“…We also consider a lane length of 1 Km and nodes traveling the lanes with a speed range between 50 and 80 Km per hour. We also consider a parking lot model to model the mobility pattern of the HCF layer [22], where cars in a parking lot form the HCF layer. Similar to [22], we consider that HCF nodes arrive at a parking lot according to a Poisson process, as well as an exponential distributed parking time with 15 and 60 time slots respectively.…”

The need to extend the features of Cloud computing to the edge of the network has fueled the development of new computing architectures, such as Fog computing. When put together, the combined and continuous use of fog and cloud computing, lays the foundation for a new and highly heterogeneous computing ecosystem, making the most out of both, cloud and fog. Incipient research efforts are devoted to propose a management architecture to properly manage such combination of resources, such as the reference architecture proposed by the OpenFog Consortium or the recent Fog-to-Cloud (F2C). In this paper, we pay attention to such a combined ecosystem and particularly evaluate the potential benefits of F2C in dynamic scenarios, considering computing resources mobility and different traffic patterns. By means of extensive simulations we specifically study the aspects of service response time, network bandwidth occupancy, power consumption and service disruption probability. The results indicate that a combined fog-to-cloud architecture brings significant performance benefits in comparison with the traditional standalone Cloud, e.g., over 50% reduction in terms of power consumption.

“…Silva et al [12] implemented a wireless network based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. Caliskan et al [13] introduced a vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) which was used to transfer the status information of a parking lot through cars and proposed an application of VANETs into parking data transmission.…”

The constantly increasing number of cars in the megacities is causing severe parking problems. To resolve this problem, many cities adopt parking guidance system as a part of intelligent transportation system (ITS). However, the current parking guidance system stays in its infant stage since the obtainable information is limited. To enhance parking management in the megacity and to provide better parking guidance to drivers, this study introduces an intelligent parking guidance system and proposes a new methodology to operate it. The introduced system considers both public parking and private parking so that it is designed to maximize the use of spatial resources of the city. The proposed methodology is based on the dynamic information related parking in the city and suggests the best parking space to each driver. To do this, two kinds of utility functions which assess parking spaces are developed. Using the proposed methodology, different types of parking management policies are tested through the simulation. According to the experimental test, it is shown that the centrally managed parking guidance can give better results than individually preferred parking guidance. The simulation test proves that both a driver's benefits and parking management of a city from various points of view can be improved by using the proposed methodology.

“…In [13], authors predict the occupancy of a parking lot, by modeling it as a queue and using a Markov chain. Another work related to problem of finding a vacant parking space is discussed in [2], where vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications are used to help vehicles navigate inside a large parking lot.…”
