ON THE CHALLENGES OF MOBILITY PREDICTION IN SMART CITIES

Abstract. The mass of data generated from people’s mobility in smart cities is constantly increasing, thus making a new business for large companies. These data are often used for mobility prediction in order to improve services or even systems such as the development of location-based services, personalized recommendation systems, and mobile communication systems. In this paper, we identify the mobility prediction issues and challenges serving as guideline for researchers and developers in mobility prediction. To this end, we first identify the key concepts and classifications related to mobility prediction. We then, focus on challenges in mobility prediction from a deep literature study. These classifications and challenges are for serving further understanding, development and enhancement of the mobility prediction vision.
