The use of autonomic approach to multi-modal journey planners

Multi-modal journey planners are very important part of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) services. Generally Multi-modal journey planners allow affordable selection of different modes of transportation during one trip, according to the current status of the transport network. Autonomic property may allow some optimization possibilities on the user own preferences and real time information about current transport network status. Journey planners as innovative services give clear and precise instructions from the current place of user to required destination. Instructions may consist of walking time estimation up to the public transport, the time of his departure from the station, travel time estimation according to the current traffic conditions, the number of stations to the next place where the user needs to transfer at a different mode of travel, etc. The paper presents some objectives of autonomic approach for these applications. Some development specifications of autonomic multi- modal journey planners are given, also. On this base some guidelines for development of autonomic service-oriented journey planners are proposed.
