A Machine to Machine framework for the charging of Electric Autonomous Vehicles

Electric Autonomous Vehicles (EAVs) have gained increasing attention of industry, governments and scientific communities concerned about issues related to classic transportation including accidents and casualties, gas emissions and air pollution, intensive traffic and city viability. One of the aspects, however, that prevent a broader adoption of this technology is the need for human interference to charge EAVs, which is still mostly manual and time-consuming. This study approaches such a problem by introducing the Inno-EAV, an open-source charging framework for EAVs that employs machine-to-machine (M2M) distributed communication. The idea behind M2M is to have networked devices that can interact, exchange information and perform actions without any manual assistance of humans. The advantages of the Inno-EAV include the automation of charging processes and the collection of relevant data that can support better decision making in the spheres of energy distribution. In this paper, we present the software design of the framework, the development process, the emphasis on the distributed architecture and the networked communication, and we discuss the back-end database that is used to store information about car owners, cars, and charging stations

Dinamičko formiranje distribuiranog mikro okruženja u računarstvu u oblaku

This thesis presents research in the field of distributed systems. We present the dynamic organization of geodistributed edge nodes into micro data-centers forming micro clouds to cover any arbitrary area and expand capacity, availability, and reliability. A cloud organization is used as an influence with adaptations for a different environment with a clear separation of concerns, and native applications model that can leverage the newly formed system. With the separation of concerns setup, edge-native applications model, and a unified node organization, we are moving towards the idea of edge computing as a service, like any other utility in cloud computing. We also give formal models for all protocols used for the creation of such a system.U sklopu disertacije izvršeno je istraživanje u oblasti distribuiranih sistema. Predstavili smo dinamičku organizaciju geo-distribuiranih čvorova u mikro centre za obradu podataka koji formiraju mikro okruženja računarstva u oblaku kako bi pokrili bilo koje proizvoljno područje i proširili kapacitet, dostupnost i pouzdanost. Koristili smo organizaciju računarstva u oblaku kao inspiraciju, sa adaptacijama za drugačije okruženje sa jasnom podelom nadležnosti, i modelom aplikacija koji može da iskoristi novoformirani sistem. Jasna podela nadležnosti, model aplikacija i dinamička organizacijom čvorova, čine da se predstavljeni model ponude kao i bilo koji drugi uslužni servis. Takođe dajemo formalne modele za sve protokole koji se koriste za stvaranje takvog sistema
