To address the need for autonomous control of remote and distributed mobile systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications are rapidly gaining attention from both academia and industry. M2M communications have recently been deployed in smart grid, home networking, health care, and vehicular networking environments. This paper focuses on M2M communications in the vehicular networking context and investigates areas where M2M principles can improve vehicular networking. Since connected vehicles are essentially a network of machines that are communicating, preferably autonomously, vehicular networks can benefit a lot from M2M communications support. The M2M paradigm enhances vehicular networking by supporting large-scale deployment of devices, cross-platform networking, autonomous monitoring and control, visualization of the system and measurements, and security. We also present some of the challenges that still need to be addressed to fully enable M2M support in the vehicular networking environment. Of these, component standardization and data security management are considered to be the most significant challenges.

Clustering is one of the key technologies in vehicular networks. Constructing and maintaining stable clusters is a challenging task in high mobility environments. DWCM (Distributed and Weighted Clustering based on Mobility Metrics) is proposed in this paper based on the d-hop dominating set of the network. Each vehicle is assigned a priority that describes the cluster relationship. The cluster structure is determined according to the d-hop dominating set, where the vehicles in the d-hop dominating set act as the cluster head nodes. In addition, cluster maintenance handles the cluster structure changes caused by node mobility. The rationality of the proposed algorithm is proven. Simulation results in the NS-2 and VanetMobiSim integrated environment demonstrate the performance advantages.

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are highly dynamic and unstable due to the heterogeneous nature of the communications, intermittent links, high mobility and constant changes in network topology. Currently, some of the most important challenges of VANETs are the scalability problem, congestion, unnecessary duplication of data, low delivery rate, communication delay and temporary fragmentation. Many recent studies have focused on a hybrid mechanism to disseminate information implementing the store and forward technique in sparse vehicular networks, as well as clustering techniques to avoid the scalability problem in dense vehicular networks. However, the selection of intermediate nodes in the store and forward technique, the stability of the clusters and the unnecessary duplication of data remain as central challenges. Therefore, we propose an adaptable destination-based dissemination algorithm (DBDA) using the publish/subscribe model. DBDA considers the destination of the vehicles as an important parameter to form the clusters and select the intermediate nodes, contrary to other proposed solutions. Additionally, DBDA implements a publish/subscribe model. This model provides a context-aware service to select the intermediate nodes according to the importance of the message, destination, current location and speed of the vehicles; as a result, it avoids delay, congestion, unnecessary duplications and low delivery rate.

This paper comes out with the study on sensing data collection strategy in a Software-Defined Mobile Edge vehicular networking. The two cooperative data dissemination are Direct Vehicular cloud mode and edge cell trajectory prediction decision mode. In direct vehicular cloud, the vehicle observe its neighboring vehicles and sets up vehicular cloud for cooperative sensing data collection, the data collection output can be transmitted from vehicles participating in the cooperative sensing data collection computation to the vehicle on which the sensing data collection request originate through V2V communication. The vehicle on which computation originate will reassemble the computation out-put and send to the closest RSU. The SDMEVN (Software Defined Mobile Edge Vehicular Network) Controller determines how much effort the sensing data collection request requires and calculates the number of RSUs required to support coverage of one RSU to the other. We set up a simulation scenario based on realistic traffic and communication features and demonstrate the scalability of the proposed solution.

Future network architectures such as Named Data Networking (NDN) were born to change the way data can be transmitted from current host-centric network technologies to information-centric network technologies. Recently, many studies are being conducted to graft Vehicular NDN to the communication network technology of smart vehicles including connected vehicles. Explosion of data traffic due to Interest/Data packet broadcasting in Vehicular NDN environment is a very important problem to be solved in order to realize VNDN-based data communication. In this paper, the generation of data packet copies according to the increase in network size, vehicle speed, and frequency of interest packets in VNDN network is simulated and evaluated using ndnSIM, in order to show how severe the data broadcast storm phenomenon. The CDP(Copies of Data Packets) increased proportionally in the increase of network size or Interest frequency.

최근 이슈가 되고 있는 자율주행차(Autonomous vehicle 또는 Self-driving car)를 실현하기 위해서는, 다양한 환경에서도 차량에 대한 끊김 없는 연결을 제공하는 커넥티드카(Connected car) 기술이 필수적이다. 현재 커넥티드카를 구현하기 위한 차량 네트워크(Vehicular network) 기술은 교통시스템 인프라 기반의 단일홉(Single-hop) 무선통신 기술이 주를 이루고 있다. 이러한 단일홉 통신은 커버리지가 교통시스템 인프라가 구축된 지역으로 제한된다. 따라서 차량 네트워크가 현재보다 더욱 넓은 지역을 커버하기 위해서는 차량 자체가 이동형 라우터 역할을 수행하여 차량 간의 전달을 통해 정보를 원거리로 전달할 수 있는 다중홉(Multi-hop) 통신 도입이 필요하다. 다중홉 차량 네트워크는 차량의 높은 동적 특성으로 인해 다수의 도전적인 기술적 이슈들을 가진다. 본고에서는 이러한 기술 이슈 중 차량 네트워크의 높은 이동성으로 발생할 수 있는 종단 노드 간 비연결성을 해결할 수 있는 기술인 지연감내형 차량 네트워킹(Delay-tolerant vehicular networking) 기술에 대한 주요 연구 동향을 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해 먼저 지연감내형 차량 네트워킹의 기술적 배경 및 주요 관련 기술들을 분석하고 이를 기반으로 향후 연구개발이 필요한 기술 이슈들을 정리한다.

The expansion of new applications and business models is being significantly fueled by the development of Fifth Generation (5G) networks, which are becoming more widely accessible. The creation of the newest intelligent vehicular networks and applications is made possible by the use of Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) and Software Defined Networking (SDN). Researchers have been concentrating on the integration of SDN and VANET in recent years, and they have examined a variety of issues connected to the architecture, the advantages of software-defined VANET services, and the new features that can be added to them. However, the overall architecture's security and robustness are still in doubt and have received little attention. Furthermore, new security threats and vulnerabilities are brought about by the deployment and integration of novel entities and a number of architectural components. In this study, we comprehensively examine the good and negative effects of the most recent SDN-enabled vehicular network topologies, focusing on security and privacy. We examine various security flaws and attacks based on the existing SDVN architecture. Finally, a thorough discussion of the unresolved concerns and potential future study directions is provided.

VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc Network), an example of an ad hoc vehicular networks, becomes one of the popular research areas together with the self-driving cars and the connected cars. In terms of the VANET implementation, the traditional TCP/IP protocol stack could be applied to VANET. Recently, CCN (Content Centric Networking) shows better possibility to apply to VANET, called VCCN (VANET over CCN). CCN maintains several data tables including CS (Content Store) which keeps track of the currently requested content segments. When the CS becomes full and new content should be stored in CS, a replacement algorithm is needed. This paper compares and contrasts four replacement algorithms. In addition, it analyzes the transmission characteristics in diverse network conditions. According to the simulation results, LRU replacement algorithm shows better performances than the remaining three algorithms. In addition, even the size of CS is small, the network maintains a reasonable transmission performance. As the CS size becomes larger, the transmission rate increases proportionally. The transmission performance decreases when the network is crowded as well as the number of transmission hops becomes large.

This paper proposes mobility management schemes providing Internet session continuity to moving vehicles in the V2I (Vehicle-to-Infrastructure) environment of the vehicular communication networks. Since PMIPv6 is localized mobility management protocol, PMIPv6 can not be directly applied to the vehicular communication network requiring global mobility coverage. Therefore, in this paper, we derive two scenarios of applying PMIPv6 to vehicular communication network environment and propose PMIPv6-based global mobility management schemes for those scenarios. Through simulations, we show that the proposed schemes can significantly decrease the Internet service discontinuity.
