Abstract
Recently, with the development of advanced network techniques, innovative control theories, and emerging cloud computing, vehicular networking serves as one of the most important enabling technologies. Together with an explosive growth in the usage of smart phones, their applications and emerging of cloud computing concept, mobile cloud computing (MCC) has been introduced to be a potential technology for mobile services. In this article, we first introduce the survey of vehicular networking and MCC. Next we illustrate the concept, structure and development of the service platform based on mobile cloud computing for vehicular networking. Then we give a new service model called Mobile-as-a-Personal-Proxy (MaaPP) of the service platform. Finally, we outline the relevant research challenges. We hope to inspire more technological development and progress for MCC applications.
