Abstract: A method of distributedly storing data in a system comprising a plurality of edge nodes communicatively coupled to an end device and a central cloud. The method includes: receiving, by a first edge node, data transmitted by the end device; assigning, by the first edge node, a data tag to received data according to attributes of the received data and duplicating the received data to generate a tagged data copy; and transmitting, by the first edge node, the tagged data copy to at least one second edge node determined by a data distribution policy determined by the central cloud directly or through the central cloud, so that the at least one second edge node store the tagged data copy in a storage.

Abstract: Provided are a driving negotiation method and apparatus for supporting stability against a blind spot, an unexpected situation, etc. and a rapid judgment and response of an autonomous vehicle in various driving environments. The driving negotiation apparatus includes a wireless communication module configured to support vehicle to everything (V2X) communication and at least one processor connected to the wireless communication module. The at least one processor receives a cooperative request message from a first vehicle, broadcasts a cooperative request message and additional information required for a negotiation to surrounding vehicles, receives a cooperative response message from at least one second vehicle among the surrounding vehicles, and transmits a message indicating that the negotiation is possible or impossible to the first vehicle on the basis of the cooperative response message.

Abstract: A pseudonym certificate management method, performed by a pseudonym certificate management apparatus interworking with an external server, may comprise: receiving, from the external server, a pseudonym certificate in a state locked based on a root value identifiable only by the external server; periodically receiving an unlocking key for the pseudonym certificate from the external server; activating the pseudonym certificate with the unlocking key; and when the activated pseudonym certificate is abnormal, deactivating the pseudonym certificate.

Abstract: A data tracking method, which is performed by a data tracking apparatus in an edge cloud environment including at least one edge node communicating with an end device and a central cloud, includes receiving data from the end device by a first edge node, creating, by the first edge node, a tracing history and distributing the data to a plurality of edge nodes so as to allow the plurality of edge nodes to create tracing histories, transmitting the created tracing histories to the central cloud by the first edge node and the plurality of edge nodes, and verifying, by the central cloud, linkability of the tracing histories transmitted to the central cloud, storing the tracing histories, analyzing the tracing histories, and providing a data tracking function.
