is becoming a sever issue and is continuing to become slower and more congested every day. Austin ranks 4th on a list of U.S. cities with the least efficient roadways, and with its remarkable growth rate, the issue can only get worse. After reading numerous articles based on opinions and statements from local city planners and engineers, the best way to see an improvement in the traffic issue is to increase the amount of public transportation in the Austin area. The increase of public transportation would provide fast travel time and would help reduce the amount of money, commuters and locals use on gas by a substantial amount per year. Though many may argue the that we have enough public transportation already, reducing the number of personal vehicles on the road would decrease the amount of bumper to bumper traffic experienced on a daily basis, as well as increase the options for those commuting to the city every day. there are many possible solutions, such as widening the highways or even building them underground, these solutions however are not the most economically correct and productive way to relieve traffic downtown.
Austin, Texas has a problem with traffic congestion. The solutions is Mike Heiligenstein and the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority. The popular city in Texas is constantly growing; consequently the traffic problems are a significant issue. The traffic problems in Texas can be managed, but not eliminated. According to the Central Texas regional Mobility Authority,(CMRMA), a technical solution is the key to managing the difficult traffic congestion. Traffic solutions involve more than the creation of new roads and highways. Mobility Authority strives to create innovative solutions to manage traffic issues in Austin, Texas.

A major issue for drivers today is congestion. When a car brake, the driver behind takes a couple of seconds to react and stop. Now, this goes on and on, causing heavy traffic and wasting everyone’s irreplaceable time. Autonomous cars are expected to have a completely revamped traffic system, one lacking traffic lights and stop signs. Vehicles will be capable of communicating with each other by transferring crucial information via sensors, allowing
At the present moment, the city is in dire need of modifying other means of transportation in order to minimize heavy traffic congestion that we have experienced over the past year. With a new institution of higher learning opening up traffic will get worse once students start enrolling in college come next spring. Therefore, our immediate attention has been focused on addressing this issue so that we can come up with a permanent solution without scapegoating or externalizing the
The primary concern with transportation is safety; hence the most obvious and largest benefit to the replacement of regular cars with self-driving cars is the decrease in traffic collisions. “Ninety percent of our road accidents are related to bad driving behavior; driving recklessly and speeding under the influence of alcohol, changing lanes without signaling, driving on the hard shoulder and passing through red lights.” -Lt Gen Dahi Khalfan Commander in chief of the Dubai Police (Olarte, 2011). The majority of car crashes is caused by human errors, and if this proposition is implemented, the number of fatalities due to car accidents per year will dramatically plummet. In 2012, a Google driverless car had driven over 300,000 miles, with only two accidents being reported, both of which had been a human’s fault (Emerson, 2012). Autonomous cars will have quicker reflexes than humans, make more reliable judgments and will not commit silly mistakes such as texting whilst driving. As a collateral for reducing accidents, this innovation could theoretically also save the government
It also increases air pollution from vehicles and puts the public to a high risk of asthma, high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, aggravation, stress, and other diseases. The high level of urbanization and car ownership causes traffic congestion and this would worsen in the future as the pollution and car ownership grows. There are various ways to reduce congestion, one possible way is to create toll on the roadways so that the public has to pay a fee associated with the roadway depending on the road characteristics, demand and supply, peak time, and other various data taken into consideration. This encourages user to choose other mode of transport which could be walking, public transit and bus, or carpooling. The toll would depend on the traveler’s willingness to pay (WTP) as a function of trip characteristics including trip urgency, length, and travel speed, traveller’s income levels, and previous exposure to tolled roadway. Travelers characteristics are asses by travellers willingness to carpool or to use the transit. ( WE cant get there from
There is a serious problem with our nation's roads and highways. I find myself repeatedly avoiding trips to the city for this very reason, as I'm sure many others do as well. This nerve-wracking congestion is even beginning to find its way into the suburbs and surrounding areas of large cities. It is a serious problem that affects everyone who owns an automobile, as well as, businesses that are dependent on reliable and convenient transportation. To top it all off, this problem is getting worse every year. The population of this nation is growing, which translates to an increase in cars on the road. More people are moving to cities and the suburbs that surround them,
The development of every nation hinges on the effectiveness of their transportation systems. Movement of goods, services and people to and from work is made possible by transportation systems. The importance of effective transportation systems cannot be over-emphasized. A lot of countries are facing Transportation problems and my country Ghana is no exception. A trip of about 30 minutes can take about an hour or more due to traffic jams. This is seriously impacting productivity and has been a topical issue in the country. The situation is the same in Uganda where I currently work. To this end, Transportation Engineers are needed to design roads/ highways that will stand the test of time, plan effective traffic management systems to reduce travel

Delhi, the capital city of India, is one of the fastest growing cities in the world with a population of 13 million as reported in the Census of India Report for the year 2000. Until recently, it was perhaps the only city of its size in the world depending almost entirely on roads as the sole mode of mass transport. The total length of the road network in Delhi has increased from a mere 652 km in 1981 to 1122 km in 2001 and it is expected to grow to 1340 km in the year 2021. This increase in road length is not at par with the phenomenal growth in the number of vehicles on these roads in Delhi. The cumulative figure of registered private and government buses, the
