Abstract

The idea of the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) has begun with the emergence of the Internet of things (IoT) and big data. This concept of IoV allows for information exchange between vehicles-to-anything (V2X), such as other vehicles, pedestrians, and mobile devices to enhance road safety and traffic management. However, network operation and management become more complex with an increase in the number of IoV devices. Although virtualization is a key enabler to providing flexible and automated network management and network resources optimization for vehicular services, a continuous information gathering from roadside infrastructure is greatly required. To this end, in this paper, a system is proposed to exploit the potential of Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) and virtualization technologies to maintain the status of the underlying network on the intermediate layer. This would lead to enhanced data processing performance as well as the availability of pre-processed or real-time data of the vehicular network to the newly introduced services despite the disconnection periods of vehicles.
