Abstract

T.R.A.F.F.I.C is an acronym representing Transit Response Analysis for Facilitating Informed Commuters. T.R.A.F.F.I.C. is a web service hosted in the cloud which uses real-time Big Data from TRANSCOM, a non-profit firm. We are mining for potential congested traffic patterns which may impair one´s timely commute during rush hour. T.R.A.F.F.I.C is based on the service-oriented architecture (SOA) web service technology. The project description, system design, key technical challenges, lessons learned and related works are discussed in this paper. The content in this paper not only gives a case study for SOA, but also provides a new and effective solution for end-users of Intelligent Transportation Services (ITS) solutions.
