The main research question will focus on the scientific foundation and methods for a platform that enables distributed on-board data processing in vehicles. In the context of knowledge discovery, this will require data to be accessed and queried in a distributed and location-transparent fashion so that traditional offline analysis can be complemented with research in the following areas:


* Live data analysis and subsequent
* Continuous aggregation and transfer of statistical information from thousands of vehicles with consistent and deterministic intra- and inter-vehicle parallel and distributed analysis.
* Development of statistical and machine learning methodologies in a parallel and distributed environment.



The project is a collaboration between Volvo Cars, Volvo Group Truck Technology, Chalmers University of Technology, Fraunhofer Chalmers Centre and Alkit Communications AB.
