***The inclusion of sophisticated computing devices, numerous sensors, geo-localization tools, and wireless capabilities in vehicles, has largely been targeted towards addressing transportation issues such as vehicle safety and highway congestion. These capabilities constitute, however, a phenomenal ubiquitous platform which is mobile, can sense, compute, store data and communicate at virtually no extra infrastructure deployment cost. In fact, vehicles could be seen as mobile micro-data centers which can provide services to users or service providers. Conversely, with the advent of cloud computing, vehicles could benefit from services on-demand, by leveraging elastic resources available in the cloud to cater smart functionality for passengers, beyond those embedded in their on-board systems.***The objective of this research program is to design new architectures, tools, and algorithms to enable the concept of vehicular cloud computing.***Three PhD and three MSc students will receive training in this research program. They will acquire advanced knowledge in communication networks, vehicular networking, and new wireless communication techniques and protocols. The skills developed by the students will be in high demand with the growing popularity of on-board connected services and applications.

***在车辆中加入先进的计算设备、大量传感器、地理定位工具和无线功能，主要是为了解决车辆安全和高速公路拥堵等交通问题。然而，这些功能构成了一个惊人的无处不在的平台，该平台是移动的，可以感知、计算、存储数据和通信，几乎不需要额外的基础设施部署成本。事实上，车辆可以被视为移动的微型数据中心，可以为用户或服务提供商提供服务。相反，随着云计算的出现，车辆可以从按需服务中受益，通过利用云中可用的弹性资源为乘客提供超越车载系统中嵌入的智能功能。***此目的研究项目旨在设计新的架构、工具和算法，以实现车辆云计算的概念。***三名博士生和三名硕士生将在该研究项目中接受培训。他们将获得通信网络、车辆网络以及新的无线通信技术和协议方面的高级知识。随着车载互联服务和应用程序的日益普及，对学生培养的技能的需求将会很高。
