Abstract
This disclosure describes various embodiments for resource optimization in a vehicle. In an embodiment, a system for resource optimization in a vehicle is described. The system may comprise a memory; a processor coupled to the memory; and a resource optimization module. The resource optimization module may be configured to: monitor usage of local computing resources of the vehicle, the local computing resources comprising the processor and available bandwidth of a transmission medium; determine an availability of the local computing resources; evaluate data captured by one or more sensors of the vehicle; and determine whether to process the data locally or remotely based, at least in part, on the availability of the local computing resources and the data captured by the one or more sensors.
