1. A method performed by a computing device containing a processor and a computer-readable tangible storage device, the method comprising:
- respectively managing, by the computing device, a plurality of first regions in a geographic space by a plurality of first subsystems; and
respectively managing, by the computing device, a plurality of second regions in the geographic space by a plurality of second subsystems,managing, by the computing device, a moving object from among at least a candidate first subsystem of the plurality of first subsystems and a candidate second subsystem of the plurality of second subsystems based on the location of the moving object within the first region managed by the candidate first subsystem and the second region managed by the candidate second subsystem;
wherein the plurality of first subsystems and the plurality of second subsystems are further operable to manage moving objects that travel routes in the plurality of the first regions and the plurality of the second regions, respectively; and
wherein the plurality of first regions and the plurality of second regions are arranged such that at least one of the plurality of the first regions covers a border of at least one of the plurality of the second regions and at least one of the plurality of the second regions covers a border of at least one of the plurality of the first regions.

Abstract
A system comprising a plurality of first subsystems respectively operable to manage a plurality of first regions in a geographic space; and a plurality of second subsystems respectively operable to manage a plurality of second regions in the geographic space, wherein the plurality of first regions and the plurality of second regions are arranged such that at least one of the first regions covers a border of one or more of the second regions and at least of the second regions covers a border of one or more of the first regions.
