Garcia Macias.; Restricted to subscribers or individual electronic text purchasers; Also available in print N2 - A vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a non-infrastructure based network that does not rely on a central administration for communication between vehicles. The flexibility of VANETs opens the door to a myriad of applications; however, there are also a number of computer communication challenges that await researchers and engineers who are serious about their implementation and deployment. This book tackles the prevalent research challenges that hinder a fully deployable vehicular network. It presents a unified treatment of the various aspects of VANETs and is essential for not only university professors, but also for researchers working in the automobile industry UR - http://ezproxy.alfaisal.edu/login?url=http://services.igi-global.com/resolvedoi/resolve.aspx?doi=10.4018/978-1-61520-913-2 ER -
