Alerting drivers about incoming emergency vehicles and their routes can greatly improve their travel time in congested cities, while reducing the risk of accidents due to distractions. This paper contributes to this goal by proposing Messiah, an Android application capable of informing regular vehicles about incoming emergency vehicles like ambulances, police cars and fire brigades. This is made possible...
This article presents an Android application for safety driving based on OsmAnd, an open source platform offering offline maps and navigation. Our application extends OsmAnd to achieved smart navigation features by creating a network of vehicles. These features allow informing regular vehicles about incoming emergency vehicles, which include ambulances, police cars and fire brigades. The goal is to...
Intersection management is one of the challenges of vehicular communications in urban environments. Maximizing message delivery at intersections requires gaining awareness about when the vehicle is at the center of intersection, as buildings tend to obstruct wireless signals especially in the 5 GHz band. This paper addresses the issue of communications on different types of intersections by characterizing...
Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) is a communication architecture enabling connectiviety in a topology with unregular end-to-end network connection. DTN enables communication in environments with cross-connectivity, large delays and delivery time variations, and a high error rate. DTN can be used in vehicular networks where public transport get involved. This research aims to analyze the role of public...
