Telematics


A service can take different forms. For instance the service "Route Guidance" can be
autonomous (the service is performed within the car) or decentralised (route
calculation is done in a central computer and the results are transferred to the vehicle).
At the analysis level, one will choose the way to deliver the service. At that stage,
each form of a service is called an application. As mentioned in the definition of
service, these two applications of route guidance have common attributes: the type. of
data provided is the same and serves the same purpose: guiding the driver.
A system is the physical implementation of an application (and therefore of a service)
and is a collection of interrelated elements which interact with one another towards a
common purpose. A system possesses properties different from the collection of
properties of the individual parts. Each system element performs a certain function.
