Social-based Cooperation of Vehicles for Data Dissemination of Critical Urban Events
Critical urban events need to be efficiently handled, for instance, through
rapid notification. VANETs are a promising choice in supporting notification of
information on arbitrary critical events. Although the dynamicity of VANETs
compromises the dissemination process, the connections among vehicles based on
users' social interests allow for optimizing message exchange and data
dissemination. This paper introduces SOCIABLE, a robust data dissemination
system for critical urban events that operates in a SIoV network. It is based
on vehicles' community with common interests and/or similar routines and
employs social influence of vehicles according to their network location to
select relay vehicles. In a comparative analysis on NS3 with the MINUET system,
SOCIABLE achieved 36.56% less packets transmitted in a dense VANET and a
maximum packet delivery delay of 28ms in a sparse VANET, delivering critical
event data in a real-time and robust way without overloading the~network.Comment: Accepted for presentation at the IEEE Global Communications
