Cloud Computing for Intelligent Transportation System

Intelligent transportation clouds could provideServices such as autonomy, mobility, decision support and thestandard development Environment for traffic managementstrategies, and so on. With mobile agent technology, anurban-traffic management system based on Agent-BasedDistributed and Adaptive Platforms for Transportation Systems(Adapts) is both feasible and effective. However, the large-scaleuse of mobile agents will lead to the emergence of a complex,powerful organization layer that requires enormous computingand power resources. To deal with this problem, we propose aprototype urban-traffic management system using multi agentbased intelligent traffic clouds. Cloud computing can help us tohandle the large amount of storage resources and masstransportation of data effectively and efficiently.
