Abstract

Intelligent vehicular ad hoc networks (InVANETs) provide an effective communication between vehicles with dynamic mobility. This paper enhances the traffic management system using mobile agents called as Intellect Mobile Agent (IMA). IMA is used to identify the traffic in the path from source to destination and provides an effective way to transport through less traffic scenario. IMA designed with an algorithm which calculates the amount of traffic as a parameter and finds a least path to reach the destination. The vehicle sends the IMA with the destination node which traces the traffic path. IMA identifies the path with least traffic using probability calculation and directs the vehicle to reach the destination.
