Patent attributes
In one embodiment, a prediction agent process collects travel information of a vehicle, and determines a profile of the vehicle, the profile indicative of one or more real-time resource requirements of the vehicle. The prediction agent process also predicts a path of the vehicle based on the travel information, and determines a next resource node along the predicted path having one or more real-time resources corresponding to the one or more real-time resource requirements of the vehicle. After further predicting a time of arrival of the vehicle being within range of the next resource node based on the travel information, the prediction agent process informs the next resource node of the profile of the vehicle and the predicted time of arrival, the informing causing the next resource node to operate the one or more real-time resources for the vehicle for the predicted time of arrival.
