This presentation proposes a three-tier cloud architecture for vehicle networks called V-Cloud. The first tier contains devices in vehicles like sensors, GPS and smartphones. The second tier enables in-vehicle, vehicle-to-vehicle, and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication. The third tier provides context-based, communication-based, and customized services through the cloud. V-Cloud would make real-time services possible, allow resource sharing between vehicles cost-effectively, and provide accurate personalized services through cloud computing. In conclusion, as vehicles and communication technologies advance, V-Cloud could improve safety, connectivity and comfort through its tiered cloud architecture.

3. INTRODUCTION
 With the advancement of technology vehicles are getting more sophisticated.
 Communication between vehicles is getting easier with the deployment of various
emerging technologies in automobiles.
 In order to reduce traffic accidents and to increase fuel efficiency, vehicles are
integrated with devices like GPS, Sensors, Actuators etc.
 In order to increase the efficiency of these devices they should be synchronized with
each other.

4. INTRODUCTION
 A three tier cloud architecture is proposed in this presentation which helps in
improving the communication between drivers and outside car world.
 The proposed V-Cloud architecture uses the services of cloud computing which
makes it economical.
 The smart devices that have been deployed in the car and the devices that are
attached to the drivers communicate with each other and forms a Body Area Sensor
Network(BASN).
 The proposed V-cloud architecture helps in developing many real time services with
the help of BSAN.

5. WHY V-CLOUD IS NEEDED
 Vehicle networking has now become a significant research area.
 Vehicles are expected to carry relatively more communication systems, on board
computing facilities, storage and increased sensing power.
 Several technologies have been deployed to maintain and promote Intelligent
Transportation Systems (ITS).
 Number of solution were proposed to address the challenges of vehicular networks.

6. WHY V-CLOUD IS NEEDED
 Vehicular cloud(V-cloud) is one of the solutions.
 V-Cloud is a new hybrid technology that has a remarkable impact on traffic
management and road safety by instantly using vehicular resources, such as
computing, storage and internet for decision making.
 The analysis shows that V-Cloud is feasible for converging intelligent vehicular
networks towards autonomous traffic, vehicle control and perception systems.

7. PROPOSAL OF THREE TIER ARCHITECTURE
 Generally, Cloud computing is used to describe the distribution through the
Internet and Wireless network.
 Aim for proposing Cloud Services
 Real Time Services
 Sharing and Cost Effective services
 Accurate general services
 Customized services

8. PROPOSAL OF THREE TIER ARCHITECTURE
Benefits of using Cloud Services in Vehicles
 Less hardware requirement
 Decrease the cost of our increasingly computerized cars.
 Auto access to vehicles

9. TIER 1 – DEVICE LEVEL
 Contains various devices ranging from sensors, actuators, GPS, Smart phones and pc
based Devices.
 Device communication using Body Area Sensor Network(Embedded sensor, actuator ,
other sensors) through multi-hop manner

10. TIER 2 – COMMUNICATION LEVEL
Divided into In-car communication, Vehicle to vehicle communication, Vehicle to
infrastructure communication.
 In-Car : Communication between different type of device present within the
car.
 Vehicle to Vehicle : Resource sharing between different vehicles using Mobile
Ad-hoc network (MANET).
 Vehicle to Infrastructure : Interaction between Vehicle and Cloud
infrastructure

11. TIER 3 – SERVICE LEVEL
Classified into – Context based, Communication based and Customized service.
 Context based : Services including Driver status monitoring, Road pollution
monitoring, Car performance monitoring.
 Communication based : Wireless communication techniques for communicating
to other vehicles.
 Customized services : Health care services, Parking services, Sharing resources
with other vehicles.

12. REAL TIME SERVICES AND CLOUD ARCHITECTURE
With increasing number of population of cars, number of accidents are likely to get
high. There are two kinds of traffic information
 Centralized method: In centralized network, the user sends inquiry to a server and
it gets data of the particular location which Is not dynamic.
 Distributed network: The user broadcast the message to server or to friends to
indicate the congestion in that area

13. REAL TIME SERVICES AND CLOUD ARCHITECTURE
 The invention is a system that uses sensors to monitor variety of health indicator for
driver and fellow passengers.
 This was designed for the group of divers who might have special diseases like heart
problem, respiratory problems or other major disease which might cause accidents.
 There are various sensors associated with the seat of the driver. Sensors like EEG,
ECG and pulse sensors.

14. CONCLUSION
 Due to fast growing technology communication with devices has increased to great
extent. Since maximum people spend most of the time in the car, their security is
essential factor.
 This has been explained with the help of tier system over cloud computing. Along
with the technology, real time applications has also been mentioned in the project.
 Hence to have a comfort and more improved technology, cloud computing is
effective way to meet the requirements.
