Abstract

Because of its usefulness in various fields including as safety applications, traffic control applications, and entertainment applications, VANET is an essential topic that is now being investigated intensively. VANET confronts numerous challenges in terms of reaction time, storage capacity, and reliability, particularly in real-time applications. As a result, merging cloud computing and cloud computing has recently been researched. The goal of this study is to develop a system that merges the fog and cloud layers into a single layer known as the included fog-cloud layer. To lower the time it takes for real-time applications on VANETs to respond while also improving data flow management over the Internet and achieving an efficient perception service while avoiding the high cost of cloud connectivity.
