Urooj Yousuf Khan, Muhammad Nawaz Brohi, Tariq Rahim Soomro · Journal of Engineering and Technology · 2019
The cities of the future are smart and fully connected. They are the ultimate application of Internet of Things. The travelling in such a city will be completely autonomous and routes would be predefined. This requires reliable, fault-tolerant system design and uninterrupted connectivity. The question of interrupted connectivity can be answered largely by Fog-Cloud Network. However, the optimal placement of Fog node requires a specific design pattern. The paper proposes a design pattern that can be utilized for placement of Fog nodes along the continuum. The paper proposes Fog as a possible player in realizing fully connected travelling.
