Abstract:
System, methods, and embodiments described herein relate to controlling a vehicular micro cloud, which may include a plurality of vehicle members each having respective positions in a formation and in which two or more of the vehicle members collaboratively execute at least one micro cloud operation. Control may be implemented to monitor performance of the at least one micro cloud operation, monitor operational capabilities of the vehicle members, determine, based at least in part on the operational capabilities of the vehicle members, a change in formation position for at least one of the vehicle members, wherein the change in formation position improves the performance of the at least one micro cloud operation and transmit one or more commands to cause the vehicle members to execute the change in formation position.
