The VANET (Vehicular Ad hoc Network) is a collection of mobile nodes forming a temporary network on variable topology, operating without base station and without centralized administration. The characteristics of VANET network that distinguishes it from other ad hoc networks, such as high mobility and communication with the infrastructure to support security or comfort applications, have prompted...
In this work a distributed algorithm for the optimization of signal setting on urban network is proposed. The Traffic Signal Synchronization is a traffic engineering technique of matching the green light times for a series of intersections to enable the maximum number of vehicles to pass through, thereby reducing stops and delays experienced by motorists. Synchronizing Traffic Signals ensures a better...
In this work an algorithm for the optimization of signal setting on urban network is proposed. Signal setting are designed based on a given flow in the network. However, the flow in the network is also influenced by the route choice decisions. This paper deals with traffic signal setting with demand assignment. All approaches proposed in literature to address this problem are based on equilibrium...
In this paper, we evaluate and compare the performance of single-copy and multiple-copy routing protocols in a realistic Vehicular Delay Tolerant Network (VDTN) scenario.

The performance is analyzed using delivery probability, overhead ratio, average latency, average number of hops and average buffer time metrics...
This thesis puts forward a bus signal priority assessment index system, which including bus traffic efficiency, intersection traffic efficiency, implementation difficulty factors of methods and so on. Because there are some missing, uncertain or fuzzy indices, and relevance between indices. And decision-makers would have their subjective preferences. The thesis then puts forward a bus signal priority...
Vehicle Ad hoc Network (VANET) is an emerging technology and a new application of mobile Ad Hoc technology in the field of traffic. As the simulation experiments cost less manpower and material resources and they are easy to reproduce the same scenario, VANET simulation technology has become a focus of scholars. But node mobility is strictly limited in the realistic traffic environment and fast moving...

Traffic congestion on multi-lane roadway has been a global issue recently. Numerous control strategies have been proposed to mitigate the traffic congestion. This paper introduced an improved control model that integrated both ramp and mainstream on multi-lane roadways. The basic model proposed by Papa Georgiou was firstly introduced, and then the improved control model taking both ramp and mainstream...
In previous work, we proposed a Message Suppression (MS) method for Vehicular Delay Tolerant Networking (Vehicular-DTN) considering Epidemic routing protocol.

In order to evaluate the performance of MS method, we use Direct Delivery, Spray and Wait and Epidemic as...
Named Data Networking (NDN) is a data-centric architecture designed for the future Internet. Existing works show that NDN brings significant performance improvement for typical content-centric applications, and can also fit the mobile environment well. However, directly applying NDN to Vehicular Ad hoc NETworks (VANETs) is confronted with great challenges due to the high mobility of vehicles. Most...

For the simulations, we used IEEE 802.11p standard, Two Ray Ground Propagation Loss Model and sent multiple CBR flows over...
In this paper, based on an in-depth analysis of Geographical Routing Protocol (GRP), especially its next hop selection, we present an improvement for the strategy of next hop selection with a joint consideration of distance factor and hierarchical quadrant. Based on the next hop selection strategy, an Improved Geographic Routing Protocol (IGRP) has also been proposed in this paper, which has a higher...
This paper presents considerations regarding the benefits obtained by implementing traffic control measures on an inter-urban road network. The considerations are based on the results obtained by simulating traffic scenarios on a model road network. These scenarios involve: heavy traffic, over—capacity of the network; medium traffic, under-capacity of the network, but involving an incident. The results...
Media streaming in automotive environments is becoming more important with the proliferation of 3G/4G technologies and the general demand for consuming Internet content in cars. Especially the rising popularity of Music on Demand and Media Cloud Storage services pushes automotive manufactures efforts to provide decent music streaming capabilities in vehicles. Two major issues have to be tackled to...
Geographic routing in Vehicular Sensor Networks (VSNs) has been considered as an efficient and scalable approach since it exploits location information instead of topology information to route data packets. Geographic routing requires sources to be aware of the location information of destinations. Many solutions have been proposed to provide the location information of destinations in ad hoc and...

Discrete-event simulations for futuristic unmanned vehicle (UV) systems enable a cost- and time-effective methodology for evaluating various autonomy and human-automation design parameters. Operator mental workload is an important factor to consider in such models. We suggest that the effects of operator workload on system performance can be modeled in such a simulation environment through a quantitative...
