Abstract	This paper proposes a client-server network architecture for safe pilgrimage in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The proposed architecture allows for continuous tracking and trip planning of shuttle-bus during its journey to the holy city of Makkah using assisted GPS. For personnel identification the architecture supports RFID technology. The proposed RFID technology is Java contactless card that enables both bus drivers and travel agencies to prevent unauthorized passengers to board the bus and to supervise authorized passengers during breaks. Furthermore Java card based system facilitates offline and online passengers identifications at the various checking points by the Saudi authorities. Wireless access to the internet is a vital layer in the proposed architecture as it allows for tracking, trip planning and on-line identity verification. Experimental results for wireless access to the internet show that HSPA is better than WiMAX as it offers acceptable quality of service at vehicle speed that exceeds 120kmph.
