Formal Specification of a Truck Geo-Location Big-Data Application

Abstract

In the last few year's social networks, e-commerce, mobile commerce, and sensor networks have resulted into an exponential increase in data size. This data comes in all formats i.e. structured, un-structured and semi-structured. To efficiently extract useful information from these huge data sources is important. This information can play a central role in making future decisions and strategies. A truck geo-location big-data application integrated with formal model is proposed. The truck geo-location data is un-structured and it is accessed and manipulated by Hadoop query engine. Labelled transition system based formal model of the application is proposed to ensure safety and liveness properties of correctness.
