Abstract
Effective navigation and distribution of traffic flow in large cities has become a hot topic in recent years. The authors have developed an advanced server side routing system which, together with client side navigation systems, is able not only to navigate cars according to their routing requests, but also to distribute traffic flow within a city. The main goal of the paper is to propose a distributed environment used for an advanced server side navigation system with a focus on effective usage of computational resources for different tasks that need to be solved within the system. A combination of cloud and high performance computing resources in one environment is proposed. The authors also developed a simulator for testing these distributed computational resources. The system and the simulator were tested on the infrastructure at IT4Innovations National Supercomputing Center in the Czech Republic.
