Summary

The Internet of Things (IoT) and the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) have extensive potential applications in various fields, such as smart healthcare, smart industry, intelligent agriculture, and transportation. Despite these promising prospects, designing productive IoT and IoV systems involves several major challenges. For example, communication networks must be fault-resistant in order to achieve reliable information distribution; data collection, processing and transmission may incur excessive delay and data loss, which would reduce the reliability of IoT and IoV; ensuring the security and privacy of users in heterogeneous IoT and IoV is not straightforward. The newest developments including edge computing, 5G communication technologies, reinforcement learning, federated learning, and other technologies provide effective solutions to these problems.


The goal of this Special Issue is to focus on security, reliability, resource optimization, sensor topology optimization, and sensor information collection and analysis in IoT and IoV systems. We particularly welcome the achievements yielded by the investigation of novel communication and networking technologies in IoT and IoV, such as ultra-reliable and low-latency communication, intelligent communication network collaboration, communication performance analysis and optimization. This Research Topic invites novel contributions from academia and industrial sectors to research, develop and investigate the opportunities, challenges, and solutions related to the implementation of innovative architectures, methods, approaches, and technologies for IoT and IoV.

    Abstract The current resource allocation in 5G vehicular networks for mobile cloud communication faces several challenges, such as low user utilization, unbalanced resource allocation, and extended adaptive allocation time. We propose an adaptive allocation algorithm for mobile cloud communication resources in 5G vehicular networks to address these issues. This study analyzes the components of the 5G vehicular network architecture to determine the performance of different components. It is ascertained that the communication modes in 5G vehicular networks for mobile cloud communication include in-band and out-of-band modes. Furthermore, this study analyzes the single-hop and multi-hop modes in… More >

    Dynamic Offloading and Scheduling Strategy for Telematics Tasks Based on Latency Minimization

    Yu Zhou, Yun Zhang, Guowei Li, Hang Yang, Wei Zhang, Ting Lyu, Yueqiang Xu

    Abstract In current research on task offloading and resource scheduling in vehicular networks, vehicles are commonly assumed to maintain constant speed or relatively stationary states, and the impact of speed variations on task offloading is often overlooked. It is frequently assumed that vehicles can be accurately modeled during actual motion processes. However, in vehicular dynamic environments, both the tasks generated by the vehicles and the vehicles’ surroundings are constantly changing, making it difficult to achieve real-time modeling for actual dynamic vehicular network scenarios. Taking into account the actual dynamic vehicular scenarios, this paper considers the real-time… More >
