Abstract

In this chapter we focus on decentralized solutions for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). In particular, we describe the Distributed Geographic Table (DGT), a structured overlay scheme for sharing geo-referenced information among mobile nodes. Then, we illustrate the D4V architecture, which applies the DGT to vehicular networks, to provide services like TIS.

Notes

  1. 1.

    This is an approximation. In fact, owing to node mobility, the local distribution is likely to be not Poisson. However, as we will consider only average values, the Poisson approximation will shown to be accurate.
