Active CTDaaS: A Data Service Framework Based on Transparent IoD in City Traffic

摘要

Transport infrastructure generates a huge amount of city transportation data due to the significant increasing of advanced devices, such as sensing devices, mobile devices and real-time monitors. However, transportation big data cannot be fully analyzed and utilized by urban traffic data services currently. This paper proposes a novel City Traffic Data-as-a-Service (CTDaaS), which fuses data from distributed providers. Initially, we build an Internet of Traffic Data Service (IoTDS) model to identify associations and relationships among data resources. Then a CTDaaS agent is developed under Transparent Computing paradigm and service oriented architecture. It receives user requests, fuses knowledge from a variety of data sources according to different computing models, and responses differentiated Quality of Data (QoD). Finally, an application scenario, named Park and Ride (P+R), is implemented and evaluated to demonstrate how the service works using existing dynamic city traffic data.
