Abstract:Vehicular ad hoc networks have received a lot of attention in recent years. This attention is due to two reasons.
First and foremost, there are a number of real-life applications that become possible in the presence of
such an ad-hoc infrastructure. Examples include increasing road safety by reducing the number of accidents
as well as reducing their impact in case of non-avoidable accidents, improving local traffic ow and efficiency
of road traffic, and offering comfort and business applications to driver and passengers. Second, it is now
technically possible to build such a network. Recent developments in radios, coupled with signicant research
work in the area of mobile ad-hoc networks, make it likely to build such applications within five to ten years.
