Service Monitor System --> Multi-Access Edge Computing:
time local form

This flow may also be implemented by Service Monitor System --> Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment: time local form

Definitions

time local form (Information Flow): Time local form includes UTC time synchronized with the external source in a format usable by connected vehicle center functions.

Service Monitor System (Source Physical Object): The 'Service Monitor System' represents one or more center-based systems that provide monitoring, management and control services necessary to other applications and/or devices operating within the Connected Vehicle Environment. These support services enable other applications to provide transportation services.

Multi-Access Edge Computing (Destination Physical Object): 'Multi-Access Edge Computing' ((MEC) previously known as mobile edge computing) represents computing devices that operate and are managed like a cloud server, but are deployed at the edge of a network (typically a cellular network, but it could be any network). While not in strict proximity to the transportation network, these systems do benefit from vastly decreased distances to the roadway compared to central systems, and so can provide lower latency than strictly backoffice systems

Communication Solutions

  • NTP - UDP/IP (11)
Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

NTP - UDP/IP

Solution Description

This solution is used within Australia, Canada, the E.U. and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with NTP with those for I-I: UDP/IP. The NTP standards include standards required to reliably set time information in a subsystem. The I-I: UDP/IP standards include lower-layer standards that support the Network Time Protocol that allows NTP servers to provide time synchronization services to other NTP servers and clients.

Note that some layers might have alternatives, in which case all of the gap icons associated with every alternative may be shown on the diagram, but the solution severity calculations (and resulting ordering of solutions) includes only the issues associated with the default (i.e., best, least severe) alternative.

  Confidentiality Integrity Availability
Rating Not Applicable High Moderate
Basis Time reference is intended to be univerally available. Time must be highly coordinated for some applications. This support function must meet the highest requirement. Time coordination must always be in place, but local mechanisms for tracking time should suffice to avoid catastrophic failures for known use cases, thus MODERATE.
