With the unparalleled growth of motor vehicles, traffic accident between pedestrians and vehicles is one of the most serious issues in the word-wild. Plenty of injuries and fatalities are caused by the traffic accidents and crashes. The connected vehicular ad hoc network as an emerging approach which has the potential to reduce and even avoid accidents have been focused on by many researchers. ...

The systems in which information and communication technologies and systems engineering concepts are utilized to develop and improve transportation systems of all kinds are called “The Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)”. ITS integrates information, communications, computers and other technologies and uses them in the field of transportation to build an integrated system of people, roads ...

Now a day’s Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is an emerging technology. Mobility management is one of the most challenging research issues for VANETs to support variety of intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications. VANETs are getting importance for inter-vehicle communication, because they allow the communication among vehicles without any infrastructure, configuration effort, and wi...

A Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) is categorized as a Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) which delivers wireless network servies with an aim to improve road safety and enhance driving comfort. Diverse applications of Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks such as infotainment, road safety and public safety have made VANETs as a notable and emerging area of research and development. As of now, numerous vehicular...

In this work we describe VIVAGr, a graphicaloriented real time visualization tool for vehicular ad-hoc network connectivity graphs. This tool enables the effective synthesis of structural, topological, and dynamic characteristics of VANET graphs, with a variety of parameters that affect the shape and characteristics of a vehicular ad hoc network (wireless range, mobility models, road-network to...
