Vehicular networks aimed toward providing roadside services such as traffic alerts, estimated time to reach a destination, alternative routes, and in general improve the efficiency and safety on the road are emerging in both the United States and Europe. Information exchange in such networks occurs between vehicles (inter-vehicle communications) in an ad hoc manner and also with roadside base s...

$EVWUDFW2 Vehicular networks are promising in providing Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication, thus allowing for several useful services on roads related to safety applications as well as entertainment applications. However, a number of constraints can impact the reliability of vehicular networks applications. The general constraints concern the high mobilit...

The vehicular cloud is a promising new paradigm, where vehicular networking and mobile cloud computing are elaborately integrated to enhance the quality of vehicular information services. Pseudonym is a resource for vehicles to protect their location privacy, which should be efficiently utilized to secure vehicular clouds. However, only a few existing architectures of pseudonym systems take fle...

The vehicular flow in the urban street canyon is considered. The classical field description is used in the modelling of the vehicular movement and of gaseous mixture in generic urban street canyon. The dynamical variables include vehicular densities, velocities, and emissivities: of pollutants, heat and exhaust gases, as well as standard mixture components' variables: densities, velocities, te...

Scientific Contributions: Recent developments in the automotive industry point to a new emerging domain of vehicular wireless networks, which include not only vehicle-to-vehicle communications but also vehicle-to-infrastructure communications. Vehicular networks are envisioned to be a critical component of future large-scale, heterogeneous Internet architecture which not only covers traditional...

A Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) is a form of mobile ad hoc network in which vehicles are equipped with wireless communication devices. Vehicular ad hoc networks have been attracting the interest of both academic and industrial communities on account of their important role in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). VANETs are expected to be able to significantly reduce the number of road a...

Efficient content distribution is one of the emerging applications in vehicular networks. To provide scalable content distribution in vehicular networks, Chord peer-to-peer overlay could be applied. Most P2P protocols, including Chord, are designed for wired-line network, and might perform poorly in mobile networks. Mobile Chord (MChord) is proposed to enhance the P2P performance over vehicular...

Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) demands secure communication in Vehicular Networks is that allows vehicles to communicate. Immense amount of research is going on both in academia and by industry. Frequent handovers are realized in vehicular communication because of the high speed of vehicles and hence there is always a requirement of secure and fast authentication for a seamless handove...

Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet. To resolve the challenges caused by the increasing transportation issues, we present a novel multi-layered vehicular data cloud platform by using cloud computing and IoT technologies. Two innovative vehicular data cloud services such as an intelligen...

A wireless ad-hoc network is a decentralized type of wireless network [7]. InVANET, or Intelligent Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networking, defines an intelligent way of using Vehicular Networking [7]. InVANET combines different ad-hoc networking technologies for easy, accurate, effective and simple communication between vehicles on dynamic environment. Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks are expected to implement a...
