A decentralized approach for information dissemination in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks

A bee-inspired approach for information dissemination in VANETs

“…Simulation parameters related to mobility and traffic scenarios are first described. In this study, a realistic mobility scenario is used to conduct simulations [3,24,25]. The simulation parameters are described in Table 2.…”

“…When a vehicle i v observes an event j p that needs to be disseminated to other vehicles, it will generate a safety message j p m and will report to RSU. This message includes the timestamp ), ( 0 t location information, and the initial relevance value associated to a generated message at time t (by source node) is expressed by the following equation [3]:…”

“…Another important scenario concerns exchanging information between vehicles to prevent traffic jams from growing too fast. For example, a vehicle having embedded traffic detection sensors can send traffic information to its following vehicles that can take preventive actions to avoid congested areas [1,2,3].…”

Energy evaluation of AID protocol in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

“…Ongoing work concerns the comparison of this algorithm with other adaptive techniques (Harutyunyan and Opatrny, 2014;Ali Khan et al, 2011) that are used in intra-and inter-protocol learning algorithms (Williams and Camp, 2002). Furthermore, we are investigating swarm and artificial intelligence (Bakhouya and Gaber, 2014;Maity and Hati, 2012) and its applications as a great source of inspiration for developing adaptive approaches in Ad hoc Networks …”

“…However, in dynamic networks, it is difficult even impossible to determine a priori these parameters. Adjusting these thresholds on-the-fly have been proposed in (Lloret et al, 2008a(Lloret et al, , 2008bTseng et al, 2003;Yassein et al, 2011;Medetov et al, 2014). For nodes to decide to retransmit or reject, they need local information obtained through periodical hello messages and from other protocols such as routing protocols.…”
