For decades, researchers on Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) and autonomous vehicles presented various solutions for vehicular safety and autonomy, respectively. Yet, the developed work in these two areas has been mostly conducted in their own separate worlds, and barely affect one-another despite the obvious relation- ships. In the coming years, the Internet of Vehicles Internet of Vehicles (IOV), encompassing sensing, communications, connectivity, processing, networking, and computation is expected to bridge many technologies to offer value-added information for the navi- gation of self-driving vehicles, to reduce vehicle on board computation, and to deliver desired functionalities. Potentials for bridging the gap between these two worlds and creating synergies of these two technologies have recently started to attract significant attention of many companies and government agencies. We present a comprehensive survey and an overview of the emerging key challenges related to the two worlds of Vehicular Clouds (VCs) including communications, networking, traffic modelling, medium access, VC Computing Vehicular Cloud Computing (VCC), VC collation strategies, secu- rity issues, and autonomous driving Autonomous Driving (AD) including 3D environment learning approaches and AD enabling deep-learning, computer vision and Artificial Intel- ligence Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques. We then discuss the recent related work and potential trends on merging these two worlds in order to enrich vehicle cognition of its surroundings, and enable safer and more informed and coordinated AD systems.

Yet, the developed work in these two areas has been mostly conducted in their own separate worlds, and barely affect one-another despite the obvious relation- ships.

Potentials for bridging the gap between these two worlds and creating synergies of these two technologies have recently started to attract significant attention of many companies and government agencies.

520 $a Modern vehicles are equipped with advanced communication, computation and storage capabilities in On-Board Units (OBUs), that are used to form a Vehicular Cloud Vehicular Cloud (VC) as coalitions of affordable resources to host infotainment applications. With the limitation of static vehicular communication schemes and the computational capa- bilities constraints in vehicular micro-datacenter, VCs have overcome these technological limitations. VCs are supposed to maximize the usage of Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) communications over Service Channels (SCHs) for non-safety applications while maintaining reliable short-lived safety applications Vehicle to Vehicle Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications in the Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) technology. We present a novel Advanced Activity-Aware (AAA) scheme to enhance Multi-Channel Operations based on IEEE 1609.4 standard in MAC Protocol implemented in Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments Wireless Access for Vehicular Environment (WAVE). The developed AAA scheme relies on the awareness of the vehicular safety load. It aims at dynamically finding an optimal setup for switching between Service Channel Interval (SCHI) and Control Channel Interval (CCHI) by decreasing every inactivity in the network. Our scheme is implemented using NS3 and maintains the default Synchronization Interval Synchronization Interval (SI), as defined by the standard in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs).
520 $a In addition, we evaluate a sequentially and a parallel CUDA-accelerated Markov Decision Process Markov Decision Process (MDP) based scheme and a fast greedy heuristics algorithm to optimize the problem of vehicular task placement with both IEEE 1609.4 and opportunistically available V2I of AAA scheme. We derive the system reward of Vehicular Cloud Computing VCC by considering the overall utilization of the virtualized resources of the distributed Vehicular Clouds (VCs) as well as the optimality of the solution of placement of the vehicular Bag-of-Tasks (BOTs).
520 $a We present our vision to create such a beneficial link by designing a multimodal scheme for object detection, recognition, and mapping based on the fusion of stereo camera frames, point cloud Velodyne LIDAR scans, and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) Basic Safety Messages Basic Safety Messages (BSMs) exchanges using VANET protocols. Exploiting the high similarities in the underlying manifold properties of the three data sets, and their high neighborhood correlation, the proposed scheme employs semi-supervised manifold alignment to merge the key features of rich texture descriptions of objects from 2D images, depth and distance between objects provided by 3D point cloud, and awareness of self- declared vehicles from BSMs' 3D information including the ones not seen by camera and LIDAR. The proposed scheme is applied to create joint pixel-to-point-cloud and pixel- to-V2V correspondences of objects in frames from the KITTI Vision Benchmark Suite, using a semi-supervised manifold alignment, to achieve camera-LIDAR and camera-V2V mapping of their recognized objects. We present the alignment accuracy results over 2 different driving sequences and illustrate the additional acquired knowledge of objects from the various input modalities. We also study the effect of the number of neighbors employed in the alignment process on the alignment accuracy.
