“…Data acquisition aims at gathering data relevant to safety, traffic information, infotainment, from a given area of interest from all the sources (vehicle's internal sensors, global positioning system, inter-vehicle communication, body sensors, WSN, and different devices such as cellular phones, sensors and actuators, traffic lights and road signals) located on streets and highways. Several data collection schemes based on the division of the roads into groups of contiguous clusters and the use of a cluster-head have been proposed in the literature (Brik, Lagraa, Cherroun, & Lakas, 2013;Chang, Lin, & Chen, 2008;Palazzi, Pezzoni, & Ruiz, 2012). Other efforts have been focusing on dynamically collecting data based on the vehicle's mobility and network topology changes (He & Zhang, 2014;Soua & Afifi, 2013).…”
