Abstract
- The Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) becomes an important component of the smart city toward safer roads, better traffic control, and on-demand service by utilizing and processing the information collected from sensors of vehicles and road side infrastructure. In ITS, Vehicular Cloud Computing (VCC) is a novel technology balancing the requirement of complex services and the limited capability of on-board computers. However, the behaviors of the vehicles in VCC are dynamic, random, and complex. Thus, one of the key safety issues is the frequent disconnections between the vehicle and the VehicularCloud (VC)when this vehicle is computing for a service. More important, the connection fault will disturb seriously the normal services of VCC and impact the safetyworks of the transportation. In this paper, a safety resource allocationmechanismis proposed against connection fault inVCC by using a modified workflow with prediction capability. We firstly propose the probability model for the vehiclemovement which satisfies the high dynamics and real-time requirements of VCC. And then we propose a Prediction-based Reliability Maximization Algorithm (PRMA) to realize the safety resource allocation for VCC. The evaluation shows that our mechanism can improve the reliability and guarantee the real-time performance of the VCC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
