Abstract(s)
Os Sistemas Inteligentes de Transporte vão desempenhar um papel importante na evolução das cidades para Cidades Inteligentes. A interligação dos veículos em redes veiculares vai permitir novas aplicações de gestão e segurança das estradas e, também, sistemas de informação e entretenimento a bordo dos veículos.
Em 2014, no Porto, foi criada a maior rede mesh veicular do mundo com a interligação de 400 autocarros, permitindo o acesso à Internet através de Wi-Fi aos seus passageiros.
Embora muito útil para os utilizadores, este serviço não dispõe de uma forma sistemática de monitorização da experiência de utilização percecionada pelo utilizador.
Assim, e para colmatar esta lacuna de informação quanto ao serviço, desenvolveu-se uma solução permite avaliar a experiência de utilização do mesmo, através do desenvolvimento e validação de uma plataforma de monitorização automática do serviço disponibilizado nesta ede veicular.
A solução desenvolvida consiste num sistema de testes automático a bordo do autocarro e que simula a interação de um utilizador com o serviço, executando as etapas necessárias para a utilização do mesmo, avaliando a sua disponibilidade, desempenho e performance.
Intelligent Transportation Systems will play a major role in the evolution from cities to Smart Cities. The connection of vehicles in vehicular networks will allow new services for security and management of roads and, also, information and entertainment services on board of vehicles. In 2014, in Porto, the world’s biggest vehicular mesh network was created with the connection of 400 buses, giving its passengers Wi-Fi Internet access. Although very useful to its users, this service didn’t have a systematic way to monitor the experience perceived by the user. As such, in order to fill this gap of information about the service, we created a solution that would allow the evaluation of the user experience of the service, through the development and validation of a platform of automatic monitoring of the service available in this vehicular network. The developed solution consists on an automatic testing system on board of the bus that simulates a user interacting with the service, executing the necessary steps to use it.
