Abstract
Communication network architectures, systems and methods for supporting and/or effectively utilizing a network of mobile and/or static nodes. As a non-limiting example, various aspects of this disclosure provide communication network architectures, systems, and methods for supporting a dynamically configurable communication network comprising a complex array of both static and moving communication nodes (e.g., the Internet of moving things, autonomous vehicle networks, etc.). For example, a communication network, or one or more nodes thereof, implemented in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure provide for controlling data transfer through a network of moving things in a manner that reduces unnecessarily utilization of communication bandwidth and/or financial resources.
