An IoT Solution for Reliable Internet-Based Services

Abstract

This paper presents a straightforward solution to an existing internet service so as to enhance its reliability and safety. As the internet society proliferates, myriad of applications, services, and devices are added. Variations among these "things" become unmanageably incompatible. The advent of the Internet of Things or IoT has shed some light on the interoperability issue of these hodgepodges. The proposed framework thus rests on these IoT to achieve such objectives without having to reinvent the wheel or resort to any complex cost-ridden devices and software to operate. The principle is to set up an activity framework that integrates necessary devices to support the designated functionality. This in turn runs on mobile network to serve the internet community. A case study on taxi service apps, having CCTV, GPS, and other monitoring devices and software, is conducted to gauge the viability of the proposed framework. The survey result shows that users are concerned with a few reliability and IoT connectivity factors, namely, cost, schedule, delay, number of vehicles and their proximity. The prospect is promising to broaden the proposed framework in other means of transportation.

A Hybrid Model using Online and Operator for Traveler Assistance Via Smartphone

“…Anyhow, their principles will be adopted in the design of the proposed system. Sophatsathit [6] made use of IoT devices to harness the reliability of internet-based services is a principal basis for the design philosophy of the proposed system. The proposed system focuses on services for traveler that, in an urgent situation, becomes unavailable.…”
