ABSTRACT

Continuing connected vehicle research recognizes that a framework is needed from which potential vehicle, handheld device, and infrastructure interfaces can be identified and analyzed for standardization. Because there are many types of connected vehicle applications and underlying system definitions, the subsequent system architecture was based on the fundamentals of the International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers 42010:2011 standard “Systems and software engineering—Architecture description”. Mobility contains border, commercial vehicle fleet operations, commercial vehicle roadside operations, freight advanced traveler information systems, planning and performance monitoring, public safety, traffic network, traffic signals, transit, and traveler information applications. Environmental applications are grouped into Applications for the Environment—Real-Time Information Synthesis and sustainable travel, and road and weather systems. The Enterprise Viewpoint addresses the relationships between organizations and the roles of those organizations in the delivery of services in the connected vehicle environment.
