  • Patent number: 11128734
    Abstract: Communication network architectures, systems and methods for supporting a network of mobile nodes. As a non-limiting example, various aspects of this disclosure provide communication network architectures, systems, and methods for supporting a dynamically configurable communication network comprising a complex array of both static and moving communication nodes (e.g., the Internet of moving things).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 5, 2017
    Date of Patent: September 21, 2021
    Assignee: VENIAM, INC.
    Inventors: Eduardo da Cruz Antunes Moreira da Mota, João Pedro Coelho de Azevedo, Dário Fernando Rodrigues Nascimento
  • Patent number: 10621860
    Abstract: Various aspects of this disclosure provide communication network architectures, systems, and methods for supporting a network of mobile nodes that includes. Some non-limiting examples are communication network architectures, systems, and methods for supporting a dynamically configurable communication network comprising a complex array of both static and moving communication nodes (e.g., the Internet of moving things). The disclosure further provides characterizing and managing driving behavior in the context of a network of moving things, including for use in autonomous vehicles.

  • Patent number: 10264425
    Abstract: Systems and methods for self-initialization and automated bootstrapping of mobile access points in a network of moving things. A software application directs an automated system for the pre-initialization and provisioning of various elements of a network of moving things by gathering information about network element hardware components, accesses and installs on the network element the appropriate software components, a performs testing of the provisioned network element. Information identifying the hardware, software, and results of testing of the provisioned network element are made available on a cloud-based repository. This enables network personnel and management, and suppliers of the network elements components to track and manage provisioning, performance, and trouble information.
