Abstract :
Vehicular Cloud Computing (VCC) denotes a shared pool of computing resources in a set of wirelessly connected vehicles, which are available for on- demand and rapid access based on the pay-as-you-go fashion. VCC consolidates the benefits of Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) and vehicular communications. Prior to the VCC concept being widely adopted, several research issues and challenges need to be carefully addressed in such environment. Privacy, service cost and provisioning delay are identified as the most crucial challenges to be addressed. State of the art includes several proposals to address these issues however a combined solution that aims to address these requirements holistically does not exist. This paper refines our recently presented frameworks in the works of Aloqaily et al. (2014) and Aloqaily et al.(2015), and extends it by building a generalized multi-objective framework, namely Auction-driven QoE Provisioning (AQoEP). A Trusted Third Party (TTP) approach has been adopted to address such challenges. Simulations results are extensively studied to proof the concept of the proposed framework. Through simulations, we proof that AQoEP in a vehicular cloud better fulfils the vehicular service requirements than any other proposed approach.
