The ferment of academic and industrial interest in road safety requirements and intelligent traffic control has spawned the concept of vehicular networks. These are wireless networks spontaneously formed between moving vehicles equipped with wireless interfaces of similar or different technologies that allow vehicle-to-vehicle or vehicle-to-infrastructure communications. Researchers from across Europe look at such aspects as applications and services, heterogeneous communications, routing, data dissemination, network mobility, security, confidence management, and market introduction and deployment strategies.
