1 Introduction
In recent years, the amount of data is getting bigger so that the processing and analysis of data have become more complex. It is more hard to obtain useful information from the data. Big data technique is an useful and powerful solution [1,2,3]. Now its applications are applied to many fields such as healthcare, manufacturing, telecommunications, retail, energy, transportation, automotive, security, environment, etc. To conform the growth of Big Data applications, almost all major industries and companies in the world invested a lot of time and money in developing Big Data tecnology. Based on the Big Data technology, these industries and companies can analyze and process the massive data they have and finally come out the valuable information. IBM predicted that global data amount continue to grow rapidly. It is predicted that the data amount would breakthrough 8000 Exabyte (EB, 1EB = 1 Million Terabyte) in 2015. Data analysis is a quite common concept in life after collecting all the data, and then the analysis will come out the results to be the basis of future action and decision [4].
Accordingly, lage amount of big data techniques and cloud techniques are proposed. Barbierato et al. [5] adopted NoSQL to store big data since NoSQL provides a mechanism for storage and retrieval of data that is better than the tabular relations used in relational databases. Zhang et al. [6] and Yang et al. [7, 8] used HBase to store big data since HBase provides the distributed data storage cluster through HDFS in Hadoop. Their experiments indicate a good performance. Thus, both NoSQL and HBase have advantages in storing big data. Gu et al. [9] applied Hadoop MapReduse to process big data successfully. However, for processing real-time big data, Hadoop MapReduse is unable to show superiority due to the fact that Hadoop MapReduse needs more time on starting JOB and then distribute JOB to each node. To improve this drawback, the authors adopted the IN memory of Spark to achieve high-speed computation since Sparks in-memory primitives provide performance up to 100 times faster for certain applications. In addition, Spark requires a cluster manager and a distributed storage system. For cluster management, Spark supports standalone (native Spark cluster), Hadoop YARN, or Apache Mesos. For distributed storage, Spark can interface with a wide variety, including Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), Cassandra, OpenStack Swift, and Amazon S3. Thus, our proposed architecture will combine Spark with the distribution computation of Hadoop YARN to enhance performance [10].
In order to analyze and improve the public transport, a government utilizes GPS positioning to record the relevant map location of most urban public transport systems, coupled with the back-end processing of data transmission via GPRS or 3G to track the transport status [11, 12]. Figure 1 shows a bus positioning and data transmission scheme. Many cities provide these system services for users to know the bus location and estimate waiting time [13]. However, city traffic state is worsening due to the economic development and population growth. Zeng et al. proposed a novel multisensor traffic state assessment system based on incomplete data [14]. Their system comprises probe vehicle detection sensors, fixed detection sensors, and traffic state assessment algorithm. The results show that their system is effective to assess traffic state, and it is suitable for the urban intelligent transportation system. However, the analysis efficiency and storage of real-time data is not sufficient. It is necessary to combine big data architecture with cloud computing to solve the challenges including big data capture, big data storage, big data analysis, parallel computing, etc.
This work presents a cloud city traffic state assessment system using a novel big data architecture. The proposed system provides the real-time busses location and real-time traffic situation, especially the real-time traffic situation nearby, through open data, GPS, GPRS and cloud technologies. With the high-scalability cloud technologies, Hadoop and Spark, the proposed system architecture is first implemented successfully and efficiently. Next, we utilize moving average and clustering methods to find the area of traffic jam. Finally, two important experiments are performed. The first experiment indicates that the computing ability of Spark is better than that of Hadoop. In the second experiment, we apply moving average and clustering methods including DBSCAN, K-means, and Fuzzy C-means to efficiently find the area of traffic jam in Taiwan Boulevard which is the main road in Taichung city. Based on these experimental results, the provided system services are present via an advanced web technology.
The rest of the paper is as follows. Section 2 reviews some mathematical preliminaries. In Sect. 3, we introduce the proposed system design and implementation. Section 4 shows our experiment environment and results. In Sect. 5, some conclusions are given.
2 System architecture design and implementation
In this section, the proposed cloud city traffic state assessment system collects open data to provide real-time traffic state, especially the real-time traffic state nearby. Because the real-time data collected is huge and from different attributes, the proposed system first utilizes a novel cloud architecture of big data to store, process, and analyze a huge amount of real-time data and then provides useful traffic information and services by using irregular moving average and clustering. In addition, the proposed system also store the generated real-time information to be historical data for the improvement of the system accuracy.
2.1 Proposed cloud architecture of big data
The proposed system architecture, as shown in Fig. 4, is introduced in this section. First of all, we collect open data including real-time data and historical data from government server. The capture details are as follows: In real-time open data including bus dynamic location and weather information,we utilize Python Program to capture these real-time data from government server and then store these data in a file system HDFS managed by Big Data Distributed Database, Hbase, through a tool Hbase API, as shown in Fig. 2. Generally, historical data including bus GPS data is huge and with different format. To solve these two problems, we first utilize Python Program to capture these data respectively and then process the different format of these data by Apache Spark. Finally, the processed data are stored in Hbase. Figure 3 shows the history data collection.
Next, the data in HBase is transferred to Cloud Storage and processed based on the high-scalability cloud technologies [15,16,17], Hadoop [18] and Spark [19]. In data storage, we used Hadoop HDFS to be a cloud storage basis and then a NoSQL database for big data, namely HBase, is utilized to establish the cluster of distributed data storage including structured and unstructured data based on the Hadoop HDFS. In data analysis and computation, we adopted Spark to meet the requirement of the high-speed real-time computation since Spark can quickly assess and analyze the data stored in HBase. Finally, these results of analyzing real-time traffic situation is friendly present by web application service through several web technologies, java scritp, html5, and css3 combined with d3.jspquery. Figure 5 is the flowchart of the proposed cloud city traffic state assessment system.
2.2 System implementation
Fourteen nodes were used to build a cloud cluster platform by using Cloudera Manager, Two nodes as master, Twelve node as the computing node to set up Apache ZooKeeper 3.4.5, Apache Hadoop HDFS 2.5.0, Apache Hadoop YARN 2.5.0, Apache HBase 0.98.6, and Apache Spark 1.2.0.
2.3 Cluster deployment
On the deployment, platform environment using two servers as master, and using 10 Gigabit Ethernet connection. computing nodes using 1 Gigabit Ethernet, each node as DataNode, NodeManage, and RegionServer, where three computing nodes as ZooKeeper, as shown in Fig. 6.
Cloudera Manager is used to monitor service states and system loading, in service states such as Spark, HBase, HDFS, YARN and ZooKeeper service status, or in system loading such as CPU usage, Memory usage, Disk I/O, network and Disk usage.
Cloudera Manager can also monitor the status of each node, confirming normal connections of each host. Cloudera Manager checks at regular intervals, and it will warn if connections are abnormal or the connection quality is poor. Cloudera Manager can remove nodes at any time, adding or removing nodes into or out of the cluster.
Through the Fourteen hosts, i.e., the two NameNode and Twelve DataNodes, the Hadoop HDFS NameNode Web Interface shows that the cluster provides 10.47 TB of big data storage space. This information also shows how many live DataNodes are functioning shown in Fig. 7.
2.4 Implementation of the provided system services
In Taichung City Bus Dynamic System, there are 245 bus routes and over 1000 bus drive in these route at rush hour. Taichung City Bus Dynamic System provides each bus information in XML format including bus position, bus number, bus route, bus velocity, and so on. In addition, XML format is shown in Fig. 9 the Taichung City Bus Dynamic System updates each bus position every 20 s. For an instance, this thesis implement the proposed Cloud City Traffic State Assessment System in Taiwan Boulevard Taichung, Taiwan. First of all, the proposed system used python programming to captures the bus position updating data per second into our storage basis in Hadoop HBase. In this step, the host road is randomly divide into several blocks according to the intersection with other roads is shown in Figs. 8 and 10. Then, we apply Fuzzy C-means clustering mentioned in section Backgrounds and preliminaries to roughly classify the blocks and their size. Finally, the real-time traffic state in three levels, Jam, Normal, and Smooth for each block is evaluated by irregular moving average which is introduced as follow. Suppose \( N_{t}\) is the number of bus at time t and
is a subset of sample values, each of which denotes the average time of a bus within ith block. Then, a new series of
is called the irregular moving average of S which is obtained by the following calculation:
3 Performance comparison for different techniques
In this section, we have two performance comparisons for later use. The first is the computation ability of Spark and Hadoop. The second is the efficiency of three clustering methods,
3.1 Spark and Hadoop MapReduce performance comparison
To verify that Spark adopted in our system has better performance than Hadoop MapReduce, this subsection gives a comparison test for Spark and Hadoop using WordCount programming. First, ten test files of size 1GB 10GB are randomly generated and then put these files into HDFS. Next, the ten files in HDFS are executed by Spark and Hadoop individually. As shown in Fig. 11, Spark cost less time regardless of file size. It is worth mentioning that the difference between them increases when the test file size increases.
Data processing and analysis are important to the proposed system. Before data analysis, the proposed system needs to read and write data. In other words, data read and data write are two important parts in data processing. Since the proposed system store data in HDFS, we adopt Hadoop TESTDFSIO to test the read and write performance by changing replication number and MAP number in different data size to obtain the best solution. The detail is as follows. First of all, we test data read speed and data write speed in three data sizes, 12G, 60G, and 120G. In each data size, we increase the replication number from 1 to 12 to observe the data read speed and data write speed. At the same time, we adjust TESTDFSIO arguments to observe the data read speed and data write speed under various MAP number which is a multiple of number of cluster nodes, especially (1–5) number of nodes. Since TESTDFSIO is a MapReduce program, the test procedure is given as follows and as shown in Fig. 12:
-
Step 1. Input user parameters in beginning.
-
Step 2. Arrange the number of MAP and the data size for each MAP when reading and writing data.
-
Step 3. Read and write data into node by MAP.
-
Step 4. Estimate MAP execution time and collect corresponding results.
-
Step 5. Output the results.
In the results. Figure 13 Read and write time duration for MAP = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 in various replication number under the case 12GB.
Figure 14 Read and write time duration for MAP = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 in various replication number under the case 60GB.
Figure 15 Read and write time duration for MAP = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 in various replication number under the case 120GB. From above figures, one can observe that more replication number more writing time under various data size and various MAP but reading time slightly decreases when replication number increases, as shown in Fig. 16. In conclusion, replication 2 has the best result. In the point of view on different test size, writing time increases stably but reading time decreases unstably, as shown in Fig. 17. In addition, one can observe that both reading time and writing time are short for bigger data file. It means once reading or writing a big data file is efficient.
3.2 Using Spark to process bus location data under different number of executors
Most input data of the proposed system is obtained through the Government OPEN DATA. These input data are collected every two seconds from open data. The collected data are about 5GB one day. They will be a big historical data. Accordingly, the processing and calculation of these big data are achieved through Spark Application. To process and analyze the big data efficiently, two Spark Applications are test. Each Spark Application has 12 executors for testing one-day, two-day, four-day data and six kinds of memory size.
The first Spark Application, namely convBus, is mainly to remove unwanted data in BUS GPS information and duplicate data in accordance with the update time so as to find the Block of the given latitude and longitude coordinates. As shown in Fig. 18, the detail procedure is summarized as follows:
-
Step 1. Read BUS record data file.
-
Step 2. Filter necessary BUS information and remove XML format data.
-
Step 3. Use MAP to group Update Time and cluster coordinate into proper Block.
-
Step 4. Remove duplicate data.
-
Step 5. Output data to HDFS.
The second Spark Application, namely comBus, has almost the same procedures with the first Spark Application. The difference between them is that comBus has a permutation for Block in last two steps. As shown in Fig. 19, the detail procedure is summarized as follows:
-
Step 1. Read BUS record data file.
-
Step 2. Filter necessary BUS information and remove XML format data.
-
Step 3. Use MAP to group Update Time and cluster coordinate into proper Block.
-
Step 4. Remove duplicate data.
-
Step 5. Sort by Block.
-
Step 6. Output data to HDFS.
Figures 20, 21 and 22 show the execution time of using both convBus and comBus to process one-day, two-day and three-day data under different number of executors and different memory. One can observe that processing time decreases when executors increase under fixed memory. However, processing time is similar when memory increases, especially when executors are greater than three. We also observe that the execution time of comBus is greater than the execution time of convBus. To reduce their processing time, increase of the number of executors is a consideration.
3.3 Comparison of different clustering methods to find traffic jams
This section first finds traffic jams by three popular clustering methods: DBSCAN, K-means, Fuzzy-C-Means. Next, Apache Spark is utilized to compute the clustering methods efficiently and then some comparison results are given.
3.3.1 DBSCAN
Density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) is a density-based data clustering algorithm. DBSCAN requires two parameters: (eps) and the minimum number of points required to form a dense region (minPts). It starts with an arbitrary starting point that has not been visited. This point’s -neighborhood is retrieved, and if it contains sufficiently many points, a cluster is started. Otherwise, the point is labeled as noise. Note that this point might later be found in a sufficiently sized -environment of a different point and hence be made part of a cluster. If a point is found to be a dense part of a cluster, its -neighborhood is also part of that cluster. Hence, all points that are found within the -neighborhood are added, as is their own -neighborhood when they are also dense. This process continues until the density-connected cluster is completely found. Then, a new unvisited point is retrieved and processed, leading to the discovery of a further cluster or noise [20]. We utilize two epsilons and three minPts to test the performance of DBSCAN clustering. Figure 23(a–d) show the results in cases original, PTS = 3, PTS = 4, PTS = 5 under epsilon = 0.001. Figure 24(a–d) show the results in cases original, PTS = 3, PTS = 4, PTS = 5 under epsilon = 0.002. One can observe that the cluster decreases when PTS increases and the searching area enlarges when epsilon increases.
3.3.2 K-means
K-Means clustering is a method of cluster analysis which aims to partition n observations into k clusters in which each observation belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean. Given a set of observations \(\left( {x_1 ,x_2 ,\ldots ,x_n } \right) \) where each observation is a d-dimensional real vector, k-means clustering aims to partition the n observations into k sets \( \left\{ {s_1 ,s_2 ,\ldots ,s_k } \right\} \) so as to minimize the within-cluster sum of squares
where \(\mu _i \) is the mean of points in \(s_i \). [21, 22] We utilize k = 3 and two iterations to test the performance of K-MEANS clustering. Figure 25(a–d) show the results in cases original, k = 10, k = 50, k = 100 under iteration = 100. Figure 26(a–d) show the results in cases original, k = 10, k = 50, k = 100 under iteration = 1000. One can observe that the clustering fails when k is very small and works when k is sufficient.
3.3.3 Fuzzy C-means
The fuzzy C-means (FCM) [23, 24] attempts to partition a finite collection of n elements
into a collection of c fuzzy clusters with respect to some given criterion. Given a finite set of data, the algorithm returns a list of p cluster centres
and a partition matrix
where each element \(u_{ij}\) tells the degree to which element \(x_j\) belongs to cluster \(c_i \). Then FCM aims to minimize an objective function J:
where
represent weighting;
denotes the distance between \(c_i \) and \(x_j \). By introducing Lagrange multiplier \(\lambda _i \), the above objective function is rewritten as
and the optimal cluster is
We utilize three k-values and two iterations to test the performance of K-MEANS clustering. Figure 27(a–d) show the results in cases original, k = 10, k = 50, k = 100 under iteration = 50. Figure 28(a–d) show the results in cases original, k = 10, k = 50, k = 100 under iteration=100. One can observe that the clustering fails when k is very small and works when k is sufficient.
3.4 Results comparison
Figure 29(a–d) show the clustering results in cases original, DBSCAN with EPS = 0.001/PTS = 5, K-means with k-value = 100/Iteration = 100, Fuzzy-C-means with k-value = 100/Iterations = 50. From the results in Figure 5, we know that Fuzzy-C-Means has the best clustering but k-means and DBSCAN use less time.
4 Experimental environment and results
In this section, experimental environment and results with respect to the proposed Cloud City Traffic State Assessment System using open data, GPS, GPRS in Taichung city, Taiwan are present. Figure 30 shows Taichung City bus Dynamic Positioning. We adopt K-Means clustering to efficiently find the area of traffic jam in Taichung city, Taiwan and then the proposed irregular moving average is utilized to find the area of traffic jam in Taiwan Boulevard which is the main road in Taichung city. Based on these experimental results, the provided system services are present via an advanced web technology.
4.1 Experimental environment
This subsection introduces our environmental environment including hardware and software. To implement the proposed system, we use 12 physical servers connected by Gigabit Ethernet to establish a cluster as shown in Fig. 31. In hardware, each physical server is Intel Core i7 CPU with 16GB Memory and 1TB HD. In software, Ubuntu 14.04 is adopted as our operating systems. Also, Cloudera Express 5.2.0 Hadoop 2.5.0 HBase 0.98.6 Spark 1.1.0 Zookeeper 3.4.5 are installed.
4.2 Cloud city traffic state assessment system
In this work, the proposed Cloud City Traffic State Assessment System offers the user to understand the Traffic State through a Web-based User-friendly interface using Html5, CSS3, JavaScript, and JQuery with semantic Front End. Figure 32 and the left side of Fig. 33 show the following three results.
-
Historical data provide the average speed of a bus and the area of traffic jam in the past by a line chart, as shown in Fig. 34.
-
Real-time evaluation provide real-time traffic state, bus speed, and distribution of busses, as shown in Figs. 35,36.
-
Clustering results provide the clustering results of DBSCAN, K-Means and Fuzzy C-means.
Moreover, we use AJAX and Openstreetmap to update web-page information and Map information.
4.3 Cloud city traffic state assessment system in Taiwan Boulevard
This subsection implements the proposed Cloud City Traffic State Assessment System in Taiwan Boulevard. First, the host road is randomly divide into several blocks according to the intersection with other roads is shown in Figs. 8 and 10 and k-means clustering is applied to roughly classify the blocks and their size in Taichung city, Taiwan. Next, the real-time buses average velocity is compared with the past average velocity in each block to indicate whether the traffic in each block is heavy by using irregular moving average. As shown in resulting table of Fig. 37, the second column shows the past average velocity while the third column shows the real-time buses average velocity. The forth column shows the traffic state in each block.
5 Conclusions and future work
In this work, we present a cloud city traffic state assessment system using a novel architecture of big data. With the high-scalability cloud technologies, Hadoop and Spark, the proposed system architecture for big data and services is implemented in Taiwan Boulevard efficiently. In addition, experimental results show that Spark adopted in our system has better performance than Hadoop MapReduce. For the system interface, this work designed a front-end web interface providing users to view traffic status in Taiwan Boulevard so that a user can both know the real-time traffic state and view the history of traffic status. In the future, we expect to apply this system to all roads in Taichung and to improve the accuracy of traffic state assessment.
