In recent years, we have witnessed a growing interest in Vehicular Networks from both the research community and industry. Several potential applications of Vehicular Networks are envisioned such as road safety and security, streaming services, traffic monitoring and driving comfort, just to mention a few. It is critical that the existence of convenience or driving comfort services do not negatively affect the performance of safety services. In essence, the dissemination of safety services or the discovery of convenience applications require the communication among service providers and service requesters through constrained bandwidth resources. Therefore, service discovery techniques for vehicular networks must efficiently use the available common resources. In this paper, we present a bandwidth-efficient and scalable hybrid adaptive service discovery protocol (VSDP) for Vehicular Networks. VSDP aims at providing high success ratio while guaranteeing low response time and good scalability when the number of requests increases. Our proposed protocol finds the service provider and its routing information simultaneously which results in overall bandwidth savings. It uses diverse channels to exchange discovery and routing packets, thereby decreasing the congestion on single channels and decreasing the delay of service discovery. Our proposed service discovery protocol adapts the advertisement zone size of service providers based on an efficient adaptation mechanism that takes into consideration network condition and application requirements. The adaptation process is based on an adjustment technique and a prediction technique. We discuss the implementation of our protocol, present its proof of correctness as well as the performance evaluation through an extensive set of simulation experiments and using different mobility models. Our results show the scalability of our protocol. They indicate that our techniques can achieve significant success rate (more than 90 percent), while guaranteeing low response time (in the order of milliseconds) and low bandwidth usage when compared to existing service discovery techniques.

“…A more radical approach is adopted in [67], where the authors do not integrate service discovery with a well-known protocol, but build their own multicast routing protocol named HESED, which also supports service discovery. In HESED multicast routing is used both for service requests and service responses.…”

Abstract-This paper surveys research in service advertising, discovery and selection for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and related issues. We include a categorization of service discovery architectures for MANETs and their modes of operation, presenting their merits and drawbacks. We pay particular attention to cross-layer service discovery a special class of efficient service discovery approaches for MANETs. We also present security issues and discuss service description options, service selection mechanisms and service state maintenance techniques. We conclude with a summary, an outlook and directions for future research in this area.

“…Some of them were based on which layer of the network the service discovery protocol is integrated. In this category, network-layer-based service discovery protocols have been proposed [3], [6] and application-layer-based service discovery protocols have been proposed in [7]. Other protocols have focused on service information accumulation strategies.…”

The characteristics of Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have motivated us in the design of an efficient service discovery protocol that considers the capabilities of such networks. In this paper we propose a novel service discovery technique for WMNs. Our approach reduces the discovery overhead by integrating the discovery information in the routing layer. Based on an adaptively adjusted advertisement zone of service providers, we have combined proactive and reactive service discovery strategies to come up with an efficient hybrid adaptive service discovery protocol for WMNs. Our protocol optimizes the network overhead. We will show that our proposed protocol is scalable and that it outperforms existing service discovery protocols in terms of message overhead.
