Abstract
Vehicles are part of people's life in modern society, into which
more and more high-tech devices are integrated, and a common
platform for inter-vehicle communication is necessary to realize
an intelligent transportation system supporting safe driving,
dynamic route scheduling, emergency message dissemination, and
traffic condition monitoring. TrafficView, which is a part of the
e-Road project, defines a framework to disseminate and gather
information about the vehicles on the road. Using such a system
will provide a vehicle driver with road traffic information, which
helps driving in situations as foggy weather, or finding an
optimal route in a trip several miles long. This paper describes
the basic design of TrafficView and different algorithms used in
the system.
