Abstract

In area traffic coordination systems, both local and centralised databases play a very important role. They serve as massive historical and real-time data containers. Managing such a huge repository of information in on-line mode requires highly specialised tools embedded in tele-transmission solutions provided by CC (Cloud Computing) technology. The use of this tool become the basis of the traffic control systems in Intelligent Transport Systems presented and described in this paper as an example. This article shortly presents the database tools of Microsoft Azure technology (CC) and refers to well known database tools of Windows platform (i.e. MS SQL). The next presents database distributed management system supervising defined area traffic connections were take place a road traffic collision. The analyzed service is an example of a cloud computing application using an SQL Azure database to modify control parameters for a selected of intersections. Such modification occurs when a priority request for an event is handled (interrupt generated during a car traffic collision).

Notes

  1. 1.

    A proposition of just such a system branded OSEK/VDX Vehicle Distributed Executive was first presented in 1995. The architecture of the AUTOSAR (AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture) system acc. HIS (German Hersteller-Initiative Software).

  2. 2.

    ANSI-SPARC - American National Standards Institute, Standards Planning And Requirements Committee).

  3. 3.

    This service is especially useful in centrally-controlled distributed traffic coordination system.

  4. 4.

    for the main example in the article, i.e. a information message with collision information.

  5. 5.

    local data means stored data assigned to a single local controller in an area traffic management system in an intersection.

  6. 6.

    The form of presentation depends on an application.

  7. 7.

    Horizon.tv video on-demand - as a service - for example provided by UPC Poland, iplainternet TV (including mobile devices).

  8. 8.

    One of them was described in [13].
