Energy Efficient Software Matching in Distributed Vehicular Fog Based Architecture with Cloud and Fixed Fog Nodes

摘要

The rapid development of vehicles on-board units and the proliferation of autonomous vehicles in modrn cities create a potential for a new fog computing paradigm, referred to as vehicular fog computing (VFC). In this paper, we propose an architecture that integrates a vehicular fog (VF) composed of vehicles clustered in a parking lot with a fixed fog node at the access network and the central cloud. We investigate the problem of energy efficient software matching in the VF considering different approaches to deploy software packages in vehicles.
