The aim of the job is to develop an information service for road assistance, that will inform to a client that needs help how long he has to wait and what emergency unit will take care of him. The architecture of the information service allows to connect with many road assistance units that are in different locations, choosing the one nearest to the client to take care of him. The way the architecture works should be: 1)The client has an emergency, he contacts with a central server and sends his personal info and his geographical position (simulate de info) 2)Once the server receives the info, it interrogates the road assistance units reporting the event. 3)Each road assistance unit answers with info about the distance on the event. 4)The central server choose, depending on the answers received, what unit will take care of the event, answering then the client request.
