MD-UTS: um modelo para desenvolvimento de sistemas ubíquos de transporte

Abstract

The use of mobile and ubiquitous computing has been stimulated by the widespread diffusion of mobile devices, wireless networks and location systems. In this context, numerous applications are emerging in different areas such as education, entertainment, commerce and transport. This thesis proposes the MD-UTS, a model for development of ubiquitous transport systems. The model allows management of different types of vehicles in a given region. The vehicles are managed according to their profiles, making a historical record of their movement. The model provides information through web services that can be used by different applications. The thesis also describes two applications that use the MD-UTS to manage urban transport. The MD-UTS has been integrated into urban transport simulator called SUMO (Simulation of Urban Mobility) to generate data about the vehicles. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed, facilitating the construction of applications directed to the transport system.
