Report from Technoton Director Alexander Kaplunski "Methods Edge / fog computing in transport telematics" at the VIII-th annual conference of manufacturers, integrators and operators of IT-systems for transport management.

1. Edge/fog computing methods
in Vehicle Telematics
Alexander Kaplunski, Technoton, Director

3. Edge computing
Maximum data processing inside GPS tracker or digital sensor, i.e. as close as possible to the
data source.
Lower load on cloud server and communication channels, possibility of data exchange directly
between devices within an object and between various objects without using cloud server.
Fog computing
Data exchange between IoT devices directly without cloud server.

Telematics System: traditional vs edge/fog
Event - relatively rare and sudden parameter change.

5. Edge/fog advantages
Lower load on server
Operation without server
Equal data
Accuracy of measurement
Possibility to detect “quick" Events
Promptness of Reports generation

6. Edge/fog advantages/ lower load on server
Each object individually has more time
for analytics and Report generation.

7. Edge/fog advantages / Operation without server
Reports can be sent directly to user via SMS, e-mail, social networks or messengers

8. Edge/fog advantages /
Identical data «on board» and on server side
On Board In analytical software

9. IoT Burger Technology
Filtration, linearization, secondary transformation;
Flexible signal and Event processing system;
Measurement and detection of Events occurring in >0,1s interval;
Generation of ready-made Reports;
Sending Reports to server, e-mail, messengers;
Self-diagnostics, authorization, access control.

10. Examples of devices
